This course can only be taken by professional actors or those with a firmly established training. It will use the technique taught in the first 2 weeks to study scenes and establish character psycho-physically driven behavior in week 4. Weekly classes allow time for integration and homework.
BACKROUND:
The psycho-physical system was something I developed, testing it with friends and RADA alumni. I use it regularly in all the media I work in, but find it particularly useful for fast characterization for game, and deep emotional connection with characters I play in TV and film. I found out recently the foundational principals has parallels with the Pesso Boyden System Psychomotor approach ( https://pbsp.com/ ). As the effect of PBSP therapy is scientifically validated, I understand my technique is evidence based. However, I keep away from therapy, and stick to character exploration and embodiment. For other frames of reference think of Michael Chekov’s Psychological gesture taken further…
That said, this can tap into powerful stuff and can lead to powerful revelations. If you are triggered by our work you should cease taking the class. You will always have control over how far you dig.
