About

In a world where our brains can barely keep up with the constant flow of information, attention is one of the skills most easily lost. It may seem that once it’s gone, there’s nothing you can do about it. But even such an elusive skill can be trained.


The “Attention” workshop is based on exercises inspired by Michael Chekhov, warm-ups used by improvisers and circus performers, and exercises from the Meisner technique.


We’ll work with impulses, improve reaction speed, learn to change the rules of the game, and get plenty of endorphins from tackling challenging tasks.

Who is it for?

For actors — to shake things up, get back to the basics, and improve your work with a scene partner.


And for anyone who wants to learn how to manage wandering thoughts.

What to expect?

During the workshop, you’ll find yourself in situations where everything seems designed to distract you. We’ll learn to stay focused, respond quickly and fully to whatever happens around us, and stay present in the moment. You’ll discover that multitasking isn’t actually that difficult.

Programme
Warm up
We warm up and activate our senses. We explore unfamiliar ways of perceiving the world and, sometimes, simply slow down and relax.
Shake-Up
We use playful exercises that make our brains pleasantly buzz. We put ourselves in the most unexpected situations and figure our way out of them.
Observations
Through partner exercises, we test whether our attention has truly been awakened — and improvise.

I can adapt any workshop to suit you and your needs. A workshop can have artistic goals or become part of a strategy session, corporate event, or training seminar.
