Good acting is the one that is made with the hard, soul and spirit of the artist. It is the one than when you see it, you can not apart your eyes from it. The good acting is so intense that it does not past through your mind, it goes directly to your hard. You will feel a shiver if your a watching good acting. It is also the one that makes you think after the show. Thus when you go out of the theater you do not talk about the show, you talk about about your life. It is the one that make you experience the beauty of wonder.

This is my last year of my undergraduate program in Teaching visual art and physical theater. As an actor we have being doing  an intensive training working not only the emotional life, but also our physicality. One hour and half of dance ( valley and modern dance), 2 hour of training and 2 hour of workshop 4 days a week. I acted in the production of A Midsummer Night's Dream




But without the one that really change my whole perspective of what i was thinking was acting was The fool

In this last play I had search really deep into my and go put my body into the extreme. Working in the precises movement, in the present of the actor and connecting the body with the emotion. Body and emotion were just one entity. It was very very hard an exhausting. But It was at the same incredible and reassuring. 

I would love to train my emotions, learn how to control them. I also i am interesting in working monologues. On the other hand I want to improve as a teacher and as a person.


I would love to receive from you tons of ideas to improve my tools and discover new ones. And if is possible i would really appreciate if you as a professor could explain my all the work that is behind the classes that we are having. I know that you have planned the classes very carefully and that most of the exercise have a why.


I am excited about this course and very very happy with the class, I have a strong felling that we all are going to learn from each other.

Looking forward for acting I

  1. The photo of your production of The Fool is very powerful. It is a lovely image in its simplicity. It is very clear from your work in class that the physical training you've already received has helped you develop a sense of action and a keen awareness of how the body can be manipulated in performance.

    We'll be working on connecting physicality with text and using tactic and objective based acting. This approach should complement your previous training.
