TRANSFORMATIONAL ACTING — INNER CHANGE
This
is the ability of actors to utilize their current feelings and raw
selves in order to transform who they are ... their emotional ranges
and their psyches into that of the characters they portray. In doing
so, they function, take action, and live the reality and lifestyle of
these characters, without utilization of the past or imagining the
future.
This is all accomplished by using what you, as the actor, are really feeling and who you are.
The Future of Acting
By
using your unique self, Transformational Acting gives you access
to your creativity, humanity and the ability to take risks and
work boldly.
A Beyond Sense Memory technique to develop your ability to use
current emotions ra ther
than recalling from the past. This enables actors to be completely
present. The result is a brilliantly spontaneous and engaging
performance, that fulfills the intention of the material.
Transformational
Acting: A Step Beyond,
Sande's book, is now available.

Sande's Message for 2007
"PENETRATE THE DEEP WEALTH OF YOUR INNER RESOURCES, TAKE MEANINGFUL ACTION AND SOAR TO THE HEIGHTS OF A LIFE WELL LIVED"
"THRU DESIRE PLUS INTENTION WE HAVE PASSION"
Desire also designs our inner raw material
Thru our desires we have preferences
Thru our preferences we take action
Thru our actions we expand
Thru our expansions the entire universe expands
Take meaningful action and experience the exuberance and exhilaration of being unstoppable.
To an extraordinary and unstoppable New Year.
Sande & Bruce
Sande's Message for the Year 2006
Miracles Still Exist.
We may be living through some of the most difficult
times in history, and many of us may give up on miracles. But miracles
only stop when we give up. Especially during these perilous times we
must surrender to and trust the universe to show us the way. It is
during this process of surrender and trust when doors to unexpected
miracles occur.
When we say ³surrender² we don¹t mean
stop. It is time to push our limits beyond our beliefs, push open our
creativity beyond any limitations, and surrender to and trust the
universe. Doors will appear that you never realized were even there and
behind each of these new doors is a miracle.
Wishing you many new doors this coming year.
Sande and Bruce
Sande's Message for the Year 2005
We live in a world of limits, but the limits are
self-imposed. No matter how graceful or difficult a life we choose, it
is by choice, and our reality can be transformed, reshaped or altered
at any time. The world of creativity and spirit are one. This is where
intentions manifest and quantum leaps occur. Quantum leaps are
unpredictable growths, events, experiences and capabilities.
Go beyond the edges of your world, as you now know it to be, into the world of creativity and spirit seeking a limitless life.
To success in 2005
Sande Shurin and Bruce Levy
Sande's Message for the Year 2004
A true artist looks at making a difference in the world with his art.
This requires the artist to bring two seemingly disparate worlds
together: the creative and spiritual with the physical.
The great creative breakthroughs happen when these two worlds align.
Our inner creative self, our awareness, our higher
consciousness, our spirit, our soul, along with our body and actions
can and do become one mind ... one purpose. The physical and the spirit
are interwoven, the source of art and creativity emanating from the
spirit and carried into through the physical.
Look for the inner invisible self--which lives
within--to manifest through your entire body, your entire life. Create
art, create life, manifest your dreams and express your purpose in
every action you take, every thought you think, every deed you do.
Living your life in the "now," as we aspire to do in Transformational
Acting, calls on the inner, creative self to align with the physical.
What a wonderful world this could be, living in the now, harnessing the creative/spiritual with the physical.
Natural, effortless peace?
Perhaps.
Sande
Shurin and Bruce Levy
May
we continue to create, prosper, transform, and unite.
