Brad Heller is not only the kindest but most knowledgeable acting teacher I’ve ever had the privilege of encountering. He pushes you to be the best you can be and NOTHING LESS. He tells you the truth about your performance because he truly cares and KNOWS you can do better! He’s a teacher you will want for LIFE. He’s that GREAT.

I started training with Brad Heller, the founder of The Heller Approach Acting Studio, around a year ago. I had no prior acting experience before training with Brad but that was not an issue. Brad goes in depth as to why his method differs from other methods and why it is better and also more enjoyable to do. Acting is such a complicated thing to do but while working with Brad he makes it seem so simple yet incredibly affective. He really teaches you how to be truly in the scene and really get the mindset of the character. Brad preaches acting is a two step process of preparation and execution. If you do the preparation correctly and put in the work the execution is almost effortless and way more fun and enjoyable to do. Brad not only helps with ones acting skills but he also introduces you to the business and teaches you how to do auditions and break into the acting business with a step by step plan. If you do choose to work with Brad or anyone from The Heller Approach Acting Studio you will be given a book on acting and the Heller Approach technique. I can not stress enough how great and informative this book is when it comes to acting. Overall, I could not be happier with my experience working with Brad Heller and The Heller Approach Acting Studio.

When I moved to LA last winter, I was excited but nervous to really begin my career in acting. However, after meeting Brad Heller, founder of The Heller Approach, many of my worries were at ease. Not only does Brad make his classes a safe and encouraging environment, but he also teaches in a way that inspires you to continue working hard and learning as much as possible. The Heller Approach has definitely improved my acting skills immensely and I can see a huge difference in my acting now as opposed to a year ago. Not only does Brad help with acting technique and preparation, but he also offers incite and advice on the business as well as auditions, which is a crucial part of an actors success. I really cannot stress enough how amazing these classes are, part because of the technique, another part is because of the other students that are so welcoming, but a huge part of this is because of Brad himself. Knowing you have someone in the business that is as helpful and excited for your own journey as Brad is, really lets you feel safe in an industry that does not always make you feel like that. I am excited to continue working with Brad in the next few months and continuing my journey in acting, and I encourage anyone else who wants a real raw technique and great support to try out The Heller Approach. It really has been a great honor not only to work with Brad, but meeting him and having him in my life. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with him and the school!
