(Unterrichtssprache/Course language German & English)“I align a particular animal to a character, in the way in which they move or behave.” - NICOLE KIDMAN (Q: Backstage)
"The astonishing structure of the body and the amazing actions it can perform are some of the greatest miracles of existence. Each phase of movement, every small transference of weight, every single gesture of any part of the body reveals some feature of our inner life.“ - RUDOLF LABAN
Tiere bieten eine unerschöpfliche Inspirationsquelle für Schauspieler in ihrem Ziel ein spezifisches Verhalten für eine Rolle zu entdecken. Die Arbeit mit Tieren ist ein wunderbares Werkzeug in unserem Bestreben eine Rolle zu verkörpern, wenn diese sich von unserem alltäglichen Rhythmus, unserer Art sich zu bewegen und unserem Temprament unterscheidet und diese Eigenschaften besitzt, die uns auf den ersten Blick fremd und unzugänglich erscheinen.
Animal work is a wonderful tool for creating a physical life different from our own and essential work in our quest to create a character. We base our work on animal movements and behaviour through detailed observation. We become the animal totally. You will find that you truly become some one other than yourself. Down to the way you lift your foot and scratch your ear.

Through the detailed exercises in the workshops and his incredible curated eye, he provides generous individual feedback which has been pivotal on my acting journey.

His knowledge, expertise and intuitive eye is unsurpassed.” – Alaa Taha (Playwright/Actress)

He has fused his talent for creating workshops, intensives and "happenings" of all kinds, with his own experience as an instructor, and his cultivated, keen judgement and good taste.

“I do think there’s a lot about a dog that we can learn from..And I do put the dog into a lot of my characters because a dog, if you watch them, they’re so funny to watch. They speak with their eyes and their body, and I find that fascinating to observe.” - TOM HARDY (Q: Vanity Fair)
