WarmUp
Body Training / Improvisation


At the center of body training / improvisation stand cognition and behavior. Individually and in the group, these boundaries are tested and explored with concentration and impulse exercises as well as exercises in communication and language or paraverbal communication. In addition to exercises on individual perception, body awareness, opening and transformation, working in an ensemble, performance, and working in a team is an important part of working with the actors.

Inga Dietrich has been working as a freelance coach and director at Theater Thikwa Berlin since 2010.

Beate Krützkamp
Breath - Voice - Text

The body voice training offers exercises on breathing, articulation and modulation.
Warming up the voice playfully improves clarity, strength and effectiveness of the voice.
In each training session we devote ourselves to a theme (moving house, body, love, sleep, horror, etc.) improvising and developing scenes or choral sequences.
In creative writing, we produce poetry, prose, short dialogues or even spoken word texts.

Since May 2021 Beate Krützkamp has been giving workshops and trainings at THIKWA, Werkstatt für
Theater und Kunst in Berlin.

Acting training / improvisation


The training sensitizes the players to explore and improve their individual playing skills. Various forms of performing arts are explored in a protected space, and different working methods invite the participants to have authentic and creative play experiences. The opportunity to react spontaneously and with relish to different situations as well as learning to perceive each other is an important part of the artistic work. In addition to traditional acting and improvisation exercises, we also work with digital media. This results in cinematic works in which the group develops a script from a spontaneous idea, which forms the basis for the work. Positions such as acting, camera and production management are assigned as the mood takes them, and the results are viewed and evaluated together.
