Jim S. says, "I’ve been working with Didi for almost a year and I couldn’t be happier with the results. From the first consultation she has been patient and supportive. I now feel a lot more in control and confident while singing and I’ve expanded my range to almost 3 octaves. Her student-centered approach has allowed me to learn by doing, and I feel like I’m now finding my voice. I’ve gone from thinking I might be tone deaf to playing open mics, writing more complicated melodies into my own songs, and collaborating with other musicians. I’d highly recommend Didi to anyone that wants to learn!" Read more

When it comes to lessons, it is important to me that each student has an individualized plan specific to them. No one is cookie cutter. Not everyone learns and grows the same. Everyone's journey is different and I want to make sure that each student meets their individual goals and progress at the rate that is right for them. It is important to make sure each student is having fun - not just meeting goals. Music is an art form and a blessing but it can also be difficult and challenging. Within that challenge, I hope to create fun and joy for my students as they progress. Quick overview of my accomplishments and trainging: I have been in the e...

Bill M. says, "Ruby is wonderful to work with, and she's relentlessly positive. She's always so relaxed and supportive that she makes it easy and fun to try new things without embarrassment (like starting to sing). She works tirelessly to help me expand my comfort zone, and she takes it in stride when I'm "unintentionally" stubborn or too stupid or scared to take her advice. All her coaching/help has been spot-on from day one, and I'm continually impressed with her insights and creative spirit. She's also an amazingly powerful vocalist, which is awesome to listen to. I wholeheartedly recommend her to others!" Read more

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

Reviews for Brentwood acting classes

Recent success stories from people in the Brentwood area.
Joel E.
Didi Benami has helped me with my voice more than any other vocal coach I’ve ever had. As she worked with me, lightbulbs kept going off about things other teachers were trying to teach me in the past that never fully clicked. Suddenly it all made sense. The way Didi explained how the voice works made it easy for me to understand what was going on and how to navigate out of my bad habits. I have been able to sing better than ever and have a clear path to strengthening my voice and being able to sing the way I’ve always wanted. What’s cool is that I’ve actually watched Didi grow as a singer and have seen first hand how hard she has worked at her craft. Over the years, she’s studied with the best vocal coaches around and it shows in her coaching. Once she began working with Ron Anderson, I could immediately tell the difference in the strength, range and confidence in her voice. It was clear that Ron’s training was making a major impact on Didi. It is expressed in her teaching and how she passes on her knowledge and experience to her students. She really cares and is extremely dedicated to seeing her students succeed. I recommend Didi Benami to any one I know looking for good vocal coaching.
