Heidi brings her real-world professional experience into the classroom, passionately working with each actor to deliver a grounded, true-to-life performance. She also insists that actors leave with recordings to help promote their careers, as she genuinely cares about each actor's success. I learned a lot in a short amount of time, and I highly recommend her class.
Improvements:
Different day/time options. Monday during the day is tough for me.

I really enjoyed this workshop! It was interesting to watch the auditions and hear the adjustments from both coaches. And then having “callbacks” on the second day and incorporating what we learned to make our auditions better. Both coaches had positive constructive criticism and were very encouraging to everyone. It was a very positive environment and a very complete training experience. I feel like I am already a better actor for attending this workshop. Thank you! Sincerely, Nancy Cole
Improvements:
Can’t think of any improvements, the set up was very professional and the videotaped auditions all looked and sounded good!
