State of Readiness
Physical & Sound Based Workshop
Awakening organic impulses and revealing one’s inner life.
This workshop is designed to explore and cultivate the state of readiness for the actor. It is ideal for those who use their body as the key element in theatrical or creative devising processes, as well as anyone seeking to tap into new sources of physical creativity. Whether you’re an actor, dancer, or artist, this training will help you discover and enhance your creative potential.
At the heart of this training is the integration of body and physical impulse, voice and movement, emotions, and imagination. Through carefully crafted exercises based on years of practice and research in ensemble-based physical theatre, we will work with the individual, the partner, and the ensemble. This collaborative approach awakens a state of readiness that fosters connection, focus, and creative flow.
Throughout the workshop, you will deepen your awareness of internal and external rhythm, spatial awareness, and physical impulses. These elements will help you achieve a heightened state of readiness, expanding your capabilities in classical theatre acting, physical theatre, dance, and film. This training will open up new possibilities for performance, giving you a sense of aliveness and potential in your creative work.
Ultimately, the goal is to develop a presence that is open, free, and expressive. We aim to reveal a body capable of communicating emotional truth, enabling you to perform with authenticity and power. By cultivating a deep state of readiness, you will access your most authentic, vulnerable, and creatively powerful state.
