Van de website:
The pedagogy is based on the dynamics of movement, involving the body as the primary element of recognition of the living being, through the re-enactment of everything which moves, from life to the stage.

The first year applies universal laws of movement to acting and to devised theater. It explores different dramatic territories recognised in the history of theatre, reinterpreting them in the context of present ideas and values.

The first year is devoted to observation, of the world and of the movements in it. The process moves from silent psychological exercises to a point where the student builds a character, going through stages of identifying with nature, animals, colours, sounds and words; and discovering the art of acting with masks.

All classes are inter-related and follow the same gradual progress in the work. Together they form a coherent whole, based mainly on the analysis of movements and improvisation.’

Ze heeft veel zin om met alle kennis en training van de afgelopen 2 jaar weer aan het werk te gaan in zowel Nederland als Frankrijk.
