%X This article is a reflection on the four body energy states developed by Arthur Lessac: Buoyancy, Radiancy, Potency e Inter-Involvement and their use in the training of actors. Through a descriptive analysis of three explorations carried out according to Lessac¡¯s approach, this article indicates ways to use these energies to animate the game of improvisation, to the characterization of characters and to the vocal action. We also establish a relation between the actor¡¯s energy and his scenic presence.
