LET'S BUILD CONFIDENCE!

The primary goal of Dramatic Arts coaching is to develop the fundamental skills and techniques of drama and acting for various settings (film, stage, or television), or just for the students own personal development. But wait! Dramatic Arts coaching is an incredible tool to use for improving confidence, public speaking skills, creativity, teamwork/leadership, communication and so much more!

The classes are well suited for the beginner actor as well as for those who have had previous experience. Students will get personalized programming based off of their interest and skill levels enabling them to learn the discipline required to develop. Allyson Brown has a great love and passion for working with students that have learning exceptionalities. This may include, but is not limited too, students with ADHD/ADD, autism, deaf/blind, down syndrome, anxiety etc.​

Private and group classes available!
