International Courses for Actors
Open up new paths for theatrical expression and creation
Find a wide range of courses that provide impulses for your individual artistic development. Our courses combine the most diverse practical needs with artistic and philosophical questions. With which method, you will ask? With yours! The method is that you find your own unique perspective on theatre and your voice to express it. For this process you need professional guidance – and here we are – your teachers who do not intend to teach you, but to guide you and provoke you to unfold your own knowledge.
Meet Jurij Alschitz and his team of teachers
Dr Jurij Alschitz has built up an international team of teachers over many years, who today pass on his comprehensive training with hundreds of exercises in many voices and are pedagogically and artistically active worldwide on the basis of his methodological principles.
In their daily practice, Dr. Olga Lapina (Lithuania, DK), Riccardo Palmieri (Italy), Christine Schmalor (Germany) and Dimitris Tsiamis (Greece) pursue different unique research themes of their own, united by one credo:
Our teaching is aimed at your artistic personality. Knowledge is born within yourself.
All topics and course offerings seek an experimental and innovative approach to creative acting practice. They reflect the latest findings and research of Jurij Alschitz and each member of the team. Each course is a unique creation that will never be repeated in the same way, but will continuously evolve; because each course is an artistic encounter with the participants as co-creators of new ideas. Together we will ask ourselves the question: What can make me happy as an actor, and even more – as an artist?
Upcoming Courses
