    I had the privilege of working with Gary and it was truly a transformative experience. He possesses a remarkable depth of knowledge and expertise in the field of acting. Every session was filled with invaluable insights, practical exercises, and personalized feedback that helped me grow as an actor. His constructive criticism was always delivered with kindness and encouragement, allowing me to embrace new challenges without fear. Ive gained a deeper understanding of characterization, emotional range, and the nuances of acting. I wholeheartedly recommend Gary to anyone seeking to develop their acting skills and unleash their full potential.

    Gary is a phenomenal teacher, he helped change my life in both my acting career and personal life. I wanted to get started in pursuing my dream as an actor and I was lost before I met Gary. His method to teaching is simple and easy to understand. His approach is examining life in a profound way and he doesnt over-intellectualize concepts that could confuse you when acting. Before meeting him, I tried other schools that would confuse me and introvert me more as an artist. Gary is very knowledgeable on the craft of acting, and is technical when explaining things that could be complicated or abstract. He has helped me navigate this industry in a more efficient way and has given me the mindset to succeed. His concepts apply to both in acting and in my personal life. My life as an actor and as a person, has improved since I have been learning with Gary. When I first started, I was very closed off and could barely make normal conversation. Gary has helped me open up, gain confidence, and find my voice in life and my art. I have booked multiple lead roles back to back ever since I met Gary, and I am succeeding. Gary is the real deal! I highly recommend him if you are serious about changing your life and getting your career on track. I have found my teacher and community, and I havent looked back ever since.

    Frequently asked questions

    I start with an interview, finding out what experience they have if any and helping them to understand that they come "loaded to act!" 

    Then we move on to a short monologue, if they are new to acting, and work gradually into beginning scene work.  Throughout the process I am helping the actors to understand simple techniques which will help them in their acting work, all the while tailoring the teaching to each specific student.
