The Performance Handbook

Meer over het boek

"This book is meant not only for artists, but also to businesspeople, teachers, public speakers - in short, to everyone who must give a performance, no matter what kind. Having been forced to learn, at the beginning of my career, how to manage terrible stress on my own, I would have really benefited from a guide like this one!" Claude speaks to all those who feel stress and anxiety when faced with giving a performance. With the help of examples and suitable exercises, he guides such a person in his/her bat- tle with their fears and brings them to "know their inner alm." Claude offers a means to enter into oneself and take advantage - physically, mentally, and emotionally - of all the conscious and unconscoious resources of one's brain in order to replace nervous- ness and anxiety with pleaure."
