DISCOVER

A safe access to true emotions

PEM Studios teaches innovative acting methods based on biological emotional processes connected to organic impulses in the body as well as subconscious processes that serve to unlock the artist’s limitations and restrictions. These methods open up the performers to direct, effortless and repeatable access to authentic emotions on a purely physical basis, without recourse to personal experiences or emotional memory.

“There is much more focus on the health and well-being of the actor in our industry today and in the last decade many conservatoire training institutions around the world have been quick to take to the Perdekamp Emotional Method (PEM). PEM is very easy for people to access, and a powerfully effective tool for actors to develop their craft for stage and film. I notice my students jumping into class work and rehearsals, giving much more of themselves, taking risks, making discoveries and finding more joy in the work. This is because they feel safe. They have a different understanding of emotional access through the bio-physical experience rather than mining their personal psyches. I find PEM an ethical and non-exploitative approach to lead young actors to intense and deep authentic performances.”
