Class Overview

      Our classes aim to develop your acting talent to its fullest potential, enabling you to meet the challenges of auditions and acting jobs. Students have also found that through the study of acting they have strengthened their public speaking, presentation, and communication skills. As a student you will engage in exercises and scenes during which we will analyze your strengths and weaknesses checking every aspect of your acting technique to make sure you are exploring the whole realm of your emotions as an actor.

      Every student is treated as an individual, each with their own unique qualities and talents. Exercises and work will be aimed at your specific needs. You will benefit from Mr. Hong's 51 years in motion pictures and over 450 roles. Everything he has done in his acting career, he will impart onto you. See the Filmography page to see some of the acting he has done.
