ONE DAY WORKSHOPS
Walk Ons
Dec 29
Do you often think that scene looks amazing, let's join? Or I have a great idea, let me come on stage and share it? Then, this 2.5-hour online class is for you. We'll figure out when to walk on, when to walk off and when to just stay off stage and watch. You’ll practice being silent observers, background extras as well as pieces of the environment – all which will serve the scene and create a great stage picture. Learn that it’s ok NOT to always be the main character.
Heighten the Emotion
Jan 5
An online workshop where once you identify your partner’s emotions, you’ll work on helping them heighten that emotion through dialouge, object work and body language. As the player, you’ll learn to lean into your body by active listening and paying attention to how you’re physically responding.

MULTI-WEEK CLASSES
Like, Loathe or Love
Jan 11, 18, 25
Start your scene with a strong choice of how you feel about a character before the first word is spoken. Then, follow those emotions into the discovery of everything you need in a scene from the who, what, where and more! If you are challenged to define relationships in your scenes, this is the class for you.
In 3 weeks, you'll learn how to like, loathe and love your scene partners.
Why?
Mar 1, 8, 15
Discover how the WHY gives you all the layers for backstory, character, point of view, relationships and more. The WHY is not only your purpose but your want, your need, your motivation, your backstory and everything else in between. Knowing WHY is more important than knowing who, what and where.
In this 3 week class, ask the right questions and you'll be surprised how easily the answers come.

I had the pleasure to take a class with Karla and it was stupendous. She really understood the seemingly wide spectrum of my and fellow participants' needs and tailored a perfect session. The exercises and debrief flowed so naturally along with the details referring back to the expectations we had detailed earlier in the class. I would not only recommend learning from her but also watching her performances and playing improv with her- because those are learnings too!
