Pillar 2
Acting and Movement
Acting and Movement courses help students to become professional stage performers. Singers and repetiteurs develop improvising skills and get to know different acting methods; they learn to express themselves through movement and dance. At the end of the programme, students have acquired a range of tools to embody characters and emotions, and to communicate these to audiences.
Movement Coaching
AIMS
‘Movement Coaching’ aims to equip students with the tools and techniques needed to pursue a career in opera with the demands made by choreographers today.
FORMAT
Practice study – collective
CONTENT
The class provides different exercises to learn stage presence through movement and space. Students engage with movement as it relates to one’s own body and that of one’s partner on stage, and are encouraged to be aware of and responsive to one’s surroundings. Finally, the students learn different choreographies, in order not only to learn the movements, but also the technique of observing and analysing, which will enable them to adopt movements more quickly.
