Founded in 1977 around its flagship program, The Creative Dynamic (formerly The Mastery of Acting), The Actors Institute is dedicated to discovering, exploring, and encouraging the process of creativity in individuals. Over the past two decades, highly trained and professional acting instructors have helped thousands of actors develop their talents. The Actors Institute provides actors with a nurturing and supportive environment where they are challenged to reach beyond the normal boundaries of their personalities and achieve new levels of creativity and artistry, and that training is reinforced in the daily acting classes, workshops and environment.

I provide optimistic, one-on-one coaching that is affordable, comprehensive and, above all, FUN! Some of the areas that are covered are:
