Viewpoints

Location: Los Angeles
Viewpoints is a dynamic, movement-based actor training method. Originally created by a choreographer, Viewpoints teaches you how to make strong, unusual physical choices, connect the voice to the body, and to operate as part of a fluid ensemble. This training is a wonderful compliment to any actor's toolbox, because it begins with the external and then travels to the internal, in contrast with many Method-based techniques. (including Meisner!) It's provocative and fun. No previous Meisner or Viewpoints training necessary.
