WEEKLY CLASSES    

Beginning Class: 

The goal of this class is to provide a safe environment where the novice may explore self-expression through acting.

You will:

- Develop keen listening and answering skills through the Meisner repetition technique

- Learn to act before you think

- Shut down the inner critic telling you how you should perform

- Begin to develop characters through scene work

- Acquire auditioning skills

Beginning to trust your own point of view in the moment is the first step to realizing the actor in you.

Advanced Class

This class is for the actor who has good fundamental skills and wants to refine technique. Each actor prepares a character differently, utilizing his/her own instrument.

You will:

- Explore the emotional center of a character

- Develop physical characterizations

- Find your own voice using scene study

- Learn the keys to getting a role and making it your own

- Never be intimidated by a cold reading

This class will put you on the path to a successful acting career -- whatever avenue you choose to explore: film, TV, or theater
