Do you want to step up to the stage with more confidence\, and less self-doubt? Are you looking to be in char ge of your
thoughts\, emotions and behaviours? This workshop has just the answer. \;
Going up o n stage and exposing yourself (pun intended) can be very scary. But also v ery empowering. And also triggering. But also liberating. And can for sure bring on some self-doubt:
Am I good enough?
Why should anyone listen to me?
Doesn't everyone else know more than me?
Isn’ t everyone else funnier?
And when you get of the stage\, the questio ns keep popping in your head: “was it good?”\, “I should have said i t differently”\, “what was I thinking?”\, “were those pity laughs? ”
Your inner critic is always har d at work…
A lot of emotions come up when doing stand-u p. No matter if you are a beginner or a more experienced comedian\, it can still bring about the dread of not being good enough\, making a fool of y ourself\, and confirming your worst fears.
But\, it can a lso be a brilliant and almost therapeutic way to overcome self-doubt\, sel f-sabotage\, gain confidence and find that sweet spot where masks come off and you find yourself flying!
In this workshop\, psychol ogist Alexandra Neves will guide you through the following:
-Imposto r syndrome: the pattern in which a person doubts their skills\, talents an d achievements
and is afraid of being unmasked as fraud\, an imposte r.
.-Identify and bring into awareness your limiting beliefs and develop practical tools fo r
.overcoming and releasing them.
-How you can tame your in ner critic\, and use it to your advantage\, in comedy and in life.
- The masks we wear\, and why we wear them.
-And ultimately how to dev elop more self-confidence.
These are all transferable ski lls that can positively impact your stage presence\, but also your profess ional and personal life.
