We'd Love For You To Join Our World
As a Spring Intensive student, you begin by learning how to listen deeply, respond truthfully, and express authentic emotional life under rich imaginary circumstances.
You will start to develop core acting skills rooted in the Meisner Technique, Sanford Meisner‘s traditional sequence of improvisational exercises and basic scene work.
Be more than just a “working actor”
When Terry Knickerbocker started acting, directing, and coaching over thirty years ago, he knew that he wanted to teach his students the ways of Sanford Meisner through a variety of acting, voice, and movement classes.
Over the years, Terry has helped coach and prepare actors for their career-defining roles in TV and film thanks to Meisner’s acting techniques. With our six-week-long Spring Intensive, you can learn from the best and receive the same coaching that helped launch the careers of Emmy Rossum, Sam Rockwell, Boyd Holbrook and more.
Our studio is conveniently located in the heart of Brooklyn and this spring acting program will send you on your way to acquiring you the career-advancing skills that the entertainment industry is looking for in today’s actors. Join the best acting program in N.Y.C. today!
