Acting

Two components that bring acting to life appear to contradict each other: control and freedom. Control over your own actions in word and body, intellect and emotion; over the knowledge into whom your own person could be transformed. Freedom to slip into it completely and rely on everything controlled and controllable only as a well of treasure. Freedom to act from a dynamic center, from which actions may emerge spontaneously as one's own truths.

By gaining control over your own movements, you're allowed to explore range and potential, and ultimately become master of your actions. That doesn't necessarily mean athletic spectacles but rather to cultivate a finely tuned perception of yourself and your surroundings, from which clarity about oneself and others arises. It is here that a human discovers flexibility in his physical body and empathy in his soul. The gentle learning experience in Feldenkrais allows the self image to grow with organic vitality, open, assertive, reflected. Controlling your actions from the inside—rather than being controlled by others or exteriors—encourages the kind of freedom that fuels every new movement as an authentic property. As part of a sentient performer the voice molds into an anchor and congruent resonance body of inner vibrations. Finally, the visible and audible embodiment within the imagined creates authenticity, so that the audience finds itself witnessing the human being.
