And get me on your team.
My signature, build-on-each-other, coaching programme, Empower > Embody > Connect, is, without doubt, the best way to explore accents with me (unless you’re in a hurry to prep for a role or casting).
Bespoke, highly personalised, one-to-one teaching, coaching and support to take you from not knowing where to start with accents to feeling confident, knowledgable and skilled enough to tackle them on your own.
Each stage is available in both fortnightly and weekly(ish) formats and you’ll have me in your pocket (via whatsapp and email support) throughout our time together.
EMPOWER
To do accents well it really helps to understand how they work. The first step on our journey will be about empowering you with that knowledge.
Whether your immediate goal is to master a specific accent from scratch, tidy up that one that you’re soooo close to getting down, or to simply feel more comfortable with accents in general, Empower will live up to its name by helping you:
gain a clearer understanding of the components that make up an accent
identify and get acquainted with the best tools and practices for you
learn how to break down and analyse an accent
identify the key features of an accent of your choosing
unpick the features of your own accent so you can more easily compare it to the one you are trying to learn
Empower is all about getting your mind on side. It gets you out of your own way, freeing you up to move on to Embody and Connect with confidence and ease…

EMBODY
In Embody we’ll cover the same juicy ground as in Empower* before diving into getting your new accent feeling, (yes, you guessed it), embodied…
Great accent work is so much more than understanding the patterns and doing the ‘right’ sounds and, yet, it is so easy to get lost in that stuff.
The new sounds, shapes and tunes must be grappled with practically, physically.
We’ll work together to get them into your muscle memory and familiar and comfortable enough to use to express yourself.
Embody: the antidote to being in your head!

CONNECT
Being able to do an accent is one thing, acting in it is something different entirely.
In Connect we’ll dig into Empower and Embody* before taking things to my favourite stage:
working together to find the best way to integrate all this accent stuff with your acting stuff.
I’ve yet to meet two actors with the exact same approach to acting. The steps you take to integrate your accent work are likely to be just as personal and unique.
We’ll work together to:
ensure you have tools and processes up your sleeve that make sense for you as an actor
get you feeling as connected acting in your new accent as you do in your own.
