AZAA Acting Technique Registration

Welcome to Acting Technique! This class is our premiere on-going program that meets you at your level. If you are moving up from our Foundations course, congratulations! If you're new to AZAA but with previous experience and/or training, you've found a home to reconnect with your passion and improve your skills.

Schedule a Class Audit to see which of our two AT offerings best fits you and your goals. The $25.00 fee is non-refundable but changeable and will be applied as a credit to your first month's tuition if you enroll. Please let us know if you can’t make it for any reason to reschedule. Auditing spots are limited. Fee is waived for current students moving up from Foundations by using your student resources to schedule.

New Student for any new full enrollment, auditors now choosing to join the course should also select “New Student”.

Re-Enroll for students who took a temporary withdrawal from this class and are re-enrolling.

Auditors choosing to enroll in classes will enroll as a NEW STUDENT.
Class is for adults, 18 and over.
Most of our communications are through email, please give us your best contact.
This audit is observation only. You may be invited to warm-up with the class and then asked to observe the exercises and working actors. Auditing an advanced class would be useful if you wish to pursue approval into a class or wish to see growth potential from our program.
If the date you want is unavailable to select, the class is full, please move onto the next available date.

Ongoing Classes at AZAA

If you can't answer yes, please email jacque@azactorsacademy.com to confirm availability for your class interest, before registering. Student who completed six of the eight Acting Foundations classes are approved to move onto Acting Technique.

If you select next month, we will enroll you to start at full tuition when the monthly enrollment resets, this can vary depending on class breaks or holidays. This is also subject to availability and could lead to our wait list.
