Personal Growth & Healing:

 

The aim of the Personal Growth & Healing work with Listening With The Body is to create an awareness of how the body is supporting or hindering communication in our everyday life. We begin to see how communication in its broadest sense is the essence of life and how true contact with our environment and the people around us creates an wonderful sense of well-being and healing.

Theater Arts Workshops:

 

The Williamson Technique forms the basis for these workshops and coaching. It is suited for actors, directors and anyone connected to the creative process of theater, film, TV and radio. This technique was created by Loyd Williamson specifically to help the actor/actress' physical instrument come to life in the imaginary world. It addresses how the world of the play comes alive in the actors/actress' body and how behavior flows out effortlessly and powerfully.
