My Acting Studio

The classes themselves were great! I took intro to acting, imrpov 1, and had one on one coaching. They've helped me set up my profile, head shots and my demo reel. The services they can provide are instrumental to any new actor, but what truly makes this place special is the people you'll find. People truly passionate for storytelling and the art/practice of acting. There are few places that can provide such experiences for such a good price as well.

Great place to hone in your skills as an actor at any level you’re on. Charles Tentendo makes you comfortable being behind the camera. All his teaching staff are top nosh. If you’re looking for a place to expand and stretch your abilities, this is the place. Headshots, Demo Reels, Comedy, Improv, he has it all.
I highly recommend My Acting Studios in Long Beach.

I've just finished my 4-week session class; it's the first acting course I've ever attended outside of my comfort zone (which is El Camino college). And I'm pretty pleased with the experience! The instructor, Genevieve, she's delightful and supportive! Her energy and encouragement to us all was so positive, she even helps us improve our chosen monologues. The environment has been safe and motivating for us all to create and become better in our acting ranges.

I definitely recommend this place! And I'm considering going back in the future when I'm financially ready.

Improv Levels 1 and 2 have been a total blast. The teachers, Kelsi and Daniel, are both super engaging and encouraging. The environment is supportive and energizing. Charles is also really personable and offers a variety of services and class types for anyone who is interested in taking to performance.

My Acting Studio is a great place to explore your interest in acting, or hone your skills as an advanced performer. Charles is a great teacher, and all instructors are seasoned professionals providing exceptional learning experiences. If you are considering a career in acting, or interested in trying something fun and challenging, definitely check this place out. You can even sit in on classes to see Charles and his team work their magic. You will not be disappointed!

Charles creates a great learning environment for all actors, whether you’re new or experienced, you will always feel welcomed in his studio. I am new to the acting business, and I was very skeptical about taking an acting class at first, but Charles made me feel very welcomed from the first day I walked in the door. I highly recommend taking one of his classes you will not regret it.

Greatly enjoyed the foundation level 1 class! Charles has a way of offering constructive feedback that makes you feel seen and valued rather than criticized. His notes always seem to be exactly what is needed to take a scene from watchable to powerful. I had a wonderful time learning from him and working with the other students. The environment at the theatre always feels comfortable and inclusive!
