Should I Take Online Acting Classes?

[@SeverineHowellMeri]

Online classes are so important. I recently started teaching alongside my acting career and love the accessibility that teaching over zoom offers. Actors, don’t stop learning because of the state of the world. Thank you Wendy for encouraging people to keep learning and chasing their dreams.

[@wendyalane1]

You are so very welcome!

It makes total sense that it's almost all business. Thanks for this video, it gave me some motivation I've been lacking. I'm making it my goal to take classes as soon as possible but I've been worried about them being online.

Wendy 😍. You are the most “ Prefect Professional “ out there that knows the ropes of Acting and how to guide us on the path to do it the right way about it. No one can hold a candle 🕯 to you. Thanks to you. 🥰😘. You say it like it is. Thanks to you for showing me the beautiful professional people in my online acting class, such as Shari Shaw, I love 💕 that lady to the ends of the universe, and I have beautiful people in my online Zoom classes I love as my friends and college is way to expensive too. I could never afford to fly down and go to a LA class and fly back home to Alaska. You made it possible for all us Actors out there you call your kids. You are the best mommy for us actors .💐🌹🤩

[@wendyalane1]

Thank you so much for your beautiful, kind words! I love you right back!

Stanislavski method is a Russian made method. 👌

[@wendyalane1]

I know...my bad, I meant to say Russian.

[@gargaritaladybug6997]

Thank you Wendy! Your videos is always eye-opening. I've been studying acting for some years, but mostly alone, and feared so much to try entering the business. You give so much courage with your videos!

[@wendyalane1]

You're so very welcome! You are capable of more that you know. I believe that you can do it if you are willing to try. So start very small by taking an online class and just try. Houde School of acting is a very safe and loving space. www.houdeschoolofacting.com I was terrified for years and I got over it completely. So can YOU!

[@gargaritaladybug6997]

Omg i would love to meet you in person and have you as my coach.

[@casandralungu]

I liked this a lot, Wendy, it's so powerful how you convey messages and deliver the clear key info. Have participated in many zooms and webinars during the lockdown, but still haven't joined a particular class/training. With your videos and podcasts I am discovering all the US market and its insights and I am loving it, so any time now I will make a pick and train online, so looking forward to learning and having thst feeling of starting from 0 ❤️ One small thing, Wendy, in the video you accidentally said Stanislavski was German instead of Russian 😘😊

[@wendyalane1]

My bad...yes, he is Russian. Glad you enjoyed it!

I’m looking to taking classes and don’t know how to find them or a person to do it with. Also is taking classes you are taking separate classes, say like I take a scene studies class then I also take a acting technique class. Or is that all in one class, as in one class that teaches you all those things. Sorry if this is a confusing question . Just trying to figure how this works.

Hi Wendy I got accepted onto an acting fundementals course and the Coaches are all working in the industry with 100 years experience between them. I feel like I made a good choice for my starting point in acting. Iv also recently bought two Meisner technique books what a coincidence. What do you think of EMAS Elizabth Mestniks Acting Studio?. It does Meisner Classes.

They are active kids vouchers and are about $200-$250. I will get a job when I am of age but how many online lessons should I try to take?
