Welcome to Drama Yoga
The world's first holistic acting school
The world's first holistic acting school
Whether you're new to acting, an experienced performer, or you're looking to build your confidence. Whether you're interested spirituality or learning more about yourself and the world around you, Drama Yoga offers a refreshing, soul-nourishing alternative to the pressures of the commercial world.
|
Whilst we see the value in working towards commercial success, we equally recognise that the acting industry is wildly competitive-with 100s of actors vying for a single role. This leaves creativity, well-being and self-worth tied to luck, in an industry where focus can often lean towards surface-level projects, with 98% of actors regularly unemployed and unfulfilled, and the chances of landing a role averaging around 0.5%. |
"life beats down and crushes the soul and art reminds us that we have one." - Stella Adler
|
"Love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art" - Stanislavski
|
At Drama Yoga, we offer something different:
Drama-yoga is a conscious acting community for novice to professional actors, and creatives, who want to nurture their craft, while focusing on self-development and well-being; combining holistic practices like yoga, meditation, and mindfulness within actor training. |
|
Drama-yoga is a space where your self-worth is built through your connection within a community of like-minded individuals, who value artistic and self-development with a conscious focus. Fulfilment for the actor is found in seeing the inherent value contained within creating stories, plays and productions which explore universal human truths, which transcend cultures and time. |
"Being an actor is a religious calling because you’ve been given the ability, the gift to inspire humanity" - Sanford Meisner

WHAT WE OFFER
"Work for the actor lies essentially in two areas: the ability to consistently create reality and the ability to express that reality" - Lee Strasberg
|
• Acting Workshops: Dive into techniques inspired by Stella Adler, Lee Strasberg, Sanford Meisner, and more—guided by experienced tutors with decades of acting experience. • Mind-Body Integration: Explore yoga, mindfulness, and meditation to support your emotional and mental well-being. • Interspiritual Exploration: We explore a variety of dramatic texts—from Vedic stories such as Ramayana, Mahabharata, Greek classics, Shakespeare to modern texts, uncovering universal truths about the human experience. • Graded LAMDA syllabus: Kids and Teenagers have the option of an officially graded acting development, with bonuses such as university entry points. |
|
Our sister-school, The Actor's Cafe and Drama-Yoga are Spotlight accredited acting schools recognised by the industry.
