Natural Screen Acting Workshop -- No Makeup, No Tricks

I refused the Hollywood makeover. My eyebrows stayed thick, my name stayed Swedish, and the camera loved me anyway. I teach you to show up as yourself and let that be enough. We work on emotional transparency, natural movement, and the courage to be imperfect on camera. Tip: Beauty fades. Honesty doesn't.

Multilingual Acting Workshop -- Performing in Other Languages

I performed in Swedish, English, Italian, German, and French -- each language changes how you think, gesture, and breathe. We pick two languages and do the same scene in both. You'll discover that your character shifts when the language shifts. That's not a problem -- that's a gift.

Classic Hollywood Makeup Kit (1940s Natural Look)

The 1940s 'no makeup' look actually required extraordinary skill. Soft foundation, natural brow, minimal eye, rosy lip. This kit replicates the golden-age Hollywood look that Selznick's makeup artists created for me. Includes application guide.

Emotional Scene Work -- Crying, Laughing, Raging on Cue

In Casablanca, the tears were real -- I didn't know how the story ended. That uncertainty became the performance. I teach you to access genuine emotion without tricks, onions, or menthol. We work on sense memory, breath, and emotional preparation. Tip: Don't try to cry. Try to NOT cry. The struggle is what the camera captures.

Screen Coolness Workshop -- Less Is More, Period

I cut half my lines from every script. The directors hated it. The audience loved it. I teach you the Meisner principle applied to film: react truthfully, say only what's essential, and let your face do the work. Tip: If you can say it with a look, don't say it with words.

Stunt Driving Workshop -- Speed, Control, Camera Angles

Bullitt's twelve-minute car chase changed action cinema. I'll teach you pursuit driving: heel-toe downshifting, controlled drifts, and how to hit your mark at speed while a camera car is six feet off your bumper. We use a closed course and start slow. Tip: Smooth is fast. Jerky is dangerous.

Triumph Bonneville T120 (1968 Restoration)

The same model I jumped the wire fence on in The Great Escape (though I jumped it on a modified TR6 Trophy). This '68 Bonnie is fully restored -- 650cc parallel twin, beautiful chrome. Rental includes helmet, jacket, and a prayer that you bring it back in one piece.

Motorcycle Maintenance Workshop -- Wrench Your Own Bike

I rebuilt engines in my garage between films. A rider who can't fix their own bike is a passenger, not a rider. We cover oil changes, chain adjustment, brake bleeding, and carburetor tuning on a vintage British twin. Bring old clothes.

Leather Racing Jacket (Heuer-Patched, Le Mans Replica)

Gulf-blue leather racing jacket with Heuer patch, exactly as I wore in Le Mans. This is the jacket that launched a thousand fashion imitations. It's insured, so please don't crash in it. Borrow for photo shoots, car shows, or just feeling invincible.

Tap Dance Fundamentals -- Athletic Style

I don't teach pretty tap. I teach POWERFUL tap. We start with shuffles, flaps, and time steps, then build to combinations that use your whole body. I combined tap with ballet and jazz because dance shouldn't live in boxes. Tip: Your tap shoes are percussion instruments. You're not dancing -- you're drumming with your feet.

Dance for Camera Workshop -- Choreographing for the Lens

Stage dance faces one direction. Camera dance exists in 360 degrees. I teach you to choreograph for angles, cuts, and tracking shots. We study the puddle-splashing in Singin' in the Rain and the ballet in An American in Paris. Tip: The camera is your dance partner. Don't ignore it.

Lakota War Lance & Coup Stick

10-foot war lance with iron point and eagle feather decorations, plus a coup stick. Counting coup -- touching an enemy in battle without killing him -- was the highest act of bravery. Killing was easy. Touching was courage. I counted coup many times before I started fighting for survival.
