“I came into the program not knowing what to expect…it made me feel more confident in acting and be more comfortable being out of my comfort zone.”

I met Terry through a friend of mine and it has been the best decision I’ve ever made to attend his Two-Year Conservatory. Not only is this class opening up doors for me that I didn’t know were closed, but I’ve never experienced an acting class that provides the building blocks necessary to begin an extraordinary acting career.

Upon walking in and seeing TK Studio for the first time, I realized how serious Terry Knickerbocker is about building an environment conducive to learning. Every inch of the space leads one closer to the reason we are all there; the work.

TK Studios is a bit off the grid in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, which for me allows more focus on the work and the craft than being in a studio in the busy city full of other acting studios that feel like desperation and competition.

Kana is a great teacher because she really challenges us to move outside of our comfort zones. She also takes the time to really listen to each individual and always has feedback tailored to each person.

Matthew is one of the best teachers I’ve ever had in my life – in any curriculum. He’s just a wonderful guy. He’s a walking, living genius.

Nate demands excellence, which is a very good thing, but it can be very scary because we are being asked to step out of our comfort zones and explore that discomfort within the context of movement.

Julia is an incredible artist and teacher. Her depth of knowledge is inspiring. Her openness and generosity with this knowledge is profound — She cultivates a safe, judgment-free space where students are able to learn and fail and grow through experience and with total support.

Being in Clown class was a transformative experience. Justin created a space in which we felt free to express ourselves with love for ourselves and each other, without judgement or fear of failure or messing up.

Because Terry is taking actors to new heights each and every class, I find myself learning more and more than I ever thought I could from my classmates. Watching my mates rise up creates an inspiration.

I undoubtedly learned how to be a better mover with Nate, but what was so valuable about working with him was being able to witness a leader and an artist at work. Nate is a master of his craft, yet humble and willing to admit when something is not working.
