Acting Workshops

I’ve attended Myles’s workshops and can’t recommend them highly enough! I've learnt new skills as well as building on current skills, including relaxation techniques for stressful environments, effective communication and listening all while being immersed in the incredible world of acting. Myles creates such a great atmosphere where you feel supported but also challenged to grow. His teaching is engaging and full of insights, always pushing you to do your best. I would recommend Myles’s workshops to anyone!

Myles has an incredible ability to put people at ease, and coax them out of their shells. I have had the pleasure of working with him multiple times and he never fails to impress. The first time I met him I was nervous and unsure about my chosen path, but he made me feel comfortable, and excited about the future. I can confidently recommend any course/workshop Myles is offering.

My name is Josefine. I'm from Norway, and I felt so lucky when Covid opened up for online classes with Myles Pollard.  I learned so much from his classes. And even though the classes were online it felt collaborative both in the one to one classes and in the group classes. I really really recommend investing in this, you will definitely see things you might know in a different way and understand much more about the process and the craft. Also you will get receive feedback with your classmates and that helps so much.

Myles has been one of my favourite acting coaches I have worked with over the years. I first worked with him in a 10 week course and then private sessions following that. He really helped me deal with nerves and simple techniques to have multiple tools on set so I could troubleshoot as needed. One of the many helpful coaching cues he gave me was to simply ‘put all of your focus onto the other actor in the scene’. It sounds simple, but I use that in every moment I perform, if I ever begin to get that nervous twitch in my neck, I simply breath and then just focus on the fellow performer in the scene. I highly recommend anyone at any stage of their careers can learn a lot from him. Thanks mate. 

Myles has been an instrumental pillar and mentor along my creative journey, and I can’t put to words how inspired I’ve felt every time I’ve worked with him. His passion and love for the craft is so contagious; and as a teacher, the faith he instills in every student brings out such truth and vulnerability. Myles’ intensive and masterclass workshops are truly transformative, and he has such a unique gift for firing up the spark in every actor he works with. I feel so fortunate to have had him as a private coach as well - his talent in both acting and directing has helped me immensely in emotional discovery, and empowered me in ways beyond anything I originally thought possible. Above all, he is an all-round genuine legend, and is extremely humble and enthusiastic in everything he does…and every life he comes into contact with.
