Professional Actors Studio Review

I audited a class at Nick Conti's Actor's Studio, and I really LOVED it!!! Very professional! I can't wait to start training there.

the free audit sealed the deal. i've been all over but scott oakley showed me how free actors must be to truly act. i am sold

The best way to learn is in a class that is fun, engaging, challenging, and forgiving. It s nice to begin the class hearing about opportunities other students are having as a result of the preparedness and professionalism because of the skill set they have learned here. And the fee for this service is extremely reasonable. Love this place.

Scott is an excellent instructor! I have been taking classes with him since last July and I absolutely love it. I have learned so much with him and made so much progress!

Nick Conti's Professional Actor's Studio is a great place to get classes in hands on acting experience and to get your foot in the door of the acting industry. I have been at the studio for a couple weeks and audited a class their and it's awesome. Mr. Nick Conti and Matt are super helpful, experienced, and genuinely friendly and honest people. The whole atmosphere of the studio is nice and professional. If you're looking to get started in acting or looking to continue to grow as an actor, this studio is the place to go.

I audited the class with Nick about 2 weeks ago then immediately got placed in Scott's class. I love their teaching styles! I feel the family atmosphere in their classes, and I can't wait to learn more!

This was my first time taking an acting class and it was so amazing. The instructor was down to earth and was very personable. The class was welcoming and they taught us a lot about ourselves and uplifted our spirit. They show you how to believe in your self. They give you a chance to act out a scenrio and critique it. I also feel like some therapy was thrown in there to help you get to know yourself and what you are trying to do! I loved it!! Thank you and the fact that it was free was even more amazing thank you! They let you ask as many questions as you want

Being new to the industry was a little overwhelming. After extensive research I came across Nick's studio. After sitting in on a class (for free) I feel this was a place with knowledge and safety. I could definitely grow here. On top of a variety of classes to choose from and different levels, they also showcase your work to top industry personnel. JACKPOT!!! They not only share their knowledge...they push you out of your comfort zone for growth. OUTSTANDING!!!! I immediately got work after working with these professionals. Scott Oakley was my Intermediate coach. Love you big guy. Now Nick will kick me around a bit to get me in even better shape. Lol. Try them. You won't be sorry.

The studio is so comforting and welcoming. Scott is a great coach!

I was a bit afraid of taking acting classes. I always wanted to do it but I was too shy and I always found excuses to not go. Finally, I decided that I was ready and called Nick Conti. He was very pleasant on the phone and he told me that I had nothing to worry about, that I could still persue an acting career if I devoted myself to it and had the discipline. He invited me to audit a class for free to see if that's what I wanted to do. So I did, and that same day I felt like I wanted to participate with the other students!! I was very excited. That same night I told Nick that I wanted to take that class and he put me on the wait list. The next week I was participating in the class.
I have been taking classes with Nick for a month already and I love it!! I think that's the only place that I look forward to go to every week. The students are nice and everybody respects each other.
Nick is a good teacher, you will notice that the same day that you go to audit the class. He is also a caring person that wants to see his students suceed.
Don't be late for his class though or you might not be able to get in. Most likely you won't. He takes his classes seriously and doesn't like anybody that interrupts it or disrespects his student's time. Even if you are new you will be participating in the class like any other student. I thought I was going to feel uncomfortable because I never acted on anything before, not even in school but in his class this doesn't matter, we are all the same.
I love my class, it's such a great atmostphere. We have fun while we work.

Nick s school is fantastic! I ve bounced around a couple places before finding my home here. Jeff and Nick provide a wealth of knowledge and genuinely care about their students and are passionate about their craft. Check it out!

The classes are exciting and make you want to improve your acting skills.

I lovvvvvvvvve this school!!!! I mean these guys are so educational for me to learn the business of acting! So hands on and inviting to the art of acting! If your looking to become a better or new actress here s the place to be!

Best Acting school I have attended hands down! I have never meet so many great teacher's that are so knowledgeable and passionate about acting!
Can't wait for the next Actors Bridge October 19th where we have a chance to meet top Agents and casting directors of Atlanta on site at the studio!

By far, you cannot push the envelope in creating or becoming the portrayer of emotions on stage unless your tool kit has great teachers. Thanks to Nick Conti s Studio for your level of dedication and professional guidance.

Great Coaches that genuinely care about their students!

My experience at the Professional Actor's Studio has been great. The instructors are professional and genuinely want to see their students succeed. Whether we are discussing the business side of acting or improving our skills I always leave class feeling inspired and prepared. I strongly recommend anyone interested in acting to come here and audit a class.

This will be my third month working with Brent and Lili in the teens class and I have absolutely loved it since day one! There is a huge sense of love and community during the classes that really allows you to see that everyone is there to help you succeed. I know that no matter what, I have the support of everyone behind me. I couldn't imagine a better place to come class every week.

This is an incredible acting studio as well helping you understand the craft of acting. I love it here

THE best. I honestly could not ask for a better teacher or class setting than what I have found in my Tuesday night beginners class. I feel I am getting every pennies worth in each class I attend. The teachers are smart, insightful and genuinely want to see you do your best. I am a VERY happy customer!

Best studio ever with the most amazing teachers!! Nick is super nice and direct. Scott and Jeff are helpful, they tell you exactly what is going on and you still can be yourself!! Thank you!

Great studio!! I audited a class and it was amazing!!! I felt like I was at a show!!! He produces great talent obviously!!!!

The Professional Actors Studio by Nick Conti is a five star studio. They give you the ability to train and sharpen your skills by learning the techniques of the disciples of Stanislavsky. Through working with Nick, my skill set, as well as my determination are being challenged and pushed for success. Nick and his fellow teachers are caring individuals who love acting and do a great job at creating a community at The Nick Conti Professional Actors Studio. ACES across the board.

I have been at Nick's acting studio for almost 7 months now. I had no acting background at all, an engineer by profession, at 27 years old. I went in, and the teachers at the studio really went far and beyond to help me learn the techniques and secrets behind giving truthful and honest performances. If you really want to get scrutinized, and learn, and grow into a better actor then this is the place. Do not walk in here thinking you will be hearing "Excellent Job" unless IT IS AN EXCELLENT JOB. Every weakness, every mistake, every inch that can be improved upon will be pointed out, and better WILL be demanded. Classes are fun and everyone you work with is friendly. There is no shortage of questions asked or the answers given by the teachers. Every teacher has his own style of teaching, and there are a lot of options. Scheduling is easy because Nick is very flexible and will try his best to get you in a time and class that fits you. You also get a free audit class to explore the waters. Acting turned out to be completely different than what i thought it was, but with the right people around you, everything is fun and nothing is impossible. Nick's acting studio is strict and professional, enough to keep you serious and focused, you need that if you want to make it as an actor. But there are perfectly timed light sessions between so that it is never too overwhelming. It is a perfect mix!

This is an amazing school!!! Nick Conti & all of the instructors truly care about their students & their careers. In my last class, Nick himself came to personally advise the students of how to further our acting careers without being taken advantage of & how to not over spend while investing in your career. I love the attention to detail that each teacher provides. Our livelihood matters to Nick Conti ... plus for just $110/month!!! I've personally never felt better about any career decision I've ever made!

Fantastic teachers and wonderful people. Couldn't ask for anything else.

Great school! Scott is a great teacher! Great atmosphere!

The classes are a supportive and welcoming environment to try new things and expand your acting ability. The instructors provide key advice and techniques to really enhance your creative work.

This acting studio is amazing and very affordable! Audit a class! See for yourself.

I am a student at this studio. I love the class that I m in. Nick is my teacher and I m learning so much. He pushes us to really learn the art of acting and pushes us out of our comfort zone to become better!

Great studio! Not only will you learn about the art of acting but about yourself. Highly recommended!

I recently enrolled in Nick Contis Pro Acting Studio with Instructor Scott who is amaaaazing! He's a very patient, honest, and passionate instructor with sinsere desire to see his students succeed. He's a ball of great energy and I'm elated to be working with him. Initially I audited instructor Angela's class and wanted to work with her however there was a wait list. Scott's class was the only class available at the time so I had no choice but to enroll with him. I feel it was Angel intervention that placed me with him. My acting skills have immediately improved. I look forward to continuing my education with Scott and the Nick Contis Pro Acting Studio!

I audited a class this previous Monday and had such a wonderful experience that I called the studio tonight to sign up. Although they have a lengthy waiting list Nick personally called me back on a Sunday! He worked with me to get me into a class! I look forward to attending I ve already had a wonderful experience.

We went to the improv due to a friends recommendation. It turned out to be an incredibly fun and entertaining evening. So many talented actors, many of whom were doing it for the first. We laughed non stop through the entire show. Nice job to the actors and to the studio, it was fantastic!

My advice:
Stop hesitating and searching, audit a free class, sign up, and open the door to new friends and hands on acting experience & coaching.
I made excuses for myself for a year! Time, work, money, etc.. before I jumped the gun and got involved in training. I wish I hadn t taken so long. Not only are the classes affordable, they re inspiring and fulfilling. Love this school and I highly recommend it!

Great teachers who are very passionate about what they teach and who really care about their students. I give high praise. =-)

I love this studio! I've been there for almost a year and I have learnt so much! Teachers are great, and the best part of it is that they are also professional working actors, so they are up to date with everything that's happening in the industry. Matt improv class is great and Angela does a lot of On Camera and Auditioning so they are both a great combination!

Love this studio! I take two classes a week, and there's noticeable improvement in my performance.

An Amazing class!!! Scott is an awesome teacher! You learn so much !!

Talk about worth it !!!! I ve been in this school for almost a year and I ve opened up and grew so much made great connections & it s only getting better ! Definitely worth it

I am truly having a great time! I have been professionally acting for over 20 years and I decided to take an acting class with Nick Conti' Professional Acting Studio as a way to keep my muscles exercised and I must say I appreciate the workout that I am getting. I take an Advance class and we are able to fully emerse ourselves in the work and be critiqued based upon how the industry will see us. We get an honest review from our peers as well as our instructor of our work in addition to learning more about the different techniques that can be used when diving into character work. I highly recommend this space whether you are a beginner or someone who has a little experience yet not quite to the point where you're booking regularly or an old hand at the business and you just need a good gym. It's been a great experience thus far!

Nick is a staple of the Atlanta film/theatre scene. A long roster of working Atlanta actors currently study or have studied at this studio. I can't say enough good things about Nick and his studio.

Studying at Professional Actor's Studio is an awesome experience. I have taken classes at other places but nothing compares to the expertise and dedication that Nick Conti, Scott Oakley and Brian Chapman (and others I have taken from) share. It just doesn't get any better than this! Love you guys!

Class is awesome. It s great being around others who have the same passion. The instructors are awesome too !

Great place to learn for starters or first time actors great atmosphere and very friendly and fun

After countless auditions that required Improv skills, I began taking Improv classes at the Professional Actor's studio with Matthew Cornwell. It's definitely one of the best things that I could have done for my acting career. Because Matt is a professional working actor himself, his class naturally feels like an improv class that's meant for the working actor. He's an excellent teacher. Very encouraging, and yet still challenges you to improve. I highly recommend.

I had the unique opportunity to attend one of the showcases held a few times a year. I cannot even put in words how helpful it was to ask ACTUAL casting directors, managers and agents questions about anything acting related. The industry pros gave detailed, definitive answers that leave no room for question.

I've worked with three teachers (my work schedule is tricky) and every one of them have been extremely knowledgeable in their crafts. They have different teach styles and focus, but there is continuity in their lessons. I am amazed how much I've grown as an acting professional in just a few months.

Pricing is relatively inexpensive but the level of training is superb. There are a lot of choices out there, but if you are SERIOUS about becoming a professional actor, this school is my first choice hands-down.

My first visit was AMAZING! I felt like I was at home! Everyone was so nice and super talented! The teacher, Matt Skollar was so great! He had me sold! This school is the best HANDS DOWN! I never want to leave class!

My acting career is moving in the right direction , since I ve been studying at the actors studio!

I have been studying at the studio for about 2 years. I love it! They care about your career and really take the time to train you intensely. I always feel prepared when auditioning and on set due to my training here. If you want to make acting your career this is definitely the place to be. Did I mention the owner nick is a hoot!

Nick Conti's studio is a great place tonstrech your acting muscles and develop your skills. The acting coaches push you to exceed your limits and provide feedback to help you book the job.

I cannot say enough about Brent Brooks, the acting coach for the Junior Acting Program at Nick Conti's Professional Actor's Studio. He is so wonderful with these kids! He genuinely cares about each of them and really wants to see them succeed. He encourages them not only to act, but to use all of their talents from writing to collaborating and sharing their ideas with the class. The kids really work well together and encourage each other. Our daughter has truly found a 2nd family!

A wonderful place to study and grow more knowledgeable with the business.

Sat in on one of Nick classes and was blown away. He took his time with every student, made sure they understood the scene, made tiny adjustments to their performances and the results were phenomenal. Very personable and great sense of humor. 5/5 recommend.

Class: improv ;one line from a movie with 2 people.

Have been here since August 2019. Excellent working actors that get the most out of their students. Definitely audit one of Jeff Cole s classes.

I've been taking improv classes at Pro Actor's Studio for over 6 months now and love Matt Cornwell's class. It has truly helped me have more freedom in my acting & hosting. Pro Actor's Studio is a great resource for actors (beginners & advanced) who want to take their craft to the next level.

After doing all my research for which classes to take for being new to acting I found Nicks studio , highly recommended and very professional. After my first class i knew it would teach me what i needed to know to be all i can be in this industry.

Just moved to the city and needed a studio to brush up on my technique. It's been my second month and I'm having a great time with the studio and the people who work there!

I must say that I was thoroughly impressed by this past Saturday auditing class. I learned so much in a short period of time especially with this being my first introduction to the industry. It's a blessing to be able to work with all of these different professionals who are currently working in the industry. That will only help us as the students to be in the know about an industry that changes so much. When I left that class I immediately starting dreaming again. I've been thinking about that class every since I left on Saturday. I will start my classes this Saturday coming up. I"m super excited and can't wait to get started!!!!!

Absolutely love these classes!! Great people. Great environment.

I've been in the class for beginning actors with Nick for a couple months now and already, I've seen some significant growth as an actor and have booked more parts than before I started with the studio. Nick is a great teacher and my peers in the class are fun to watch and are supportive themselves. I highly recommend auditing one of the classes and see if it's right for you.

One of the top coaches in the market! I highly reccomend Nick to anyone who has an interest in acting.

Been a student for two years and every week I learn some essential knowledge. Great community of teachers and students. The Showcase is possibly the best place in town to be seen by casting agent folk.

I absolutely love this acting studio! I take Improv with Jason Stackhouse and Acting with Angela Davis! They teach you above and beyond!

Great experience with very grounded instructors. Learn various types of disciplines and genres. Fully recommend this studio.

I've been attending NCPAS for 2 months now and it has been great experience for me. I first audited with Angela and enjoyed just sitting in watching, from that experience alone I was hooked. Really wanted to participate, that day they were playing improv games that looked amazing. Eventually I was able enroll in a class under Scott and have learned so much about the industry, techniques, and more about myself. Since joining the class I soon begun submitting for roles and just recently booked 2 projects with one paying! I don't believe I would of been able to with out the aid of NCPAS and Scott. Thank you

This is an excellent school with top notch teachers and training. If you're serious about beginning an acting career, let professional actors studio help you train for your acting career.

I m in Angela s class and she s a great teacher with a lot of knowledge about the industry and she takes you out of your comfort zone.

As a young aspirating actor, I was quite daunted when I first enrolled in the Professional Actor s Studio. They made it fun, loose, and instructive so I was able to get comfortable in my own abilities. I have truly found a home in this studio and cannot promote it enough to learning actors at all levels.

Nick Conti Actors Studio is definitely the entertainment industry s best kept secret. Highly professional coach - and he motivates you - the actor/actress to do your best no matter what. His idea of instinctive acting is what all actors want to master. Thank you Coach Nick!

This acting studio is top notch! The old adage that you get out what you put in is never more present than at this studio. You will learn much as long you are willing to put in the work. The instructors are industry professionals who bring a lot of knowledge and experience to the classroom and the price is better than you will find anywhere else. Not to mention, your classmates are extremely supportive and you will feel like family in no time. You will not be disappointed in choosing Nick Conti's Professional Actor's Studio.

I love the acting class that I am in . My teacher name is Matt skollar . I m in his beginners class . The way he teaches is absolutely phenomenal . Definitely should do an audit for his class . You ll love it !

If you want to be bad at acting then.....you know don't jump on the bandwagon here, because these instructors are mega professionals and refuse to let you be bad....so yeah...five stars from Mr. Rock N Roll!! I love it here!!

I thoroughly enjoy the classes at Professional Actors' Studio. There is great camaraderie and much laughter, yet serious discussions about the business side of acting, as well as learning techniques and methods to improve each participant's skills. The instructors are highly professional and committed to helping each student achieve their professional goals. I strongly recommend anyone interested in improving their acting skills -- novice or experienced -- audit a class to experience a truly dynamic learning experience.

I have been a student in Nick's beginner class for 6 months and have enjoyed each week. He is very passionate about the craft and wants to push his students to their greatest potential. I have gained more knowledge and confidence being in his class.

I started taking acting classes here about two months ago, and I absolutely love it here. This is the first place I chose to audit at, and right off the back I signed up. Angela is a great instructor, she just pushes you and helps you. She actually cares, and it shows in so many ways.& Nick comes into our classes sometimes to speak with us just to show his face and be friendly. I would recommend this place to anybody, honestly. They care about every single one of the actors here.

I've been taking classes here for about a year now. I feel like I've grown so much, not only as a performer, but as a person. I have to give props to the all of the awesome teachers for pushing me to my limits and encouraging me to go farther with my work.
If you're looking at classes, any of the teachers would be a GREAT option, but Matt Skollar's a true rockstar. He takes the time to learn each of his students' strengths and needs to help them reach their goals and really gives an individual education to each person that takes his class.
So happy I found a studio to call home!

Nick may be one the most charismatic teachers I have met in a while. I can say without a doubt, that he truly cares about his students and teaching them what is expected at the next level. His energy, dedication and expertise easily set him apart from the rest. I m in a class co-taught by Angela Davis and Nick. I haven t been around her for long, but it is clear how powerful of an asset she is to the studio. Angela has an extensive resume and KNOWS HER STUFF! It is obvious how committed she is to ensuring her students are prepared for the audition room and other opportunities to come. We all know this industry is not for the faint-hearted, so above all, my favorite thing about studying here is the HONESTY. It is so important to have teachers that push you and bring attention to bad habits. It is apart of the process and crucial if you want grow. At the Professional Actor s Studio it is always about the art. No ego, no entitlement, no nonsense just art. Gotta love it!

I absolutely love this school! The teachers are so professional and they make learning so much fun! It's truly like a family when you are there. Also, The classes are highly informative and very cost efficient. I highly recommend choosing Nick Conti's Professional Actors Studio!!

Amazing studio with great teachers who really help you on your path to being a professional actor. Jeff Cole is the best

I ve learned so much since joining the Professional Actors Studio! I encourage anyone thinking about getting into acting to check out this school! Did I mention you get a free audit!!

I ve been enrolled for a while now and I can honestly say the instructions here really try and make you the best you can be

Nick is unbelievable!!!! This acting studio has taught me a lot and helped me shape the craft ive known and loved for a long time. I recommend this studio to everyone who has the desire to step outside of their confort zone and learn different ways to expand their abilities of being an actor. Nick and and all of the teachers at this studio are very professional and will 100% help you reach your true potential. Best decision I ve made in a long time!!!! Thank you Nick!

Study with one of the best acting coaches out there. Nick Conte enables you to reach your fullest potential as an actor. Cares about his students and takes pride in their accomplishments. His studio is the real deal in the South. If you become one of his students you will be enabling yourself to be ready for any audition or role.

This has been a home away from home for the past 2.5 years. Getting started in the industry was a bit of a whirlwind but I landed at Nick's studio and things took off pretty quickly. I have learned so much and have met the greatest people. It's truly like a family and I am honored to have been a part of that family. I have been lucky enough to have Nick Conti and Scott Oakley as instructors. Great men, great friends, great actors, and even bigger hearts!

If you are looking for a place to explore the art of acting, Nick Conti brings knowledge and professionalism to the classroom creating a safe supportive environment to challenge yourself in order to stretch and grow.

I have been a student here since October of last year and the things I have learned have proven to be invaluable. Angela Davis is a great instructor, and Nick and Franco. I love the energy of being around other actors and everyone in the studio is very supportive. I am happy to be a part of something so magical.

Great class i am learning alot Nick is awesome n his teachers

Nick Conti Studio is a great place to learn and Grow.
I'm in Scott class and Scott is the acting coach and he is amazing. Come audit and join :)

First and foremost I want to say if you are pursuing a career in acting and is currently researching the right studio, well look no further. Nick and his team of professionals are phenomenal. I am currently in the Saturday morning class under instructor Scott Oakley who has been Awesome from the very start. I can go on and on and on as to how Great Nick acting studio is, but I'll let you be the judge for yourself. I guarantee you will be completely thrilled and will be giving some of the same positive feedback or more that I am giving.

I just started taking classes at this studio, and so far it's been a great experience! The actors are very welcoming and kind. Also, Nick Conti is such a great instructor. He's very experienced and knows what he's talking about. I love the environment and plan to continue going there for a long while!
