Creative Approach and Experiences Offered
In my workshops, participants are invited into a dynamic and inclusive space where expressive theatre techniques merge with personal storytelling. I guide them through exercises that explore physicality, voice, and improvisation, encouraging self-expression and creativity. Using modern theatre practices like role-play, movement, and ensemble work, participants engage with social issues, fostering empathy and critical thinking. Workshops are adapted to the needs of the group, I empower students to share their stories and discover their voices. What makes my workshops unique is the emphasis on personal growth and community connection, offering participants a safe environment to explore themselves while learning how theatre can serve as a tool for social change and personal empowerment.Video
