Meisner body
In this weekend intensive, MEISNER BODY becomes a concentrated and profound experience. Two days to fully immerse yourself in a training that unites body, emotion, and technique, inviting you to inhabit the scene with the purest authenticity. Here, the Meisner technique expands, intersects with physical work, and becomes a total experience: visceral, poetic, present.
The focus of the intensive will be on the Repetition Exercise, the heart of the Meisner Technique, a tool that trains us to truly listen, respond from impulse, and act from the present. This exercise will be the starting point for a work that combines the emotional with the physical, the technical with the intuitive.
Throughout the weekend, this training will be enriched with dynamics corporal, spatial and group, which will allow us to explore the precepts of repetition from different angles. We will work on it as what it is: the springboard from which authenticity, true connection, and the ability to respond with true impulse on stage emerge.
During the intensive, we will work on:
Presence in space and with the other.
Active listening, beyond the text.
Authenticity as a creative principle.
The impulse as a scenic trigger.
The connection with your partner and with yourself.
The reactive state as a playing field.
The body as a channel of truth.
These will be two days of total immersion, designed to leave you with concrete tools, a transformative experience, and real-life training that will leave a lasting impression. A space where you'll not only learn technique, but also train to act with greater presence, truth, and freedom.

Argentine actor, director and teacher, Sebastian Rad He is passionate about acting that fuses different techniques and disciplines. He is certified as a teacher of the Meisner technique by the Meisner Institute in Los Angeles, and his unique approach arises from the integration of that technique and his
Extensive experience in physical theater and Lecoq pedagogy. He has trained actors in Argentina, Chile, Spain, England, Germany, India, and other countries, and currently collaborates with the company
international Sariego Theatre, with which he tours the world giving workshops and presenting his works.
Throughout his career, Sebastián has created and directed numerous plays, thoroughly researching the tools that help actors reach their full potential. His integrative and experimental approach has been key to developing a unique workshop like MEISNER BODY, designed to offer a training experience that transcends theory and reaches the body and Being of the actor/actress.
Carlos Cegarra He is a performing artist deeply committed to theater as a space for embodied creation, transformation, and connection. His work draws on a vision of art as a form of listening, play, and a space for the personal and the collective to meet.
As an actor, creator, stage director, and facilitator of creative processes, he has collaborated with communities and institutions in diverse contexts, always guided by a sensitive approach to the body as a source of knowledge and expression. His training in Lecoq pedagogy, as well as his experience in the Integral Embodiment and Performance Practice approach (Thomas Prattki Centre), support a practice that interweaves physical theater, mask, movement, and myth as avenues for creation and learning.
Her current research focuses on holistic body processes that cultivate creative autonomy and generate performance practices that intertwine the intimate, the relational, and the symbolic.
