CLASS #1

LEARN ABOUT OUR TWO NERVOUS SYSTEMS AND HOW ONE CAN LEAD TO A SENSE OF FIGHT, FLIGHT OR FREEZE, AND THE OTHER CAN LEAD TO A SENSE OF CALM AND SAFETY.

THEN LEARN THE CORE BREATH PRACTICE, INCLUDING A SHORT “POCKET PRACTICE”, SO YOU HAVE A WAY TO QUICKLY CALM YOUR NERVES.

CLASS #2

LEARN HOW TO TUCK AWAY PERSONAL WORRIES SO THAT YOU CAN BE COMPLETELY FREE TO PLAY IN THE MOMENT.

AFTER BEING GUIDED THROUGH THE PRACTICE OF LETTING GO, DISCOVER HOW THIS SAME PRACTICE CAN HELP YOU LET GO OF YOUR CHARACTER FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR OWN EMOTIONAL HEALTH AND TO KEEP THE WORK FRESH.

CLASS #3

LEARN HOW TO RECONNECT TO YOUR BODY AND FIND PRESENCE WHEN NERVES HAVE YOU FEELING OUT-OF-BODY. THIS PRACTICE CONNECTS US TO OUR OWN SELVES, HELPFUL FOR STAYING IN THE SCENE.

WE’LL ALSO TOUCH ON SIMILAR MINDFULNESS PRACTICES, AND LEARN A SHORT “POCKET PRACTICE” TO QUICKLY GET GROUNDED WHEN FEELING STRESSED AND OVERWHELMED.

CLASS #4

LEARN HOW TO ACCEPT WHATEVER FEELING COMES UP. AS ACTORS EMOTIONS ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF OUR WORK. THIS PRACTICE HELPS US TO TUNE INTO WHAT WE FEEL AND ALLOW THEM, RATHER THAN WILL THEM. IT LEADS TO MORE AUTHENTICITY IN OUR WORK.

BY USING A MINDFULNESS PRACTICE CALLED R.A.I.N. WE EXPLORE FEELINGS WITHOUT ATTACHMENT.

CLASS #5

LEARN WHY SELF-CARE AND THE PRACTICE OF SELF-COMPASSION IS SO IMPORTANT FOR ACTORS. SO MANY PERFORMERS FEEL THAT THEY ARE NOT ENOUGH. THIS CLASS EXPLORES WHY WE HAVE THOSE FEELINGS AND HOW WE CAN OFFSET THEM.

AS WELL AS THE GUIDED PRACTICE, WE’LL EXPLORE THE BENEFITS OF SHOWING KINDNESS TO OTHERS.

CLASS #6

LEARN THE CONNECTION BETWEEN GRATITUDE AND SUCCESS! GRATITUDE IS A PRACTICE OF ABUNDANCE THAT ALSO RELEASES THE FEEL GOOD HORMONES LIKE DOPAMINE.

AFTER LEARNING THE GRATITUDE PRACTICE, WE’LL EXPLORE HOW GIVING BACK IS BENEFICIAL TO ACTORS. AND AS ALWAYS, WE’LL LEARN A “POCKET PRACTICE” FOR GRATITUDE, SO IT’S ALWAYS AT HAND.
