About us
Let’s meet online and in person to play and develop some new (or old) acting skills.
Our acting sessions are for you if:
- You ever thought about taking up acting as a hobby.
- You did drama in college, uni, school and you miss it.
- You ever needed to speak in front of people and wished you had some more tools (and some more confidence).
- You like to play and be creative (and sometimes silly).
- You want to meet new people.
- You are an adult (but really a child).
We will play, learn skills, create and perform.
We will become more free & confident in front of people.
We will make new friends and get to know ourselves in a new way.
All of the sessions are suitable for beginners with little or no experience.
More experienced performers are very welcome to join and play with us too :)
Most sessions are run by Theatre Gym and Tal Jakubwiczova

We will have a short Q&A session at the end of the class so bring any questions you might have about voice acting.The workshop is led by voice actor Jen Bradley

Speak from your Heart
The Study Society, Colet House, W14 9DA, 151 Talgarth Road, London, GBA workshop to help you dissolve the fear of public speaking and find your authentic voice
Most of us don’t fear public speaking itself.
What we really fear is being seen all by ourselvesIf you freeze, shrink or collapse the moment all eyes turn towards you — or if public speaking brings dread, shame or panic into your system — you are not alone.

🌬️ THE ART OF MELTING
In Speak from your Heart we create a gentle, playful and pressure-free laboratory. An easy going space where you don't have to push, over-perform or generate fake confidence.The aim is simple - to melt the freeze inside your system so that your natural voice — warm, honest, playful, expressive — can rise to the surface in it's unique and natural way.
