The Academy, led by a team of international master teachers, invites students to embark on a pedagogical journey that will fundamentally impact the course of their artistic lives. While rooted in the work of Jacques Lecoq, the program incorporates other physical disciplines and artistic approaches to encourage a broad exploration, with the body, gesture, and play placed at the center of the creative process. Through exploration, experimentation, rigorous training and creative problem solving, the program at the Academy gives students invaluable creative tools to add to their tool box and use in the pursuit of their artistic goals.

While the pedagogy is rooted in the performing arts, The Academy embraces artists from every field and cultural background. Students embark together on a search for new ways to create original and visionary works of art possible only through this synergy.

Students at The Academy, work in collaboration with each other and their instructors to create public performances including shows, installations, processions and events. These productions offer students the opportunity to experience first-hand all aspects of the creation of a live performance, from conception to execution.
