The aim of our drama classes is to reveal the expressive potential of each individual, so that they can embody living, breathing characters. Each workshop is structured around three stages, with the aim of overcoming blockages and giving free rein to one's interpretation: body anchoring, which allows you to let go of all the clutter and let your imagination take over; exercises that engage both body and voice, and mobilise the inner self as well as the relationship with others and the world; and finally, the stage presentation. Over the course of the year, the students present 'improvised studies' inspired by their own imaginations, as well as by playwrights and the operatic repertoire. In the second term, they work on the text. Then, at the end of the course, clowning improvisations. This workshop is an invaluable tool for taming the stage, articulating emotions, thoughts and movements, and becoming aware of one's own uniqueness as a prerequisite for full performance capacity.

Through their interpretations and arrangements, jazz musicians have made famous the themes of the great composers active in America in the 20s, 30s and 40s. Over the years, these artists have also written pieces that have become part of the common repertoire of jazz musicians everywhere.

The repertoire course enables students to learn these 'standards' through writing, listening and speaking. The list of tunes includes 'must-haves' from the repertoire as well as more modern pieces.
