Acting Classes in Tokyo – Frequently Asked Questions

These classes are open to a wide range of actors—from complete beginners to experienced performers.

Some programs are designed to build strong foundations, while others are more advanced and require prior training.

If you’re unsure which class is right for you, feel free to get in touch—I’ll be happy to guide you.

Not at all.

While many students are actors, the training is also valuable for people outside the industry. I regularly work with professionals—such as business people, entrepreneurs, or speakers—who want to develop confidence, presence, and communication skills.

The work on voice, physicality, and emotional connection can be highly beneficial in situations like public speaking, presentations, or leadership roles.

Whether your goal is artistic or professional, the training adapts to support your development.

No, not necessarily.

Some classes (like the Introduction to the Meisner Technique) are specifically designed for beginners. Others, such as Advanced Training, require previous experience or completion of certain workshops.

If you’re unsure about your level, just reach out and I’ll help you find the right fit.

The Meisner Technique is an approach to acting that focuses on truthful behavior, deep listening, and responding instinctively in the moment.

Rather than “performing” or trying to control your acting, you learn to connect with your partner and react honestly, moment to moment.

It’s a powerful way to develop presence, emotional availability, and authenticity both on stage and on camera.

Yes—absolutely.

You don’t need to be fluent in English, but you should be able to understand basic instructions and communicate at a simple level.

Many students are not fluent when they start. The classes are designed so you can gradually build confidence in English while focusing on acting.

What matters most is your willingness to engage and communicate—not perfect language skills.

You’re also welcome to contact me in Japanese if that feels more comfortable—I’ll reply in Japanese.

As a French coach working in English, I understand the challenges of working in a second language—so no judgment here 🙂

It depends on the program.

Most classes run once a week, with sessions lasting between 2.5 to 3 hours.
Programs typically span several weeks (for example, 10 to 15 sessions depending on the course).

It’s always best to attend consistently, as the training builds progressively.

If you know in advance that you’ll miss a session, let me know—depending on the class, we can sometimes adjust or provide guidance so you can stay on track.
