Find yourself sabotaging auditions with nervousness or freezing up when you walk in the casting room? Are you frustrated because you can totally kill it in when you rehearse in the car on the way there, but for some reason choke right after you slate your name? There's nothing wrong with you! It's not a sign "from the universe" that you shouldn't be an actor. It's actually the opposite.
Join Holly Shaw, hypnotherapist, bestselling author of The Creative Formula and former actor, to find out how your audition jitters or nervousness can be transformed into your best friend — helping you create magnetic and powerful energy in auditions and on film so you'll have that magnetic "it" quality that keeps casting directors calling you back!
In this two-hour free workshop, Shaw shares her secrets from over twenty years of studying performance anxiety and from learning to manage it herself while performing in TV, film, and on stages all over the world. You'll learn:
- The truth about performance anxiety and what is really going on when your nerves and body act up
- How to channel the "optimum" mindset before stepping into an audition
- Powerful tools for transforming audition jitters into magnetism
- The Biggest Mistake you can make with auditions and how to avoid it
This workshop will equip you with tools to manage your nervousness so that when big opportunities arise you'll know you've done everything you can to be your magnetic best.
