“The Savvy Style intensive was a real life changer. I am VERY comfortable with my chosen brand and I no longer feel like I need to apologize for being who I am. I hope you can see what a wonderful, transformative opportunity you have offered with this class. You've created a positive, nurturing environment in which actors can examine their flaws and shortcomings, and then find help to fix them. What a gift!”— Kate Andres

 

“I thought I knew what my type was. I knew something wasn't right because I wasn't getting cast, or even getting very many call backs. I just chalked it up to something that was out of my control. Going through the Savvy Style intensive weekend I discovered an entire facet of myself that I had ignored, avoided and denied for a long time. I now understand that there was a major disconnect between what I was bringing into the audition room and what I projected. The weekend was an intense, emotional journey that helped me to see the part of me that is the most marketable and how to start selling it.”— Jeffrie Allan

“It was amazing to see the increase in confidence across the board from the beginning of the intensive to the end. I never realized how much what you wear can say about who you are as a person and as a performer. Once the style matched the essence and the brand, everyone seemed to be more comfortable and confident with their performance. It was also nice to get an idea of how I come across to others in an audition setting. Before this class, I wasn't really sure exactly what "brand" I was presenting, but now that I know, I feel that I can present a cohesive package.” — Ashley Adamek

“What do I wear? What should I sing? Should I even bother to go in for this audition? Why are they not calling me back? Before I took The Savvy Style intensive workshop these questions haunted me. I felt like my career was going nowhere and I was lost and miserable. It seems impossible but all that changed in just a weekend. The Savvy Style class was so empowering and completley what the doctor ordered. Designed by people in the biz for people in the biz, this class enabled me to really confront what was going on during my auditions, and helped me to refine them in a way that I know will make me more marketable. I feel like I have a firm grasp on where I fit into the industry now. I know how to present myself to make instant impressions that will work in my favor. I feel better about myself, more confident, more ready to go out there and show the people behind the table who I am and what I can do. Thanks so much this class was perfect!” — Brett Travis
