THE POWER OF THE ACTOR
Be Empowered
The Chubbuck Technique is all about making empowered choices in our acting work taking our pain, insecurities and fears and winning.
This is a twelve step system where we use our pain in our work as fuel to overcome and win and create catharsis. The Chubbuck Technique helps us not just in our acting work, it helps us in our real life overcome and solve that which is causing us pain, through this technique we become empowered, taking the victim out of being a victim.
The Chubbuck Technique
Suzie has been studying the technique since 2010 and in 2012 she went to LA to further study at Ivana’s Studio. Suzie has taken part in Masterclasses in London and audited many of them both in the UK and abroad.
In 2020 when Ivana began teaching her classes online Suzie started working with her every week and in 2022 she trained and qualified as a Certified Chubbuck Coach ready to help others become empowered in their acting journey
