Step up and Stand Out Beginner's Acting Workshop
About Step up and Stand Out Beginner's Acting Workshop
🌟 Confident Speaking & Presence Workshop. Stand up and Step Out!
Method of Instruction:
This two-day course combines beginner-friendly techniques from Toastmasters, social etiquette training, and foundational acting skills to help students build confidence and poise.
On Day 1, students will be gently coached through fun, low-pressure exercises. Each student will introduce themselves and participate in guided activities. They’ll receive private adjustments from the instructor to help them improve and perform a final mini-presentation before the end of Day 1.
On Day 2, students will present a full speech or talk that incorporates everything they’ve learned. We’ll wrap with a reflection and a short survey to help students decide their next steps.
