The individuals listed on this page have gone through extensive training with Ruth Zaporah and actively demonstrate the required skills and conceptual understanding necessary to teach the Action Theater method. Each is a certified and licensed teacher approved by Ruth Zaporah. Following the names and contact information is the year of certification. To view teaching schedules please visit the websites listed. Cassie Tunick, Heather Harpham, Sabine von der Tann and Sten Rudstrøm have been by my side in the studio for at least twenty five years. They were and continue to be stalwart explorers of the Action Theater practice from the days of its raw and bumbling experimentation to it’s current more cogent form. I honor and am deeply grateful for their commitment, perseverance and devotion to the Action Theater practice. |
