About Us

Our dynamic Auckland based acting classes are not just for people with a desire to act. They are also an awesome way to build both personal and work confidence.  My passion is teaching and enabling people to become more empowered; whether it be in acting or socially. What makes an actor interesting to watch and more natural in front of the camera or how do you create tension on screen? These are some of the areas explored in the Screen Classes.  If you want to audition for, or work in film and TV,  we will teach you the vital skill base. Courses are a stress free way to learn how to take presentation skills to a higher level and gain that necessary edge to stand out from the competition! Improvisation classes are a fun way to learn how to take risks and think faster on your feet. I have found that students self esteem flourishes as a result of what they learn in the classes.  My belief is that positive and constructive feedback is a very powerful teaching tool. Even the shyest students gain tremendous confidence through attending the classes.  Sioux Manning – Artistic Director CED (Actor/Teacher/Director)
