What do you get when you enrol in ACTING 101?
I mean can it really be that good?
It is.
Why? Well, this is a bit personal but you’re here to learn from ME and with me…this is whatchaget!
I did not grow up flush with cash. In fact I grew up in an unstable world with a lot of different people raising me and it took me a long time to develop the skills to create a stable life with a stable income.
I mostly coach actors who are pretty well off but I want EVERYONE to have access to what I do. Because what I do can change the life of someone who has ALL THE TALENT and few of the resources.
That matters to me. Since I can’t ask you “how much dough do you have?” I make this course affordable to everyone.
The truth is there is about $10,000.00 worth of classes in this course. It’s an incredible bonus to any actor.
I hope you have a good heart, a strong drive and a desire to be a great actor and person. That’s who I want to coach.
Either way this course is yours for an incredibly discounted price.
Because I love actors - whether they’re from wealthy or not so wealthy families. I love actors and I’ve seen, through my experience with them, that they do great things with their work. They use their influence to make the lives of others better through their work on screen and off.
To be a part of that is… impossible to quantify. It’s breathtakingly beautiful. I feel lucky to coach you.
