SUMMARY:ACTOR'S ACCENT TOOLKIT
DESCRIPTION:ACTOR’S ACCENT TOOLKIT:\nAn Introduction to Knight-Thompson Speechwork for Performers \nWhen:\nSaturday\, May 8\, 12pm – 4pm\, PDT\nSunday\, May 9\, 12pm – 4pm\, PDT \nWhere:\nOnline via Zoom \nTaught by:\nTyler Seiple\nwww.accentcoachla.com \nPrice: $225\n($150 for members of Stuart Rogers’ Studios) \nMaster Teacher Tyler Seiple leads an introduction to Knight-Thompson Speechwork for performers and public speakers. This eight-hour workshop focuses on understanding what accents are and the skills needed to develop them. With a tailored blend of discussion\, exercises\, and context-building\, students walk away with an understanding of the muscles that shape speech\, the patterns that make up accents\, and the tools they need to adopt any accent. It also introduces a more helpful\, KTS-based approach to the idea of “Accent Reduction\,” getting to the same result without shame or guilt. \nSpace is limited. Register now by emailing accentcoachla@gmail.com\, or by visiting here for more information. \nAfter the Actor’s Accent Toolkit\, students are invited to take shorter classes with Tyler in a wide and expanding variety of accents. Using the foundation of the Toolkit\, students are able to integrate target accents in less time and with a clear process. Upcoming accent classes can be found here.

SUMMARY:EXPERIENCING SPEECH #29 Online from Australia
DESCRIPTION:A Six-Day Online Workshop in:\nthe sounds of the world’s languages \nthe physicality of speech actions \nintroducing descriptive phonetics \nthe skills of adjusting linguistic detail in speech \nWith Teachers Simon Masterton & Linda Nicholls-Gidley \nJanuary 4-10\, 2021\, 12:00-7:00pm Australian Eastern Standard Time. \nThat’s 6:30am-1:30pm in Mumbai and Colombo; \n9am-4pm in Singapore\, Perth\, Kuala Lumpur\, Beijing\, and Hong Kong; \n10am-5pm in Seoul and Tokyo; \n2-9pm in New Zealand; \n1am-8am in London; \n8pm-3am in New York. \nTime Zone Calculator here. \nThere will be an hour-long daily meal break from 3:00 to 4:00pm AEST. \nJanuary 7th will be a day off. \nAll sessions will be recorded and shared with participants. \nClick here for a full description of the workshop. \n“[The KTS Teachers] were fantastic in leading the Online Version of Experiencing Speech. Both were brilliant in understanding our needs\, as well as filling in any “gaps” we might have felt we would have missed from an in-person version. [They] covered all the bases of what we would have and could have wanted from an in-person workshop. As a bonus\, by watching how they managed challenges\, I learned how to effectively and easily teach online! Having all of our sessions recorded and accessible forever is an incredible gift\, and I know I will be returning to it often to re-learn and make sure the nutrients of the sessions really sink in. I will be recommending KTS online or otherwise to anyone who might be interested in something like this. “ \n– Lydia Flock\, London\, England \n  \n\n\n\nWorkshop Costs:       \n\n\n\n\nVASTA Members    \n\n\n$800 USD*\n\n\n\n\nANY Union Members\n\n\n$800 USD**    \n\n\n\n\nNon-members\n\n\n$900 USD***\n\n\n\n\n\n* Use the code “vasta” when checking out.\n** Use the code “unionpride” when checking out.\n*** If you’re interested in repeating an “Experiencing…” workshop that you’ve already taken\, add your name to the “re-taker” waitlist here.
