Andrew Selke

Run. Don't walk. I was part of the core class and I can say in no uncertain terms that my life, and approach to performing, has been changed for the better because of this class. I am equipped with tools I was not able to harness before that provide so much more agency in performing and approaching music making. 

Emma Metzger

I’ve completed two rounds of the twelve-week course and earned my Level One MiM Teacher Certification, and I truly can’t speak highly enough about how much Jillian, Adam, and Meisner in Music have transformed my acting and my life! In auditions I feel more confident, authentic, and empowered than ever before.

This is one of the only classes of its kind in the city and has had a profound impact on my career and my life. The semester-long program is a deep dive into Meisner technique and the many ways it can be applied to vocal performance. I saw incredible growth both in myself and my fellow classmates over the semester.
