Coaching
What you need is an hour with someone who can see what's working, what isn't, and what to do about it before you hit record.
Most coaches have only sat on one side of the table. I've trained actors for over 25 years, and I've taught film production to students who've gone on to win awards at festivals around the world. So I know what makes a performance true, and I know what makes a casting director keep watching.
In a session we work your actual material:
You leave with a clear plan for the tape or the room. No general advice, no homework you don't need.
Who it's for. Working and training actors with a specific audition, self-tape, or callback. New to auditioning is fine. Meisner training is not required.

Need to move a session? No problem up to 24 hours ahead. Inside that window the session is charged as booked, because the time was held for you.
