Do you want to get out of your head?
Are you looking for a reliable, practical acting technique?
Are you looking for a deeply joyful, authentic process that allows you to become fully present in your body and responsive to your partner?
Do you want to revive the love you have for your craft?
Our part-time, year-long Meisner training follows a modular format that allows the actor to sign up for one, two, or all three modules at the outset – or to pick up subsequent modules later if their circumstances change.
The training is flexible to accommodate the unpredictable nature of an actor's career and personal life; you can defer modules after starting the program to align with new projects, roles, or necessary breaks, ensuring a balance between professional commitments and your learning journey.

If you are intrested in applying, follow the steps below.
Please read through our terms and conditions before applying.
For our returning students, the enrollment process is streamlined for your convenience. As you're already part of the Impulse family, there's no need for another conversation or questionnaire. Simply select your desired course and enroll directly. We're excited to have you back and continue your journey with us, building on the skills and experiences you've already acquired.
Once you have signed up and paid your deposit, you have access to all three modules at a time that suits you. Whilst most people tend to do their 3 modules one after the other, occasionally an actor may book a job, or life happens, and you need to put it on hold. Let us know that you need to defer, and when you would like to jump back in, and we will find a place for you.
We use Wise for our international payments, and can accept payments by card and/or in Euros and US and Australian dollars as well as sterling. Contact us if you wish to pay in another currency. Read more about paying by credit card with Wise.
Class sizes vary from year to year but are unlikely to consist of more than 20 people. Between eight and 15 has been the average over the 20 years we’ve been running the course.
Because the Technique is experiential, classes are practical and are, we believe, unique in the amount of personal tuition and feedback you’ll receive.
The majority of students will begin with Module 1, Living Truthfully. Even if you’ve done an introductory course with us, or elsewhere, it can only give you a flavour of what the Technique can deliver.
Students who have already have a significant body of experience with The Impulse Company may begin with either Module 2 – The Given Set of Circumstances – or Module 3 – A State of Aliveness, using it as a showcase opportunity, with Scott’s agreement.

I did extra training while I was filming Hustle. I’d finish a six-hour acting day then train with Scott for three hours on a Friday and six hours on a Saturday. He reinvigorated my love for acting.
