There is a system of muscles in the human body that is the source of life's fundamental process. These are the Ring Muscles, also known as sphincters. There are Ring Muscles in every part of our body, both internally and externally and it is their coordinated and harmonious contraction and relaxation that initiates breathing, digestion, circulation, elimination, and all muscular motion. Paula Garbourg, the developer of The Paula MethodT explains that the basic principle behind her method of self-healing is the way the Ring Muscles function; their importance in everyday life, and the problems that can result when they fail to work together properly. Based on decades of experience, Paula Garbourg developed a series of exercises that will allow you to take advantage of this revolutionary approach to self-healing and get cured or relief from most common ailments. Paula Garbourg observed that when the Ring Muscles all work together, we are in good health. When  the Ring Muscles do not work together, illness and imbalance result. By improving the functioning of these muscles, she discovered, we can free ourselves of various pains and health problems. Improvement of the Ring Muscles function is done through a series of exercises, in which we contract and relax certain muscles such as the eyes, nostrils, mouth and lower Sphincters that creates a chain reaction, reaching and healing ailing Ring Muscles. Being that each body is different from the other, there are no particular exercises for any given ailment and it might take several exercises to find the most functional exercise that will initiate the chain reaction and will result in body balance, healing the ailing part.

 Application of The Paula Method™ in the performing arts

The Paula Method™ helps to develop the Presence on stage, the Imagination and Concentration, the Creativity, the Breath and Voice, the Emotional Unlocking and the capacity of Communication.

Actors Training  

"ENERGY, CREATIVITY AND IMAGINATION" Regular classes Every Thursday, 19:00h -  22:00h SpazioUno (Lichtenraderstr. 11, 12049 Berlín – U8 Boddinstr.) Cost: 20€ / class; 10 classes - 150€ My work is based on the technique of Mr. Michael Chekhov and inspired by the philosophy of Mr. Jerzy Grotowski. I express my deep gratitude to my teacher, Mr. Peter Gadish, for all the knowledge he passed on to me during the last 15 years. The class is divided in two parts: Part I: In the first part we use The Paula Method of the Ring Muscles. It is a very useful tool to unlock and channel the  energy, expand the physical and vocal capacity and  enhance the imagination and creativity of the participants. It is followed by an individual improvisation of which I propose a different theme each session.  Part II: The second part consists of several theater games to enhance imagination and spontaneity, the ability to improvise and work in group, to listen and comunicate, to create different characters, situations, physical actions and atmospheres.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Workshops Berlín 2010/2011 – Maria Stoyanova
