training for actor's
& musicians

The Clod Ensemble regularly offers classes to musicians, performers and arts students.

The Poetic Body

This course, for actors and performers, explores the basic principles of Jacques Lecoq’s idea of the poetic body – encouraging greater physical awareness and freedom of expression. The starting point is the neutral mask, helping the performer strip away old habits that are no longer of use and to enhance the performers presence on stage. By embodying movement dynamics in nature (elements, light, materials) participants will develop a rich vocabulary of movement which they can transpose to dramatic situations. Students will create their own short fragments of theatre over the duration of the course.
