The Hollywood Academy of Performing Arts is home to the unique Acting technique “The Art of Thinking”. This technique is the core study of the program, also taught in several of America’s top Universities and applied by “A” list actors. 
​
“The Art of Thinking” entails sequences of analysis and exercises that study the process of thinking. The subtext must be organic and continuously flowing. It must give birth to text and movement unexpectedly. It explores the importance of being present in this reality and applying the same principle to an imaginary world. A full description and explanation of how the unconscious of a character must be created using “The Four databases of information”.
 
Once our students are fully present and have the ability to think organically between the lines, “The Art of Thinking” will be applied to the rest of the existing techniques – Stanislavsky, Grotowsky, Meinsner, Adler, Linklater, etc. Furthermore, the students get to study different types of Text and Dialogue – Classic, Absurd, Contemporary, TV, Film, Solo Performance, Novels, Poetry and/or a different text from the mother tongue. Finally, different forms of drama and expression are applied to modern performance such as Clown, Taichi, Yoga, Free Play, Commedia dell’ arte, etc.
