Building an Unshakable Foundation with Self
When we use our bodies to play a role, we may lose ourselves in the process. Actors may be adept at getting into character, yet dangerously inept at getting out. This session offers a process that invites the actor to restore the natural rhythm of their breath and reintroduce their bodies to the basic movements of a daily routine. The actor can then leave vulnerability on the stage, ground themselves in a truthful reality, and walk with purpose on their path to building an unshakable foundation within.
This series is funded by the Los Angeles County Arts Ed Collective in partnership with Flourish Agenda, and the Los Angeles County Department of Arts and Culture.
