Testimonials

Here's a sneak peak. More in the Testimonials section!
Holly and Yago are a true inspiration. Their passion and dedication created a world of beauty and enthusiasm. A place that was able to hug performers from different countries all around the world, and bring all of these artists together in such a genuine and stimulating way. I want to thank them with all my heart. 

Jacob Marshfield, Actor's North Participant

I came in to 2023 with no real goals or drive for my acting career. But Actor's North gave me a direction, a purpose, and sparked my creativity. From being shown how to effectively schedule our time to focus on our goals, to delving into the world of voiceover, scene writing, singing on camera, and so much more. That's not even including the community of support that was built for everyone who takes part. Holly and Yago have the unique skills to pull the best out of you, and show you your true north.

 I wanted to thank Holly and Yago for sharing their personal stories, skills and knowledge, giving us feedback and advice, for being there every single day, cheering us on, and making us the community we are now. I learned so much, it got my creativity going, I enjoyed all the challenges, and they pushed us all out of our comfort zones. And the value for money is just too good, with the time they are spending and the value we get from it, they could charge a lot more.

Aurore Padenou, Actor's North Participant

Actor's North is a fast-track course to being an actor today. Fun, detailed and filled with kindness. 
These are both true for the course and for Holly and Yago, I've never known anybody more supportive than them.
I wish I had found Actors North when I was starting out. It would have made my life so much easier!
Also, this program is great as a pick me up. If you are feeling like you could use a reminder of why you love acting so much, this is it.
