A Ten Month Continuous Journey into the Technique of creative freedom as developed by Nikolai Demidov

Delivered by Andrei Biziorek, the only Certified Demidov Teacher in the UK.

September 2026 - June 2027

This in-depth course in the Demidov School of Acting is designed for actors who are serious about developing a complete and practical inner technique - one that enables consistent access to artistic inspiration and the ability to fully experience and live on stage or screen.

The entire course, delivered in five stages, is taught in person at our studio at Pushkin House. Over the course of ten months, actors will explore an extensive part of the Demidov curriculum in greater depth, including how to approach a role through this work. The course is designed so that each stage unfolds seamlessly into the next, as our experience deepens.

The aim of the course is to cultivate our innate talent, so that is develops smoothly and organically, liberating our subconscious creativity and creating a natural path to each actor's unique artistic individuality. The Demidov School of Acting approaches the creative process as an indivisible whole (everything you need is there from the beginning). Throughout this course, actors develop their creative reflexes (spontaneous reactions) to live truthfully in each moment - and to experience what true creative freedom means.

We are looking for actors who are committed to diving deeply into the Demidov work; who are drawn to explore their own creative process and who they are as artists. The group chosen for the course will work as an ensemble across the ten months of training.
