“Margolis Method connected me with a deeper sense of the physiological impulses which connect thought, emotion, and instinct to communication.”
— Matt Schwader,
Avila University, Director of Performance Studies
VIRTUAL ACTOR WORKOUTS with Kari Margolis
Work your actor muscles, voice, and imagination as one.
Sundays (11-12pm ET) • Wednesdays (7-8pm ET)
Actors are… different. Our workouts should be different too.
Instead of going to an acting class and doing something else for exercise, what if you could do both at the same time?
What if you could work on your body and your craft as one?
Now you can.
The Margolis Method Center is now offering live online Actor Workouts designed to help you more rapidly build the most efficient, expressive actor instrument possible.
The focus of an Actor Workout isn’t specifically about getting big biceps or a six-pack—though that may certainly happen!
It's about:
Finding those internal, hard-to-feel muscles that let us express our characters' emotions in the most nuanced, efficient way.
Connecting our emotions to our bodies and voices on a deep, instinctual level.
Developing actor strength, flexibility, and balance.
Igniting our creative energy.
Feeling healthy, strong, and empowered.
Supporting the longevity of our actor instruments.

A Proven Way to Build an Expressive Actor Instrument
These are the same kinds of workouts that helped build the MB Adaptors ensemble from the ground up, into the world-renowned theatre of heart, mind, and muscle that the Washington Post called, "so exciting, so original, so unexpected, it renews your faith in the artistic future."
Until now, these have been our private workout sessions, only available to MB Adaptors company members, and Margolis Method full-time training and conservatory artists.
If you've ever seen one of our performances or taken a workshop and wondered, "how can they physically express like that?"—this is how.
Join our next session!
