This Acting Workshop Gives You Somewhere to Experiment
You can step into a character and try a different pattern or way of communicating that might not come naturally at first.
When acting in a scene you can play out a situation from another point of view. You can explore what happens when you communicate with a different tactic, take a risk, let someone in, stand your ground or change your approach, while still responding authentically to what's happening.
Step Into A Character To Explore New Ways Of Being

Fill the Space.

Tell The Story.
- Filling the space is about how you take up space and use your body to match your intended message. Gravitas, charisma, or lack of confidence, tells a story even before you say a word.
- Physical energy and self awareness can influence the way you are received.
- To be connected to your body is to recognise what it's telling you, and trust yourself enough to respond.
- It is also about finding ways to express various choices authentically, rather than performing a persona.

- This workshop will help you connect your voice to your body, inhabit your words, and mean what you say.

You Can Book A Course At Leadership League In Under 60 Seconds!
Maybe you think it'll take ages just to check out and you don't have time to fill out the enrolment forms right now.
We get it. Parents are busy. You don’t need that kind of hassle during your precious lunchtime.
Unlike other providers who bury you in pages of paperwork at checkout (especially painful if you’re enrolling siblings), we’ve separated payment from enrolment.
That means you grab your place fast, relax knowing school holidays are covered, and come back later to give us the enrolment details in a one page form, anytime up until just before the course.
For siblings, we also offer a pre-fill of the same parent, emergency, and consent info (which you can amend if needed), and you’re done! No need to start from scratch.
We’ve built this process for busy parents who want peace of mind without the admin headache.
Spots are limited. Secure yours today, and sort the details later.
