Visit us at : www.AlexanderTechworks.com "I really like to look into the physical acting characteristics of my character, because it helps me to transform. The Alexander Technique helps me to burrow into roles like gay cowboys and drug addicts by focusing on my posture, movement, and presence." - HEATH LEDGER "Jean-Louis Rodrigue always brings a personal and positive approach to his coaching work. His involvement is timeless and complete. He is generous, genuine, and creative such that even when a character or a story is frightening, it becomes about exploring the work and being of service. Jean-Louis has a dear view of the character the actor is playing and also an awareness of the purpose and structure of EFTA_R1_00493260 EFTA01997855 the whole movie, which engages the entire actor's intention and responsibility with the project. His work is a useful and exciting way to open my channels for my research as an actress. - JULIEITE BINOCHE "The Alexander technique is invaluable to actors of all ages. It helps us find new depth in exploring the physical and emotional life of a character. And it has helped me correct physical issues which affect my daily life. Jean-Louis and Kristof immediately create a level of trust and comfort in teaching this technique which allows all of us in the class to open up to the learning experience. I continue to work privately with them because I believe so strongly in their skill in teaching this technique, and its positive effect on my well-being." - JOBETH WILLIAMS "Jean-Louis Rodrigue is a popular movement coach in Los Angeles whose specialty is helping actors bring gracefulness and fluidity to their performances. A combination of acting coach , AlexanderTechnique teacher and movement specialist , Mr. Rodrigue uses techniques that have much in common with dance training. His teachings emphasize an awareness of the body and the physicality of performance. When performers make the physical component of their work as important as the intellectual, they become far more convincing and seamless." - VALERIE GLADSTONE, New York Times "The absolute best Alexander classes are given daily by my four-month old son. Kristof and Jean-Louis are a close second. They are not only expert in the theory and application of this incredible technique but pursue their work with a vibrant, contagious love. Their endeavor to help performers choose a new physical life that allows them to be more fully present—in essence, to use themselves differently--is profound, and has implications not only for life on the stage, but for life in general. Kristof and Jean-Louis create a beautiful work environment: safe, rigorous, personal--and sprinkled with a healthy dose of humor. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with them. And they don't spit up nearly as much as my son!" - PETER HER1VIANN " War Horse" Broadway "Jean-Louis is a gifted teacher. Some teachers are able to adjust, fix, or produce results in students immediately. However, often their work does not have a lasting value. Jean-Louis is not in that category. His understanding of the Alexander Technique and the psychology of the American actor is such that he is able to leave a lasting impression on most of the actors he encounters. It is a pleasure to be able to testify to his skill, ability, and artistry" - LOUIS SCHEEDER, Director of Classical Studio, NYU Drama, TischSchool of the Arts kristof konrad AlexanderTechworks EFTA_R1_00493261 EFTA01997856 forward email This email was sent to [email protected] by Update Profile/Email Address Instant removal with Safet,Insubscribq'm Privacy Policy.
