This is the first time Lisa has taught a Masterclass of the Physical and Behavioral work that has earned many awards and nominations for her actors in stunning transformative roles. Actors must have completed Lisa's EMOTION and ADVANCED EMOTION series of Masterclasses to undertake this work.
The current demand of great acting (as evidenced by the recent award-winning and nominated roles Lisa has coached) is transformative performance. Lisa takes all her most exciting and detailed PHYSICAL LIFE work she has developed over her 20+ years and places all in this exciting new Masterclass.
With actors having previously taken masterclasses with Lisa in EMOTION and ADVANCED EMOTION, this Fall 2025 masterclass will enjoy an across the board standard and technical sophistication. This work is now so rarely taught in acting class and masterclass format: every actor in Lisa's global masterclass will be on their feet and dynamically engaged in creating specific and psychologically layered and "alive" life and behavior.
As was said to Lisa by her acting mentor (and his before that):
"An ounce of behavior is worth a pound of words"
All Lisa's work springs from her signature "Dream Of Life" core work, but the PHYSICAL LIFE masterclass is a new level of professional training and demand for the actor.
In current storytelling, EMOTIONALLY CONNECTED PHYSICALITY IS ALL.
From stillness to the most subtle of psychological gesture, to the most heightened physical demands of today's roles, the actor will leave this masterclass with a breakthrough physical freedom and an understanding of their creative body that will last them career-long.
