Finland based company Anu Almagro Actor Training Tmi share profound and holistic acting technique workshops. 

With Anu experience fully engaged flow of actions together with the group. Through the common exercises the ensemble will be built. The process of working with an ensemble could be described with a metaphor of a human body. Each member of the ensemble represents one part of it. Only together it is possible to build one moving and sounding whole; the body. Another metaphor for this particular holistic physical theatrical work could be an orchestra. Every action and sound of each instrument/ each participant creates the full and balanced sound and musically whole performance.
