Specialty Classes

Terry Knickerbocker Studio is proud to offer a wide variety of elective, individual training classes for actors. These classes are open to those who are new to our studio, to current conservatory students, and to alumni of other TK Studio classes and programming. Performing artists of all skill levels and backgrounds can expect to expand their “actor’s toolbox” with these classes, whether experiencing a new tool for the first time, or digging deeper with a tool they’ve used before.
These classes are offered a la carte, and can be taken by any student with any experience level, unless a prerequisite is otherwise noted. We encourage those on the fence about our Conservatory programs to consider taking one of these classes to get a feel for TK Studio and our unique approach to training well-rounded actors and artists.
