About
I have been teaching the fundamentals of an HB technique for six years at HB Studio: you develop the ability to respond truthfully, dynamically, and vividly with fellow actors and the ability to access sensory elements. You tap into the power of imagination and the reservoir of memory. You gain a working understanding of the terms: previous circumstances, destination, inner and outer objects, intentions, obstacles, and conflicts. You develop an awareness of the power, function, and dynamics of “place”, and learn to be in a state of discovery, which leads to actions. You develop tools of research and observation and you get comfortable improvising. You begin to measure yourself against professional standards and develop habits of discipline and a strong work ethic. Do understand that these practices take time to master. It takes about a year (20-30 weeks) at this level to really own the skills addressed. Further scene study or performance work will then take root in this fertile ground.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I usually give 30 min free trial class, so we get to know each other. Besides, it gives me the opportunity to find out in detail what their goals are so I can personalize the classes according to their needs.
