"You have forever changed my life." …Aaron Sever (Student)
GUT REACTING TM (Adults 18+)
Be Honest from Moment to Moment
Levels 1 and 2*
GUT REACTINGTM is a unique technique styled to bring out the best performances in actors at every level and medium. Classes will focus on Trust, Connection and Communication. Students will use various tools and exercises to get "in the moment" quicker than ever. Linda Waymire’s GUT REACTINGTM method ("whole actor concept") should be the foundation of any actor’s or performer’s training.
Actors will use every tool that is naturally available to them to reach a deeper level of understanding of their characters. Unlike traditional improvisation, this class is not only a method moving actors to think on their feet, but to to feel and connect completely, using their hearts, minds and spirit. As with all of the classes we offer at Waymire Studio, it is fun and informative and offered in safe and nurturing environment. In addition, students will be guided to reach a deeper level of emotion within themselves, and a higher degree of connection with their scene partners.

"I was so nervous to take this class because I had not done anything acting related in awhile. I even thought about backing out. I can tell you that I am so thankful that I did take the class. You have helped me in so many ways, and not only as an actor. You have helped me with my confidence; to know that I really can do anything! I cannot begin to thank you enough for everything! I have enjoyed these past six weeks so much. It has given me something to look forward to." …Katie Coughlin (Student)

Linda Waymire brings a different approach to acting that I haven’t found anywhere else. Her ability to get to the core of the character so rapidly is phenomenal. The visualizations at the end of the class are inspiring. She brings a fresh and unique approach to acting.
