Acting and The Physical Life…
“Out of your head and into your body”. When I heard American Acting Coach, Larry Moss emphatically state these words, during the recent Vancouver Acting School workshop, I felt a knowing thrill dash through my body.

Acting Coach Larry Moss Does Not Need a Buffoonery Workshop..
Okay… it’s a long title but it needs to be said. I have just spent three amazing days auditing, witnessing, observing, absorbing, laughing, crying, taking notes, processing, confirming, squirming, cheer-leading, supporting, holding my breath, thinking and agreeing at the Larry Moss Workshop by Vancouver Acting School.

Opening To The Alexander Technique…
A few weeks ago I decided it was time for me to try out the Alexander Technique, a unique body awareness practice that I had heard about for years. People I knew had followed it with positive effects. Still, I really had no idea what it was, or how you “did it”, until now. (And,…

Dear Lynn, Monday morning, May 3rd, I received a text message from a friend that said, “I thought of you this morning when I heard on the news about Lynn Redgrave.” News? What news? My heart instantly sank and I jumped on the Internet to confirm my worst fear. “Lynn Redgrave died peacefully in her…
