Who says play is just for kids?

When you go to acting school and business school at the same time, you learn very quickly that play is powerful. Turns out, there’s even science behind it!

Rooted in performance studies and real-world communication challenges, Claire’s coaching blends the art of theatre with the science of play. Whether you're a CEO, student, attorney, or artist, Powerplay helps you:

  • Think on your feet and adapt with confidence

  • Connect deeply through active listening

  • Lead with presence and clarity

  • Speak with purpose and authenticity

  • Feel grounded and at ease in your body

At Powerplay, our coaching is rooted in play-based learning because:

- Play improves neuroplasticity – Studies show playful environments increase cognitive flexibility, adaptability, and emotional regulation.

- Play reduces stress – When we feel safe and curious, we learn faster and retain more.

- Play strengthens communication – Scene study, improvisation, and storytelling build empathy and intentionality.

- Play enhances embodiment – Physical engagement increases mind-body connection and groundedness.
