“I devised my own show and Monika Gravagno mentored me regarding the physicality. Working with Monika was very inspiring. In a relaxed atmosphere, she gave me the time and space to improvise, learn and create, and thanks to her lead and exercises I could bring engaging characters up to life. Monika Gravagno is a great physical theater artist, I could not recommend her more.”

“My mentoring journey was part of continuous learning process, in which Monika played an invaluable role in encouraging and supporting my artistic practice. Having previously learned from her in a group setting, I admired her approach and thus I wanted to explore and build my projects with her on a one to one level.

Every step of the mentoring journey was fuelled by positivity and inspiration. Monika’s approach integrated a lot of reflections and constructive feedback. The structure of the sessions and Monika’s feedback allowed me to take ownership of my ideas, expand them and move forward in my projects, taking it one step at a time. Monika helped me to have more clarity in defining my objectives and tasks and also in identifying the resources I needed along the journey. She supported me and facilitated the process for me to create a holistic vision of what I wanted to achieve.

The sessions provided me with the space and tools to reflect on, review and refine my projects, as well as to nurture my confidence in my own and the courage to explore and test more ideas. Monika’s energy and sense of humour, as well as her experience and professionalism made of the mentoring journey a combination of fun and growth. I am very grateful for all the support I received throughout the sessions!”
