Youth Training Center Workshops
We, Vasiliki and Sandra, go to the Youth Center every Thursday from 13:30-15:30 to deliver drama workshops. These workshops end in June 2018.
The structure of these workshop could loosely be defined in three parts: The first art are warm up exercises for the mind and the voice and the waking up of the body in general.
The second part of the workshop is to introduce the learners to the meaning of theatre, to theatrical education through theatrical techniques.
The third part introduces them to improvisation through theatrical techniques and they can also experience other aspects on stage or off stage too such as lighting or sound.
The Aims of these workshops is to make them aware of their bodies. To allow them to trust each other and have a sense of belonging in the team. To help them engage with themselves through personal and teamwork.
