With over 20 years of experience in writing, public speaking, acting, and directing, I love nothing more than to see someone learn how to more confidently and authentically express him/herself. Working with hundreds of people over the years, I have developed a method that is easily adaptable to all kinds of personalities, skill levels, and experience. I have a degree in Theatre from Florida State University. Worked in Los Angeles for several years and am a proud member of SAG-AFTRA. Look forward to working with you! - Zach

Meg A. says, "I came to Logan not with acting aspirations, but for help with my confidence and public speaking skills. I naturally excelled in neither, but as a teacher, both of those soft skills are required in spades. Since our talks, I've become much more comfortable in my own skin and in front of my class, enabling me to "perform" for my students and really get them engaged in the lessons, even when they contain otherwise dry content. I'm so thankful for his teaching me to allow myself to step out of my comfort zone. I love how supportive and encouraging he is, and I look forward to more lessons with him." Read more

I have performed in a wide variety of professional roles across Orlando. I have been hired in Equity Disney roles and have been in a multitude of short films and, recently a couple feature films. I can give realistic advice and help with acting for the camera and stage. Take lessons from someone who’s done the work and has had the roles near the top. I've also done a fair amount of schooling as well but I don't give them much credit because I was. mainly self trained when I was young. I love acting. It is all I have talent wise and the only thing I rely on to survive. That being said I am fortunate enough to really LOVE it as well and enjoy i...

Your Acting Classes questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

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

Austin has been an incredible teacher so far. He’s punctual, results-driven and is able to adapt his lessons to my learning style. Billing and logistics have also been very satisfactory.

Paxton choreographed my wedding dance, and she made me feel like a pro! She's very patient with beginners, and by the end of it all, my wife and I looked dashing and elegant on the dance floor together. She's also a talented acting teacher! I've nailed multiple auditions through her coaching. I couldn't recommend her enough.

Billy always makes my lessons fun so we always have a blast whether we are in the studio or or out social dancing. I can tell he really cares about my progress and pushes me to be a better dancer. Lessons range from connection and technique to learning new patterns and creating routines. Billy is great about making his routines fit the music and telling a story to any piece of music. He has the experience and is worth the time if you're just beginning or have experience yourself. Happy dancing!

When I trained with Aixa, I was happy knowing that she didn't subscribe to any one particular method or technique of acting like some instructors do. She approaches the craft from a variety of angles, and focuses on telling a clear and compelling story.

There are no words to describe the faculty at Skyra Studios! From their professionalism to their expansive knowledge, the team offers high-quality training in a variety of performing arts that you can't find anywhere else in Central Florida. It's a great opportunity to not only receive high-level training in the performing arts, but the program offers you the chance to learn from working professionals, build a network in the industry, and takeaway valuable, professionally-packaged performance reels of your work. I would highly recommend Skyra Studios to any parent who's child is looking to become a performing arts professional.
