About Me

Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, I have been an actor since I was seven years old, and a martial artist since I was nine. I have always had a passion for the arts especially in how they intersect with movement. It was for this reason that I moved to Belgium to study gestural theatre. Beyond this I have studied mythology and literature on the side. I love fantasy, video games, and cooking. I also speak French.

Education

High School Diploma. I studied for one year at Chicago College of Performing Arts at Roosevelt University in Chicago with a focus on Acting. Currently studying at Ecole LASSAAD

Experience / Qualifications

Been an actor with professional and semi-professional experience familiar with the techniques of Lecoq, Checkhov, Bogart, Overlie, Laban, Linklater, and more.

I started out in Musical Theatre, playing roles such as JD in Heathers and The King in Once Upon a Mattress, in my late teens I got into other styles, playing roles such as Beethoven in Dog Sees God, Dogberry in Much Ado About Nothing, and Orlando in As You Like It.


I have done commercial work and work as a sword fighter to perform in front of the Cincinnati Pops Orchestra


Worked as a teachers assistant at a program in Cincinnati which focuses on training high school aged students in the world of theatre.

I’ve studied Martial Arts since I was nine, including but not limited to Tae Kwon Do, Aikido, Aiki-Jutsu, Iaido, Wrestling, and Systema.

Specialized in mythology in my high school.
Using a range of disciplines from martial arts, to acting techniques, to voice and breath work, we will work together to relieve unnecessary tensions in the body, move effectively, and discover deeper understanding of our vessel. My hope is that you will feel more capable and confidant in your body, no matter what type of body you have. This is not about strength training. It is abut understanding and appreciating the body you have.

Laryssa
Vocal technique course / vocal coaching / technical singing
The course is intended for anyone seriously interested in the functioning of the voice and its application in singing (support, power, vocal stability, timbre, etc.). Inspired by the EVT (Estill Voice Training) method, a system that explains how the voice works and uses it to rehabilitate vocal disorders, strengthen public speakers and support high-level performers, my goal is to make the student more aware of their vocal instrument and more comfortable in their sound emission and singing. We will begin by exploring the source of sound: our body. We will cover breathing and warm-up exercises, and focus on various sound emission techniques to improve voice quality and control.

Dida

Alexandre
Singing and performance classes, music and theater
Graduated in composition and Orchestration and in the art of theater and directing, having a Master in Musical Theater at the Sorbonne University Paris and a doctorate of advanced research in the art of singing and musical interpretation , I propose singing and interpretation lessons, based on the understanding and implementation of the Belt technique (breathing, voice placement, flexibility of diaphragmal pressure, diction) and a practical application of the theatrical method from Stanislavski for a thorough understanding and discovery of the theatrical interpretation of songs. The course consists of two or three parts: 1. A warm-up with various exercises, with the aim of widening the range, developing the breathing and understanding the mechanism of the phonator device. 2. Practical work on a song with eclectic choice. 3. A part of learning music theory and reading of score, if necessary. I work with you, putting a lot of emphasis on discovering or developing your voice at your own pace. I can also propose: 2. Music interpretation course (we work on the game and the construction of a character, the emotion of the song, the nuances) 3. Theater course (Actor's Studio method) - (we work on the body expression, the scenic presence, the connection between thought and action on stage), 4. Course of musical theory and solfege (the bases of the musical theory to be able to read and follow a partition), 5. Preparation course for castings and auditions (work on psychological preparation, stress management, choice of pieces and cutting, etc.). The price quoted is per course
