Screen Acting for Dancers -- When the Music Stops
I won my Oscar in a drama, not a musical. Dancers make extraordinary actors because we understand timing, physicality, and emotional expression through the body. I teach dancers how to carry those skills into dialogue scenes. Tip: Every pause in dialogue is a rest in music. Feel it that way.
Line Mastery Workshop -- 200 Reads and Freedom
My technique is brutally simple: read your script 200 times. Not 50. Not 100. Two hundred. By read 150, the words dissolve into your nervous system. By read 200, you're free to play. We work on a five-page scene in this session. You'll read it aloud until it transforms. Tip: Boredom is the gateway to mastery. Push through it.
Shakespeare Intensive -- King Lear and the Weight of Language
I've played Lear, Othello, Prospero, and Antony. Shakespeare terrifies actors because the language is dense. I teach you to find the human being inside the verse. We work on one soliloquy -- breath, thought, emotion, and the moment where the character breaks through the poetry. Tip: Shakespeare wrote for actors, not scholars. Speak it like a human being.
Representation in Film Workshop -- Fighting for the Role
I fought Hollywood's stereotypes for forty years. Sometimes I won. Sometimes I took the role anyway and subverted it from inside. This workshop is about navigating an industry that doesn't see you -- how to advocate for yourself, how to find humanity in limited scripts, and how to build a career when the system is designed to exclude you. Tip: Your anger is valid. Channel it into the work.
International Film Career Workshop -- Beyond Hollywood
When America wouldn't cast me fairly, our went to Europe and became a star in Berlin, London, and Paris. I teach you to think globally -- how to navigate international film industries, work in multiple languages, and build a career that doesn't depend on one country's approval. Marlene and I became friends because we both refused to be limited.
Graphic Design & Film Poster Workshop
I designed every poster, title card, and publication for my films. Typography is architecture. Layout is storytelling. We design a film poster from scratch -- concept, typography, illustration, and final composition. Bring a film idea or I'll give you one. Tip: A poster is a one-second film. It must convey mood, genre, and intrigue in a single glance.
Macedonian Sarissa (18-foot Pike Replica)
Full-length sarissa pike, 18 feet, cornel wood shaft with iron head and bronze butt-spike. Five ranks of sarissas project beyond the front line -- nothing wants to charge into that. Counterweight at the butt for one-handed use when the crush begins.
Field Fortification Workshop -- Build a Roman Camp
Hands-on workshop building a Roman marching camp. Ditch, rampart, palisade, gates, interior layout. At Alesia I built two walls -- one facing in to trap Vercingetorix, one facing out to stop his relief army. Tip: If you can build, you can hold. If you can hold, you can win.
Desert Guerrilla Tactics Workshop
How 38 warriors evaded 8,000 soldiers for years. Water caching, trail deception, ambush sites, disappearing into terrain. The Apache did not fight battles -- we fought a war of movement. Tip: Never be where they expect you. Move at night, rest by day, leave false trails. Make them chase ghosts.
Desert Survival Intensive -- 48 Hours With Nothing
Two days in the desert with a knife and the clothes on your back. Finding water from plants, catching small game, building shade shelters, navigating by stars and landmarks. The Chiricahua Apache lived in this desert for centuries. If you listen to the land, it will keep you alive.
Woodland Warfare & Ambush Tactics
Fighting in the eastern forests. Ambush placement, tree-line defense, river crossing interdiction. The Shawnee were masters of woodland warfare -- we knew every trail, every crossing, every blind turn. Tip: In the forest, the defender is invisible and the attacker is blind. Make the forest your ally.
Revolutionary Leadership Intensive -- From Defeat to Victory
How to lead a revolution when the revolution keeps failing. Rebuilding after defeat, maintaining support during exile, coming back stronger. I lost everything multiple times and rebuilt each time. Tip: Your cause must be bigger than your ego. The revolution is not about you. The moment it becomes about you, you have already lost.
