While nothing can replace the experience of taking classes in person, online acting programs do offer certain advantages. Online classes allow you to establish a consistent practice at home.

Most importantly, online classes allow students the flexibility to study with us from anywhere in the world, without the need to relocate to New York or Los Angeles.
