Rachel is currently Head of Movement at the Guildford School of Acting.
She trained at the London Contemporary Dance School, graduating in 2006, and in 2009 she was selected for a unique choreographic programme, Dance Beyond Borders, which took her work across Europe, including Germany, Belgium as well as across the UK.
She holds an MA in Choreography from Trinity Laban, a fellowship from the Higher Education Academy, moreover she’s an associate of the Institute for Leadership and Management and a Consent Forward Artist certified by the IDC (Intimacy, Director’s and Co-ordinators).
She has collaborated with the Guildhall School of Music and Drama and the British Youth Music Theatre.
Rachel talks me through her love of movement, how it means different things to different practitioners, her work with animal studies and how people who say “it’s not their thing” can grow to love and embrace it. Not to mention, how integral it is to the actor’s process, finding the body of the character, finding the big expressions and condensing it down into a natural character’s characteristics. Thus helping the actor to have a full body experience of the person they’re playing whether it’s for stage or screen.
