👩‍🎤 Stage presence is one of the main criterias for beatbox battles. But what do we really mean by that and how do you outperform in this field? 👨‍🎤

“Stage presence is the ability to leave a lasting impression on the audience or an opponent.

To do that, we are looking to inhabit our bodies, to feel our beatbox 100% with the audience or our opponent so the stage is not a constraint, but a means of spontaneous expression.”
(Bookie Blanco, 🇫🇷 beatbox champion 22)

Inspired from Kevin Keiss studies, teacher and researcher at Bordeaux Montaigne University in theatre studies and from his own battle and scene experience, the one and only Bookie Blanco will reveal to you all his secrets in order to develop a strong stage presence!

On the 6th April 24, join us for an exclusive (and intensive!) 4-hours beatbox workshop in Agen (FR) to learn how to connect better with your audience and transmit your music with the greatest clarity.

Familiarise yourself with body expression and acting applied to beatbox and learn by practising live with exercises on different themes such as: letting go, focus, sharing letting go, sharing with the audience, connecting with another artist/adversary and setting an atmosphere.

This course is aimed at intermediate beatboxers who want to do live performances.

🚀 Level up your stage presence and learn how to:
🎵 Showcase your beatbox prowess in a captivating stage show.
⚔️ Maximise your winning chances in battles.
🤩 Keep your audience engaged and on the edge of their seats throughout your performance and the ability to communicate with them.
🎭 Express your unique artistic identity and convey emotions that resonate.
🎉 Elevate your live performances to an unforgettable, crowd-pleasing experience.

🎊 Whether you’re a beatboxing aficionado aiming to perfect your stage presence or a newbie eager to dive into the world of live performances, this workshop is your golden ticket to success.

Get ready to own the stage like never before! 🎤🎶
