Guess what? Play is productive.

Powerplay was founded by Claire Sabatine — actor, educator, and communication coach — with one goal: to help people feel more comfortable in their body and voice.

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

  • Think on your feet with confidence

  • Connect deeply through active listening

  • Lead with presence and clarity

  • Speak with purpose and poise

  • Feel seen, heard, and grounded 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 – Roleplay, improvisation, and storytelling build empathy, clarity, and presence.

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

We blend performance techniques with psychological research to deliver learning experiences that stick.
