I’ve been to a few other acting schools before but this one takes the gold! There is so much treasure at this school and the instructor Lisana and the environment make it a place to be able to feel no judgement and to grow. Here is a place where I was able to express myself, experiment, and learn so much about myself. I think as an actor getting to know yourself so well is important and this place fosters it. I can see myself being at this acting school for many years as I am growing in my acting career. I really like the exercises and techniques that the new perspectives give me.

She teaches with so much passion it motivates me to continue improving my acting skills. She articulates each lessons so simply anyone can learn to act if they put their minds to it.

One would never be left unprepared in any acting job they get if they absorb and utilize take one’s teachings. More importantly, the classes prepare you for a multitude of tasks in the real world, whether it’s presenting a work project or speaking to someone you don’t want to. I highly recommend take one’s...
