Over 12 years coaching Theatre and 5 years tutuoring in English, Writing and Public Speaking.
Thespian Journey offers private coaching, consulting and group classes to individuals interested in pursuing a career in Arts and Entertainment. I also provide private tutoring in the academic areas of Creative Writing, Essay Writing, Public Speaking and English.
We work with ages 5-18 years old or those at a K-12 educational level.**Due to COVID-19, class sizes will be no greater than 10 students and on-line private coaching is now available.
What makes us unique is that we build long-term relationships with our students, catering our services to meet their individual needs and goals. Our focus is on helping our students every step of the way, from their first play audition in grade school to their first college audition at an arts-focused conservatory or university.
From a technical acting perspective for both stage and film, we teach our students the basics of theatre etiquette, stage direction, blocking, hitting your mark, audition techniques and assist with acting resume/headshot formatting.
From a theatrical acting perspective, we meet individuals where they are in their artistic process and help them develop from that point forward. Through physical movement, monologue and scene analysis, we help students step outside their boundaries and tap into their unique talents. We help students select monologues and scenes, learn how to dig deeper and connect with a character, develop that character and be able to confidently perform in front of others.
We also assist those students who want to write their own performance pieces.
From a Consulting perspective, we work with high school age performers to help them decide on the perfect path for their thespian journey by assisting in college selection and preparation for college auditions. We also work with actors who are ready to seek agency representation in their local markets.
We work with students with both dramatic and comedic emphasis and those interested in stage and/or commercial, television and film.
Our model is built upon the belief that together we are better, which is why we take pride in partnering with our students on their Thespian Journey toward success.
