Position:Home>Theater & Acting> How can you have more graceful, elegant movements?


Question:Did you mean on stage?
If so, try moving "thoughtfully." That is, think about every motion and move slower. Try to be overly-dramatic in early run-throughs, then lessen up during the last few practices. This will help a bunch.

Did you mean in everyday movements?
You could still use some-what of the same concept from theatre. Or imagine yourself weightless. Or try doing yoga - you'll feel stretched and limber which should lead to gracefulness.

Good luck!
(A dream indeed...)

This is gonna sound kinda old-school. but try walking around with a book on your head. the better posture you have, the more elegant you will walk.
