Alexander Technique for Actors

April 7 – May 12

*NEW OFFERING!* Actors are story tellers.  We use all of ourselves to tell those stories – our minds, our hearts, our life experiences, and our bodies. The practice of the Alexander Technique teaches us to integrate emotional truth with physical behavior in a way that can be sustained in performance. As performers, we develop and rely on vocal and physical habits to tell our stories. As we become aware of these habituated responses, we can learn to choose what is helpful and what is no longer needed.  Come with a beginner’s mind and take a moment to pause, both in your mind and body, and see what you discover. 

Time: Mondays, 7:00PM – 8:30PM 
Price: $375
Registration Deadline: March 31

FAQs

Does Everyman offer financial assistance or scholarships?

Need-Based Scholarship Support
We encourage you to apply for a need-based scholarship by completing this FORM. Our need-based Creative Journey scholarship awards range to cover a portion of the tuition. While funding is limited, we work hard to accept as many students as possible throughout the year. Scholarship Applications can be submitted on a rolling basis.

 

Once I purchase a class, what is my next step?

Once a class is purchased, Everyman Theatre’s Education Team will reach out with a Welcome email and Registration form at least one-week before the class starts. Please complete the registration form within three business days. 

Will there be a final performance?

Youth class experiences: We welcome the chance for families and loved ones to share in the creative growth and artistic creations that students undergo during a class experience through a culminating event. This culminating event may also be an in-class performance for students at the end of their progression and at the discretion of our Teaching Artist. 

Early childhood classes: Each class series ends with an open class, where family members and loved ones join their student for a class session with their student. For youth classes (K-8), each class series culminates in a final sharing or performance on the last day of class where students can share the skills and projects, they have been developing over the class sessions. Each final sharing will look different based on the grade level and course content. More detailed information about each culminating event will be shared with enrolled families during the class series. Culminating events may also be an in-class performance for students at the end of their progression and at the discretion of our Teaching Artist.
