Actors: Work deeply, honestly and sustainably.

PEM is a safe and reliable way to access authentic emotion — and it's new to Brisbane.

The Perdekamp Emotional Method works with your physiology, not against it — opening the body, getting out of the head, and unlocking primary emotions through physical access points.

Trusted by working actors from LA to London.

The acting profession features high levels of burn-out. Read about how PEM helps both actors and non-actors in this article!

“On set in Atlanta, Berlin, Vegas or Chicago, a good actor might spend twelve hours in terror, grief or rage—then walk off, grab ramen, laugh with friends, and sleep like a baby.

Another actor plays the same scenes and ends the week shattered.

Stephan Perdekamp explains one big reason. Many actors are trained to convince the brain it’s really in danger.”
