In this class, we will continue diving deeper into how the Alexander Technique is a pre-technique for all performers, from actors to musicians to dancers. That how becoming more mindful and present allows for integrating the intelligence of the performer's Mind, Emotions, and Body. Thus creating a balanced three-centered integrated actor from which you can create "impediments and subtle character choices."

Both classes are a 9-class commitment; make-ups for missed classes may be available.
