ROB MAXWELL
Rob is a teacher and coach specialising in voice, acting, and embodied communication.
He has taught at leading drama schools in Australia and internationally, including the National Institute of Dramatic Art (NIDA), Yale School of Drama, and Carnegie Mellon University. He holds an MFA in Voice from NIDA and is a graduate of the Atlantic Acting School in New York.
Rob’s coaching spans two worlds: training actors to create characters with depth, truth, and specificity; and supporting professionals to communicate with confidence, clarity, and presence. His process draws on a blend of voice and movement practices, integrated with the Lucid Body technique, an acting process used by Academy Award–winner Lupita Nyong’o and taught at Juilliard, Yale, and NYU. As the only certified Lucid Body instructor in Australia, Rob brings a unique psychophysical approach to performance and communication.
