Acting Lessons in Bouckville. Amazing Teachers.

I believe that acting is for everybody! Through acting, we grow our critical thinking abilities and analysis skills, as well as our ability to communicate effectively. Additionally, acting encourages self-confidence, empathy, and creativity. And of course, practicing a form of self-expression helps to blow off steam and decrease stress.

As an actor, I have experience with a variety of styles, including Shakespeare and Improv, and I am familiar with a number of methods, including Stanislavski, Meisner, Chekhov, Hagen, Alexander Technique, and Margolis Method. I believe in mind-body connection and building an actor’s toolbox for independent performers. I have taught actors of all ages and interests.

My Focus is Monologues ONLY. Retaining your script (retention), pronunciation, articulation, volume, speed, poise, posture, presentation and more. Need help writing your script? I can help with that too. Let's begin!

My goal is to share my knowledge as a classically trained actor and film director. I will create lesson plans catered to each individual that captures the complex and wonderful world of theatrical and on-camera performance. Students will be exposed to various acting methods created by Uta Hagen, Stanislavsky, Michael Chekhov, and others. Students will participate in multiple exercises and performances that will build and strengthen their bodies, voice, mind, and heart.

I can't really talk too much about how other teachers work, and also don't want to. But I know I have and always had many happy and successful students. From kids, adults, professionals, hobbyists to people who retired and finally have time to fulfill a life goal.

I have taught, coached, and directed artists of all ages and experience levels, from children as young as toddlers to professional actors. I also work as a reader for a top casting office in the city, and have extensive experience teaching online.

I hold a BFA in acting from Hofstra University, and continue to study with the best teachers in NYC. I am a proud member of Actors' Equity Association and NYWITF.

As an actor, I have had starring roles in national tours, award winning regional theaters, as well as TV and film.

I'm not only your coach, but also your cheerleader. I believe in nurturing you as both an artist and person.

Acting skills can be used in EVERY setting. I have used those abilities extensively in my public speaking career as well as acting performances in television, commercials, and theater.
