YOUNG ACTORS AT STRASBERG-New York

ACTING CLASSES FOR KIDS & TEENS

Acting is a unique endeavor that relies on professionals of all ages, making young actors an integral part of the film, television, commercial and theatre industries. Acting classes are vital for supporting aspiring young actors in honing their natural talents while preparing them to successfully enter the professional realm. After all, great actors are not born but made. Youth acting classes for kids and teens can help inspired students achieve their highest potential.

At The Lee Strasberg Theatre & Film Institute, we offer a comprehensive selection of acting classes which train young actors to use The Method. Our classes are designed to give children and teens the tools they need to succeed in the world of acting, while maintaining a sense of playfulness. Through Young Actors at Strasberg (YAS), students learn the art of storytelling, train to access their authentic emotions and responses, and foster a sense of creativity and collaboration.
