Theater workshop, learn how to be confident in public speaking whilst using your creativity during fun acting activitiesIn this class you'll learn how to move on stage, how to be confident with public speaking, how to use your creativity and your imagination to embody different characters. I've designed this class for it to mix necessary theatre technical skills such as placement, voices etc with fun acting activities ranging from improvisation to classical plays.It can also be adapted to any ages or level of acting. If the class is on webcam, I will design the class for it to be inventive and create a theme for each of the meetings.

Acting Technique, Theory, and Audition PreparationThere are many considerations for how one performs - from comprehensive theory and how it manifests to the physical connection between the body and mind. In our lessons we will take an individualised approach; some actors struggle with confidence, others with emotional connections, most with sincere relaxation. For the more cerebral actors, understanding the theory behind the motive helps internalise its necessity. Simplicity is a great form, but only when assumed knowingly.
As for myself, I have 11 years' experience in the field - 7 professionally - spanning theatre, commercials, musical theatre, and dance. I've performed in numerous theatres across the UK (as well as Cyprus) and have been featured in a number of international commercials.

Public Speaking for Kids (18 years and below)- tailor made classes based on student's age and backgroundIf you’re looking to help your child feel comfortable and confident speaking in front of others, my public speaking program is designed just for that. Drawing on my experience in Model United Nations and student leadership, I focus on helping kids speak naturally and authentically, rather than turning this into a grammar class.
Our sessions emphasize clear, organic communication—so kids learn to organize their thoughts, speak with confidence, and engage an audience without feeling scripted. Through a mix of activities tailored to their age, we’ll practice speaking techniques that make public speaking feel more like a conversation, not a formal lecture.
In addition to in-class activities like role-playing and group discussions, I’ll encourage them to practice outside the classroom too, whether through creating fun presentations or recording short talks. This class is all about developing a child’s unique voice and giving them the tools they need to speak comfortably and naturally in front of any group.

Acting Lessons and Drama School Audition PreparationAs an actor myself, I know how scary auditions/Drama School auditions can be. With each school requesting different skills and monologues, it can be hard knowing what works well for you as a performer and what will show you off the most.
During my lessons, we will focus on your Classical and Contemporary monologues while exploring the best audition techniques for in person or self tapes.

EVERYDAY EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE AND EMPATHY, AT THE SERVICE OF EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATIONThis training allows you to learn about the concepts of emotional intelligence & empathy with the aim of better recognizing and understanding your own emotions and those of others. Being aware of emotions allows better management of behavior in human relationships, both in the professional, private, entrepreneurial framework (...). For example, as a key to management, it makes it possible to:
• Measure the impact of emotions in team management.
• Analyze your own mode of operation to get the most out of it.
• To be able to put in place strategies to regulate his own emotions and those of his collaborators.
• Know how to approach delicate interviews taking into account the emotional factor.
• To be able to understand, recognize and name his own emotions as well as those of his collaborators.
• Discover the emotional process.
• Manage the team (the impact of emotions on communication and decision making), the emotional quotient and
leadership styles.
• Motivate and mobilize its employees over the long term, and in particular in the context of interviews "to
strong emotional potential "(reframing, motivation, problem solving, tense sessions, conflicts etc).
Emotional intelligence is a process of personal development over time. This training allows you to initiate the process, with concrete tools that can be applied on a daily basis. This training combines group activities, individual reflections, videos and scenarios.
From theory to practice with simulations. It is a question of putting in place rational and professional tools to achieve the objectives set together and overcome the blockages initially defined.
Controlled, the techniques allow:
• to rely on emotional intelligence and capitalize on the empathy communicated to better ensure that his message is better received his message or being.
• improve credibility, self-confidence and ease (verbal-bodily) with public speaking and a more fluid sense of repartee.
• defuse conflicts and enter your comfort / safety zone. In particular simple and logical techniques, which make it possible to resolve and manage violent situations in a harmonious, effective and lasting way, for example through NVC (Non Violent Communication).
• better manage negotiation situations (contrary to the stereotypes conveyed, negotiation is not only financial, but it can be small everyday events).
• Match the content and form of your message while improving the use of your emotional intelligence.
What you will get out of it:
• Better control of emotions and therefore of your way of communicating
• Better understanding of the feelings of others and the ability to lead them successfully
• Better relationships in personal and professional life thanks to superior emotional intelligence
• Less stress thanks to a better understanding of one's emotions and those of others
• Greater determination and results-oriented mindset
• Ways to develop and apply emotional intelligence in the workplace

My education was very various: my core subjects were conducting, choir, voice, piano. So it allowed me to work with children, teens and adults with quite wide range of interests and needs: some students needed/wanted to learn particular composition(s), sometimes pop songs arrangements, some were interested in “introduction” to the music, some wanted to renew skills they gained in their childhood and continue their journey to the music world.
As for singer who studied a lot about different approaches, technics and singing schools "Speech Training" was a part of the main subjects. It is extremely important to have clear pronunciation, make it sound free/relaxed (without any tension or unhealthy blocks) more confident, and emotional.
On our Speech training lessons I will help you to make your speech more clear, your voice will sound more healthy and confident.
