“…because accent practice can be a lonely process especially during COVID.” -J.B.

If you're an actor working on an accent you already have these two things..

  1. A strong desire to practice and improve. 

  2. Free time to work on your accent. (Suddenly, a lot!)

Now, the only thing you need is support & accountability.

Welcome to the Accent Gym with @dialectsnow, a cyber study group moderated by dialect coach Eliza Simpson and filled with like-minded actors. 

For one hour, you'll practice pronunciation & intonation (yes, we'll all be in accent the whole time.) Your moderator will assign you a scene ahead of the study group. When we begin the hour you'll be matched with a scene partner and everyone will get a chance to perform. You'll receive feedback from the moderator on your accent performance AND benefit from the work and adjustments of your peers. This is a safe, focused space to improve your craft and test your limits. No more practicing alone in front of the mirror. Speech is a social exercise. Let's do this together!

Each cyber study group is capped at 6 participants to make sure that everyone gets time to work. Entry (normally $50) is currently $35 per participant, with your social distance discount, and also secures you a video recording of the hour for your personal practice and review.
