Jeffrey H. says, "Kevin Ryan is an incredible acting coach. I’ve watched his work on the TV shows Copper and Harry Wild as an actor and couldn’t believe it when I found him on here teaching. He is the ultimate professional. For me, an absolute beginner, his approach was super clear and he made sense of the whole acting process (which seemed daunting and scary before working with Kevin). I look forward to continue to work with Kevin as he has so much to offer in every aspect of acting." Read more

Yes, the theme is drama; however, the vibe is as pleasant as the people who are involved. Steve is a superb instructor who not only teaches the art of acting thoroughly in an uncomplicated manner, but also leads with empathy and sincerity.

Needless to say I was petrified! Andy’s comedy chops are spot on! He has been guiding me with such care and precision, unearthing some delightful qualities of this character and helping me find her voice. I would recommend him to anyone and everyone! " Read more

I have been acting and teaching for over 10 years and my career has taken me from London to New York City and Los Angeles. By focusing on the complete performer I work on voice, movement, text analysis and relaxation. I will help you to build confidence and give you a working method that you can continue to use outside of lessons. I will also provide resouces and advise for navigating the industry. I am passionate about theater, acting and storytelling because it is the ultimate shared experience where we learn to lay ourselves bare in an attempt to truly connect to those around us.

I have a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre from UC Irvine, completed the Summer Training Congress at The American Conservatory theatre, and Studied acting at the San Francisco Ruth Asawa School of the Arts High School. I've performed at The San Diego Symphony, La Jolla Playhouse's WoW Festival, and Comic-Con immersive shows. I enjoy seeing students develop new skills. My favorite thing is seeing it "click" for a student in understanding how easy it can be with work and practice. A respect for acting is necessary while not taking ourselves too seriously. Whatever you're looking for in an acting teacher, I can provide the knowledge, encouragement, an...

Your Acting Classes questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do acting classes cost?

Acting classes cost $25 to $65 per hour on average for group classes or $50 to $150+ per hour to hire a private acting coach. Prices vary depending on where you live and the instructor's experience and reputation. Acting studios that offer ongoing weekly classes typically charge $150 to $350 per month.

Acting courses and workshops can cost as little as $200 to as much as $2,800+, depending on the content, number of sessions, and the instructor's demand. Some acting workshops are short, 1- or 2-day intensive classes focusing on one aspect of the industry, while other programs last 4 to 8 weeks and cover several topics, methods, and techniques.

Most studios offer a free trial class so you can get a feel for the teaching style and decide if it's right for you.

Are online acting classes worth it?

Online acting classes are worth it if you want to pursue acting and are unable to attend acting classes in person. With online video calling platforms like Zoom and Skype, you can now study acting with the best in the industry from the comfort of your own home! Many reputable acting coaches—including those right here on Lessons—now offer online acting classes and teach the same methods and techniques that they teach in the studio. 

Do you need acting classes to become an actor?

You technically don't need acting classes to become an actor. However, acting classes can help you gain confidence, learn new methods and techniques, analyze scenes and scripts, and build new industry connections and relationships. Acting classes can also teach you about the business side of acting, which is as important as acting itself.

How long do acting classes take?

Acting class length varies depending on the studio and the type of class. Some studios have 2-hour classes, while others have classes lasting 3 to 5 hours. Depending on the location, acting classes may be offered in several formats, such as ongoing weekly classes, weekend intensive workshops, and training programs that can run anywhere from 2 to 8+ weeks.

What skills do you need to be an actor?

While the necessary skillset varies depending on the type of acting you pursue (think Broadway theater vs. TV commercials vs. film), all actors need a broad range of skills to portray the expressions and emotions of a character so effectively that they temporarily transport the audience to a world where the actor is indeed that character. This often involves:

  • Memorizing lines and stage cues
  • Analyzing scripts and scenes
  • Developing a character's emotions and physical expressions
  • Working with other actors, directors, and production crews
  • Adapting to unexpected changes and situations
  • Speaking clearly and adjusting one's voice to align with the character
  • Learning and developing different acting methods and techniques
  • Being comfortable in front of an audience or camera

He is insightful. He recognizes your strengths as well as your weaknesses and he will have you working on both to boost your confidence. I already see a difference in my confidence level. Marc has proven to me that he knows this industry and what he is doing. "I'm ready for my close-up Mr. DeMille." ;^)

Melissa is a phenomenal acting coach! My ten-year old daughter has grown and learned so much through Melissa’s performing arts workshop. Melissa is extremely experienced and knowledgeable in acting techniques and the acting industry. Melissa is positive, energetic, fun and caring. She makes the classes fun for kids while simultaneously teaching. Highly recommend this workshop!

Firstly, Kenwa has so much integrity. Second….she is an amazing teacher - the best - she’s incredibly smart and knowledgeable - and funny - and makes her classes so joyous! She teaches for all levels and really connects with the students one on one. As an event planner and yoga studio manager, I highly recommend Kenwa to teach or to lead an event. She puts her heart and soul into it and that comes through in the experience.

Cathy is a pleasure to work with. I came to Cathy with no singing experience. She always takes the time to answer my questions and to develop a lesson plan specific to my needs. During my time with her she has helped me to expand my vocal range and boost my confidence to perform in public. She even provided me with some CDs with vocal exercises and warmups. I’d definitely recommend Cathy!
