🔥A LOT of tremendous things have been happening at The Actors District these last couple of months! I know we’ve been a bit quiet on the posting because we’re updating our groove but let’s get it cranking! SHOUT OUT to the incomparable Trey Haley , Director and Producer of BET’s Family Business, for coming through and reeeeeally dropping jewels and putting our students through their paces. The time he took and the hands on tutelage he gave was everything. Not just “lecturing” but solid mentorship. Forever grateful and we can’t wait to have you back! Kings to you Trey!

Last night was epic. Thank you for honoring us with the Scholarship Award. It’s an honor to be honored and especially by an institution such as the Ace Awards. This year we have been re-structuring our program and re-tooling quietly. So thank you for honoring us out loud! Our promise is to continue to honor this award by turning out more killas and the illest actors we’ve seen. We don’t make stars, we train THREATS. We’re pushing this thing forward.

💥Miyagi Exercises 💥

The students work hard during these exercises. It takes extreme listening skills, visual skills and emotional skills. They’re not just reciting the phrases over and over. They’re not just improving to improv. They connect through active listening 🙌🏽

You connect with the reader or person in the scene with you, you find their rhythm through their breathing, body language and reactions. You create a visual of who that person is to you in your head and then engage in the dialogue.

Even in the most climaxed and emotional settings the students can still see our coach giving internal instructions using the Miyagi countdown ! Some scenes can be extremely powerful and others can be extremely challenging! These challenges come from our students tapping into different character form.

That’s what they’re working on now, character development and what that looks like.

We hope to see you soon at one of our audits every Tuesday from 7:30pm-10:00pm !

The one and only ladies and gentlemen 🙌🏽

Yesterday class was on fire 🔥 The students had the opportunity to perform partnered Miyagi exercises in from of Ms.Lee ! She was blown away by the structure the students had placed in front of her from the skills they’ve learned in class.

If you don’t know who is then here you go 🙌🏽 Charmin Lee is an American actress, producer, and director, known for her work in Girlfriends, Dynasty, Doom Patrol, The 5th Wave, and Palmer. Beyond the screen, she takes pride in mentoring and empowering actors, helping them grow while giving them platforms and opportunities to shine. Shes a powerhouse at what she does and KNOWS exactly what she’s doing to help make this industry better. Her skills and the way she appreciates the craft of acting in front of the camera as well as what goes on behind the scenes are amazing.

Having her in class last night was nothing short of informative, motivating, guiding, and inspiring 🔥 We’re so happy to have had her and her amazing guests in the building ! We look forward to having her back soon enough ! If you missed class definitely stay on high end when our special guests come through ! 🙌🏽

You never know who may be chosen to be in her next film from our class 👀🙌🏽
