Is it only for actors?
No. During the years of studying in theatre academies, actors and directors go through deep and thoughtful self-exploration. To act as a character you have to know your own traits, habits, emotions, and expressions.
The actor's work is psychological in many ways.
We offer you a chance to immerse in your own personality to grow your ability to act.
This journey is about you.

About the course
The program by Svetlana Efremova offers a small theory part and mostly practical exercises.
Svetlana is a professional Acting Coach of Meisner acting technique, the basic component of most acting courses in the leading universities.
Meisner technique became popular in the 80th. Like most contemporary methodologists, Meisner took the Stanislavsky method as the baseline. But unlike Stanislavsky, he decided to eliminate the component of "emotional memory". The core of Meisner's technique is the repetition exercises, based on the actors' close interaction.

This course will help an actor to gain a huge and diverse artistic pallet since Meisner proposed to base the acting on the partner's emotional state and his/her demonstration of feelings. The acting becomes natural, therefore believable and efficient. The "feeling of truth" is born not from the ratio, but from the empathy here and now.
In fact, actors themselves are very fond of this technique, because it allows you to "switch off your head" and gives unprecedented creative freedom. And it is very important that an actor is a personality themselves, because their acting is based on their inner world: if there is no person beneath, then there is no art.
