About Intimacy Coordination Workshop
Charlie Jackson (she/her) is an actress, intimacy coordinator/director and Chapman University graduate with a BFA in Theatre Performance.

As an intimacy professional, Charlie has worked on a variety of projects in film and theatre. She has led workshops and rehearsals for high school and college students.
Participants will learn the basics of how to choreograph scenes with physical intimacy, how to establish and facilitate boundaries between actors, how to communicate with the production team, and which steps to take if you want to become an intimacy professional! This workshop will be highly interactive with games, open discussions, and opportunities for volunteers to choreograph their own scenes.
This workshop will be held at the Burbank YMCA in the rehearsal room on the 3rd floor. Please allow ample time to find parking and sign into the Y. Participants are required to sign into the Y as a visitor. Please wear comfortable clothes and bring water and a snack if you wish!
