Life Performance PracticesA Life Performance Practice Lab is an edu-taining, interactive series of labs where you will discover how to utilize capable parts of yourself you never knew existed.
LPTLabs use the model of acting classes to teach new and exciting ways of presenting yourself that will enrich your relationships and improve your productivity.
The Labs provide a safe place to explore everyday situations with diverse types of people. As an ensemble we discover and experience better ways of interacting with each other.
The Lab series is designed so that each lab gives you the performance tools you need to ultimately utilize your entire human instrument. You will learn the comic and tragic character traits (emotional habits) and performance routines (habitual actions) that are natural to each Performance Style.
By learning the LPPractices in a practice setting, we learn more about who we are and how we operate in life. We can try things out, see what works and make changes in our daily performance to produce the best results.
It is advisable to take all seven Labs so that you have a complete understanding of your human instrument and how to access all of your talents. You also learn to work and be with people whose Performance Styles differ from your own.
LP Director’s teachings on Life Performance, interactive discussion, training in the LPPractices, and solo and ensemble scenario work (learning to make creative choices by acting out life scenes familiar to us all.)
We learn that the Empty Stage Awareness is our true nature and that when we identify with awareness as the real me, we can access new creative skills and accomplish much more.
We learn that we all have 5 Performance Styles (PS) which display our particular way of acting and being in the world. Though everyone possesses all five, we possess them to different degrees and act them out differently.
We learn to recognize our own comic and tragic character traits (habitual emotions) and performance routines (habitual actions) and discover ways to enrich them or change them.
Your Objective is to become a Quick Change Artist. Gaining fluidity in action, you will be able to move freely in and out of emotional character to support various situations.
