The technique has been described as a psycho-physical re-education system\, or simply a body mind system that looks to clarify a certain relationship between the head\, the neck\, and the body. When the neck is free\, the head will tend to go “forward and up” and when the head goes forward and up the body will tend to “lengthen and widen”. But how exactly do we do that? It turns out we need a process—one that feels safe\, simple\, and fun enough so that it doesn’t become yet another thing on our to-do list. A process through which we can play\, be curious\, and kind to ourselves. \nOver four sessions\, Fabio will guide participants through exercises that help us clarify this process for ourselves. In the latter part of each session\, participants are invited to bring in sides or text to work from\, exploring one-on-one adjustments in the work. Sessions run Fridays from 10am-1pm.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nAbout Fabio Tavares\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””] \n\nFabio Tavares is a Brazilian artist who’s been obsessed with the human body in action from a very young age.

When the neck is free\, the head will tend to go “forward and up” and when the head goes forward and up the body will tend to “lengthen and widen”. But how exactly do we do that? It turns out we need a process—one that feels safe\, simple\, and fun enough so that it doesn’t become yet another thing on our to-do list. A process through which we can play\, be curious\, and kind to ourselves. \nOver four sessions\, Fabio will guide participants through exercises that help us clarify this process for ourselves. In the latter part of each session\, participants are invited to bring in sides or text to work from\, exploring one-on-one adjustments in the work. Sessions run Fridays from 10am-1pm.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nAbout Fabio Tavares\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””] \n\nFabio Tavares is a Brazilian artist who’s been obsessed with the human body in action from a very young age.

An essential ingredient for this connection is opening to being influenced by imagery. \nOur ability to respond to images runs through our nervous system. We are training to develop our creative artistry as storytellers\, and to freely bring our unique personal perspective through our voices and bodies into our work.

For we are getting nearer and nearer to the subconscious and the more subtle our work\, the better conditioned our physical instrument must be to express it. The work you are doing is difficult\, impossible\, essential.”\n— Konstantin Stanislavski\n\n\nActor\, teacher\, and company member\, Ken Barnett\, will return to The Actors Center for a 3-day workshop sharing the tools of Dreamwork\, while focusing on using unconscious material to develop a character. Each participant is asked to choose a role to prepare and also bring in a dream to explore. The process of using Dreamwork to create a role is a beautiful\, mysterious\, and profoundly inspiring methodology. By engaging with fresh material from the unconscious as delivered by a dream\, we find the fertile intersection between our own selves and the character. We then discover what is deeply personal about the script and how urgent it is for us to inhabit this story and character. As is true with each dream\, each role becomes a new opportunity to learn\, grow\, and move towards wholeness: a call from one’s destiny. \nKen has offered Dreamwork to the company before\, but this is the first time we will focus on character work. Working physically\, Ken will guide participants in asking the thinking mind to soften in order to invite the truth held in the body to express freely. Discover what is within you that is longing to be revealed through the fiction of the character\, and unveil the connections to your personal truth that are held in the script. We will work with gesture in the body\, freedom in the voice\, and an expansive approach to engaging the imagination. Prior experience with Dreamwork is welcomed but not required. \n\n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nAbout Ken Barnett\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””] \n\nKen is an actor\, director\, acting coach\, and teacher of Dreamwork for Artists.
