Henry

“Just a note on Mark, who is truly a great teacher. I loved learning from him. He was so open and was able to deliver the content in such a way that it was both exciting and easy to wrap my head around. With his guidance I was able to tap into a calling I’d had for years and discover presence and confidence within. Mark’s energy is grounding and most importantly, nurturing. He shares so much experience with his students. He helped me with the basics of acting - being embodied and truthful - as well as digging deep into scripts and discovering treasures inside. Mark helped grow a feeling for the craft into a passion. I am so excited to continue the journey because of how it all started.”
