STORYTELLING
Gravitas. We all recognise it when we see it. The person who commands a room, who is just as compelling one-to-one as they are on a stage.
Most people think of actor training as learning to pretend. It isn't. Presence. Truth. That's what makes an actor compelling on screen, and exactly what makes someone compelling in a boardroom. The ability to stop performing and actually connect.
Without it, too many brilliant people get overlooked. Their voices never quite land the way their ideas and expertise deserve. That's what we work on. With executives and lawyers who need to communicate with gravitas and authenticity.
Not presentation skills in the corporate training sense. Something more useful than that. A lasting embodied approach, built from actor training technique and real corporate experience.
It's what we call The Anima Method® and it works because it gets to what's actually in the way.
LET'S GET YOU TO THE RIGHT PLACE

MEET THE FOUNDERS
Luke Marquez
Luke trained at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama before founding Wrong Shoes Theatre Company, an Arts Council funded organisation touring the UK with devised and immersive new work. He went on to co-found The Actor Rebellion, where he is Head of Acting, training professional actors for film and television using Meisner technique and the later work of Stanislavski.
Rebellion Presence grew out of that work: years of training barristers and global business leaders alongside professional actors, and finding the same things in the way. He works primarily with C-suite executives and senior barristers, bringing the same precision and patience he applies in professional actor training to the specific communication demands of high stakes professional contexts.
Hannah Marquez
Hannah trained as an actor before spending two decades in marketing and advertising with brands such as Dyson and Vodafone, and has since continued to work as an actor and acting coach. That combination gives her something most trainers don't have. She has sat on both sides of the room, and her corporate experience has grounded the work of Rebellion Presence in lived business practice. Her focus is the specific communication challenges that professional women face: the moments where capability and presence don't land together the way they should.
