Unlocking Emotions: Alba Technique

Directors expect authenticity. Casting directors can spot when you’re “forcing it,” and audiences only connect when the emotion is real. Why risk being caught faking it?

This one-day, hands-on workshop trains you in the Alba Method, a scientifically grounded technique that gives actors the tools to safely and reliably access six core emotions at any intensity—on command. No waiting for inspiration. No hoping memory recall works this time. Just consistent, truthful emotional access you can depend on in rehearsal, performance, or on set.

If you’ve ever wished you could turn emotions on like a switch, this class is your opportunity.
