Veteran actor and master teacher John D’Aquino (SWAT, Cory in the House, Shake it Up, CSI, Hannah Montana, Seinfeld) starred in six TV series and recurred and guest starred on dozens of other popular shows. His love for performing is surpassed only by his love for teaching, a love inspired by his mentor, teacher and friend, Charles Nelson Riley, who instilled in his students a passion for helping actors create dynamic performances by reaching deep into the human spirit. John and his team teach weekly classes, workshops, camps, private coaching, and industry consultations. From Nickelodeon and Disney stars, guest stars to principal actors in major studio films, network television series and even leads in Broadway musicals, John and his staff have trained them all. A generation of young actors in Hollywood and throughout the US has passed through our studio, and we’re proud of each and every one of their accomplishments, whether as an acting professional or wherever they chose to use their unique talents. We have developed a curriculum designed with the working actor in mind, covering topics for beginners, all the way to set etiquette and working with the different trades’ crew members and producers they will meet on set. Our program is designed for success, and prepares young actors not only to get the job, but keep it and build on it for the next one after that.
