Sessions 5 & 6: Finding Power in Your Voice and Body

  • Session 5: Voice
    • Connect with one of our Voice and Speech coaches to strengthen your diction, breathing, and more. We can promise you’ll have classes like this in college so even if you’ve already been accepted you can use these sessions to get ahead!
  • Session 6: Movement
    • Some people think acting is all about words, but the truth is acting is a highly physical profession. You never know what you might discover when you explore where a monologue sits in your body. If you’re interested in BFA or Conservatory training you can expect A LOT of Movement classes in college. 

Sessions 7 & 8: Work on Those Life Skills!

  • Session 7: Financial Panning
    • Preparing the perfect audition, writing essays, and filling out applications can consume a lot of time and energy, but it’s important to save some for financial planning. Sit down with Leigh, our Financial Advisor, for breakdown of what to expect and how to plan for your future as a student and an actor!
  • Session 8: Mental Wellness
    • Choose between a Meditation Session with Jeanne or Mental Health Tips with Magen. Balance is the key to any artists life. Take some time to focus on ways you can maintain your mental health through college and your career.

Session 9 & 10: Practice Makes Perfect

  • Session 9: Refining Your Audition
    • Reconnect with an acting coach to continue practicing your pieces. With new insight on text, voice, and movement from your previous sessions, your pieces will be in a great place. Your acting coach will help you put all this technique, knowledge, and training together to refine your audition.
  • Session 10: Mock Audition
    • The final session! Your acting coach will run you through a mock audition and interview. You’ll get a lesson on how to present yourself in an audition and how to leave a lasting impression.
