Course Overview

Our body is an amazingly powerful instrument. Think of who inspired you as an actor and how they use their bodies to express their art on stage or on camera.This course aims to enhance your personal potential to express yourself as a performer. How do you wake up the body to its full potential? How do you approach character work to achieve an inspiring embodied transformation? This course is an exploration of emotional involuntary movements, and spontaneous and expressive material, to become one with your body again. 

The HubStudio is thrilled to have international coach, Roel Voorbij at the studio. This series is a truly unique physical movement and awareness course that teaches actors how to reconnect to their freedom of expression, sense of self and impulsivness, in a highly interactive and insightful way. This course is essential for those working professionals looking to find a new way to access their craft, learn a new technique and unlock their potential.

This work aims at the ongoing physical connection you need as an actor. So if you are an actor that looks for a stronger physical expression on stage, non-verbal as well as the expression of text and words from a physical starting point, come and find out what you’re capable of…..



Course Outline

Over a set of 6 weeks we are connecting from head to toe, growing our physical awareness and translating the work into a practical approach to take home, by answering the following questions:

  • How do I prepare and warm up effectively?
  • How do I relate to my body?
  • How do I open up and built trust?
  • How do I embody a character from a script?


Course Outcomes

  • Achieve a heightened awareness and understanding of your body and the movements it produces (both intentional and unintentional).
  • Express yourself more freely and authentically.
  • Achieve a transformed physical energy by connecting with sensory experiences.
  • Put these techniques into practice and physically build and embody a character from a script.
