Rachel Glass--Coach, Educator, Actor, Director

I can't imagine working in any other field besides the performing arts and I am passionate about helping artists reach their highest potentials! I use best practices to help adults and children find success who want to step up their game and take their skills and talents to the next level, whether it involves acting, dialects, or public speaking! I have worked with groups in school settings, theatres, corporate, and non-profit settings, as well as one-on-one coaching. My approach follows a student's own specific goals and objectives rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all set of instructions upon all my students, which may hamper

Acting And Singing For The Stage
We are all creative; and performance is the most fundamental form of creativity and expression we can possibly know. Live performance does not require any materials or technology, only our bodies and our minds and our experiences. Actors use memories, experience, and physical sense to create fictional worlds. Most importantly, we learn to empathize with the characters in the stories we tell and that makes us more aware of the world around us--and our effect on it.

Storytelling is a basic human trait. We love to hear stories and we love to tell them - through jokes, shared experiences and, yes, acting. Acting, at its heart, is simply storytelling.
My acting classes focus on the basics of telling a story simply, clearly, and believably. Curiosity, experimentation, and joyful play combine with discipline and technical basics to create an individual experience for each student.
Acting is believing!
I’ve worked as a teaching artist at Seattle Children’s Theatre and Village Theatre’s KidStage, and taught acting and improv at Bellevue College. I’ve been acting professionall

Jazzy Bailey
Hi, my name is Bailey McCully, and I'm a teacher with a different vision: I teach in a way that empowers my students to be themselves adn find their voice in whatever they're learning with me. We learn by exploring, by making mistakes and valuing those just as much as the successes, and by maintaining a courageous curiousity that makes learning sustainable. My classes are about the student and their experiences, and the results are happy students who are truly engaged and excited about my classes. So, I can't wait to move and groove with you!

I am a professional actor/musician with plenty of experience in both fields. I love meeting and teaching new people, and I consider them friends that I can share my knowledge and experience with. I know that there are plenty of folks in the business whose interest in making money and fooling students into paying high prices are more important than getting results. That's not me. I want you to succeed in a competitive business, and I will do everything I can to help you do that.
