Performing arts courses (theater, improvisation, voice, ..)

From 39.25 £ /h

The theater is a popular art aiming to educate the great number, by the means of representations of societal problems. Today because of the costs that a year of courses represents, he becomes an ellitist. So much so that most actors over-think their character. The actor is not a thinker, he does, he defends, he nourishes his character, not seeking to play a role far from himself, but to create links through his experiences, his feelings, his imagination with the said character.
In the courses set up, my approach, although adapted to everyone, will be to enhance and enrich the creative process, sharing tools in order to make the activity a reality.
Talent does not last, only work counts!

Whether your goal is personal or professional, speaking is a predominantly physical activity, relying on a body, a voice, a breath, a rhythm (diction) and an emotion (the imagination and the sensations, reflecting the involvement of the speaker in his speech.

How to send a clear message? How to make the difference, to make an impression? How to regain self-confidence and control the management of his emotions?

Knowing how to speak in public is now a necessity for the company and in the company. From a personal point of view, this is a vector for better relationships and optimal messages. On the phone, in a meeting, in front of a client or a banker (...), your public speaking must be effective and efficient with clear, simple and powerful messages, creating a match between the message received and the message sent.

Simple and pragmatic tools will be presented and then put into practice for: generating listening ● making an impression ● fostering trust ● generating need ● motivating teams by explaining a strategy ● getting messages across within groups.

Controlled, the method allows:

• improve self-confidence and stress management with the development of the speaker's fluency (verbal-bodily), his public speaking and his sense of repartee and improvisation

• to work on his ease, leadership, his NLP, his charisma, his creativity and to go towards a certain personal development, through a set of scenarios

* improve the characteristics of the spoken voice (timbre, pitch, intention, flow)

Completed by basic exercises (diction, voice, presence, breathing, presentation, time management ...), role plays, improvisations and simulations will be set up.

With the key words: pronunciation, rhetoric, verbal and non-verbal communication, diction / articulation, the sense of repartee, structured speech (...).

The goal is not only to focus on verbal communication but also on nonverbal communication, so as to make the control of his body, his voice (...), a real and lasting strength.

Depending on the interaction between the trainer - coach and the one who consults, there is no single way to operate: each type of session depends on the needs and difficulties of each.

In all cases, it is very often a question, while adapting to your own needs and after having precisely diagnosed your desired objective and the blockages encountered, to combine the theory (the bases of the studied concept, for example NLP / information asymmetry / the "how to say no" / the tools of non-verbal communication or the application of kinaesthesia) and its application (through exercises and direct applications).

For example, are discussed:

- the fundamentals of public speaking: breathing, gaze and body language

- diction and elocution: rhythm and range of your voice - management of your emotions and your emotional overflow (example: stress) - work on the body, to amplify your charisma and ensure consistency between your message and your body ... with the aim of:

* Enhance your presentation and arouse interest by focusing on your strengths, your qualities ... your personality

* Match the content and form of your message

* Improve your charisma, your self-confidence and the benefits of your emotional intelligence

Postgraduate School Training & Ivy league college in the United States, specialized and worked for over 13 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication and public speaking in renowned public and private international institutions, involved in forums and conferences, and focused on two areas: training and coaching, with the key words pedagogy and careful methodology.

PLACES
- Locations: Geneva - Lausanne - Friborg - Neuchâtel - Montreux - Basel - Sion - Sierre - Morges - Bienne. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid. These sessions also seem to be perfectly unanimous since they have the advantages of live (example: quality of the interaction), without its disadvantages (example: loss of travel time) with additional advantages (example: notes that can be re-read on the chat). In this context, the videoconference sessions for which you asked me to seem to suit everyone perfectly, take place very optimally and generate a certain enthusiasm (and a certain enthusiasm). That is why, at your request, I continue to offer this option. Take good care of yourself and yours!

In order to enrich his emotional skills, it will be a question of making your emotion the ally of your professional efficiency and / or your personal harmony. Emotions punctuate your life, they intervene in a more or less conscious way and have a considerable influence on your well-being and your performance at work.

How to recognize them, decipher them and make them your allies? How to face the emotions of others, anticipate their reaction and keep a step back? How to better manage unforeseen situations and tensions?

These workshops allow you to learn to listen and tame emotions to improve your personal / professional relationships and strengthen your efficiency at work.

The objectives are clear, with always practical applications:
- Discover your own emotional process to understand the role and impact of emotions
- Analyze its operations and implement personal strategies to channel them
- Develop your emotional awareness to be in touch with your values
- Strengthen one's balance / harmony, self-confidence as well as the best discovery & mastery of one's own resources / skills / potential as well as new tools
- Overcome your fears and blockages to be able to move forward and serenely.
- Reduce psychological (stress, anxiety, concentration ...) & psycho-somatic manifestations
- Optimization of the emotional process & the concept of emotional intelligence
- Make your sensitivity & possible hypersensitivity a strength

Indeed, the sensitive & hypersensitive represent a small part of the population and are able to perceive what others do not feel, which is hidden but try to conform to what is expected of them and of them. '' be able to live in community. After a suitable accompaniment, a hypersensitive can learn to tame his innate capacities and to create harmony in his own existence.

What happens during a session ?

After having defined together one or more global objectives based on your initial problem, each session takes place in two stages.

1) Browse, analyze & dissect together the reflections, thoughts and notes taken during the week and related to your emotions: actions taken based on the suggestions of the previous week; thoughts; feelings: what worked or not / corresponded or not to your expectations. It is also an opportunity to get to know you better in order to better define / define / identify and then solve together the challenges / emotional blockages of the moment.

2) Based on the conclusions of the first part, a proposal of two to three sub-issues of the day to be dealt with during the session (sub-issues built from your initial issue): to answer them, for each of them 'between them, a series of ten to fifteen pragmatic reflections / actions will be proposed to you. Three possible answers:
- "I have already tried this solution but it does not suit me" or "I do not really believe it": we go to the next suggestion
- “Never tried” or “why not”, “I'll think about it”: we set ourselves the goal of trying as soon as the opportunity arises, by the next session

Concretely, a session = a reflection but above all A SESSION = SOLUTIONS / proposals / concrete suggestions to put into practice for the following session in order to overcome its blockages.

According to the defined objective, it is a question of identifying & resolving the impact of emotions and their bad channeling not only on his communication but especially on his daily life.

Note that during the videoconference session, all the notes are transcribed in the chat so that you can access them at any time when you wish.

You will find a benevolent setting where you can try, start again, make mistakes, without judgment and with pleasure.
No prerequisites for getting started. Your rhythm will be respected as well as the style and choice of repertoire you want to work on: pop, current music, musical or classical singing.

Come fearlessly with your questions and your desires!

Individual lessons for teenagers / adults

- Technical work: breath, voice development through exercises adapted to the level and profile of each
- Work on a piece from the repertoire: Putting technical work into practice on a piece chosen by the practitioner or by teaching for educational reasons. This moment also allows you to develop the learning of music theory if necessary.
Objective: to be able to sing a piece while being comfortable with the accompaniment so that interpretation and pleasure predominate.

Semi-private lessons

For all ages, levels or tessitura. Form your small group (mixed or not) to do a group singing workshop!

- Technical collective work. General approach to singing but also adapted to the needs of each one via bodywork and vocal warm-up.
- The course is adapted according to the needs and desires of the group. However, I suggest two ways of working:
o Soloist work: each participant brings a piece they wish to work on. Personalized working time that allows other participants to develop listening skills and learn by watching. We help each other, we advise each other with respect and kindness.
o Choral work: Singing in several voices is an important part of singing and helps to broaden the repertoire. Work a capella or with the accompaniment of a piece with several voices in order to develop listening to the other, create one and the same voice with several, open up and decomplex!

No need to know how to read music! As a choir director, I developed learning tools to allow non readers to work their scores on their own.

Are you curious about singing, but feel like you don’t know where to start? Do you already have some experience of singing and are curious about what your voice could achieve at its full potential? Do you feel shy about your voice and wish you could feel confident enough to sing in front of other people? I am Olivia, a professional opera singer who is passionate about teaching singers a healthy vocal technique in all styles of singing, and helping them to grow in confidence along the way. My teaching room is a safe space where students are free to experiment, make mistakes and discover everything about their voice with my full support!

I have been teaching singing privately to pupils of all ages and levels for several years, as well as enjoying a busy performance career. I find that being a regular performer myself is very important when imparting knowledge and advice to my students because I want to teach you more than just the mechanics of singing - I want to guide you towards being an artist and expressing YOUR unique voice and personality. I work on vocal technique, drama and language, and have worked with children, teenagers, and adults - both those hoping to sing professionally and enthusiastic amateurs! Every lesson will include warmups and technical exercises as well as work on repertoire that we will choose together. I can teach in English, French or Italian.

As for my performance experience: I began taking singing lessons at 13 years old after joining the school choir in secondary school in London, and adored the process of training my voice. In my teens, I performed in concerts as a soloist and also in a few musical theatre roles, most notably Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. I moved to Switzerland and trained as an opera singer at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Genève, and did a Specialised Masters (Soloist) at the Hochschule der Künste Bern.

I have since gone on to perform with the opera houses of Geneva, Lausanne and Lucerne, the Opera House of Zrenjanin in Serbia, the Jeunesses Musicales Opera Studio (Croatia), London Grimeborn Festival, and have been a featured soloist at such concert venues as the Berlin Philharmonic, Salle Paderewski in Lausanne, the BFM in Geneva, the Cologne Philharmonic, and St Johns Smith Square in London. Most recently you may have seen me as Mrs P. in the Swiss première of Michael Nyman's 'The Man who mistook his Wife for a Hat' in Vevey, or if you've been enjoying the program 'Blob Opera' this year, you might be interested to know that I was one of the opera singers working on this project by recording hours of material for a machine to create an algorithm that recreating an opera singer's voice!

Good singing is about solid and healthy vocal technique, a good feeling for music, self-expression and confidence! I would love to work with you to build all of these parts of yourself and to see where your voice takes you.

If you have any questions, please do get in touch with me!
