Eleni Yiovas: U-Shin's class and techniques rocks! His knowledge and experience as an agent is invaluable, but the exercises he instructs the class to do makes it a meaningful experience with new insights you will not forget after a month. His class is a game changer.
Janelle Sexton: Audition Arts is calisthenics for the actor. The class demystifies the process by giving you a plan of action for each time you step into "the room where it happens/" You learn how to be a better pitch person for your career. Understand what's needed in your work for co-star vs guest star vs series regular. It was hard work, but I'm a better actor for it.
Shea Kelly: Audition Arts gave me practical tools that I can use in every audition. I have a deeper understanding of myself as an actor in the industry and feel and exponential increase in my confidence going into auditions. I wholeheartedly recommend this class to trained actors who want to discover how to bring more of their craft into the audition room.
Julia Boyes: Absolutely extraordinary/ Not only have I gained a stronger audition technique, but I've gained CONFIDENCE. I feel prepared to walk into any room and bring my best. The teaching and community of Audition Arts is a game changer. If you want to grow in your skill set and become a confident actor who can "book the room," RUN, don't walk, to Audition Arts.
Christian Paxton: If you're looking for honest but wholly supportive industry feedback, do yourself a favor and take Audition Arts. One has the freedom to fail in a supportive space, while also receiving feedback to help you really grow. Could not recommend more!
Anne-Maria Agbodji: Honestly one of the best acting classes that I've taken. Practical and focused evaluations, with an in-depth assessment of the process as an actor. I walked away with so many gems that are now a part of my toolbox. U-Shin's energy also makes the class fun and engaging, which is a real bonus. Definitely recommend.
Selina Fonseca: A really practical and informative experience. The positive energy promoted in these sessions alone are enough of a reason to sign up...What you learn will definitely help you in the auditions. Fun, positive, and realistic advice for auditionings.

Words can’t express what I value about my experience with Audition Arts. The solid skills developed through U-Shin’s teachings have me preparing for every audition, large and small, with surety and confidence, opening up scenes so that I consistently approach them with artistry, creativity, and exploration. The relationships and community developed within Audition Arts, not only support the work, but have created lasting friendships, both professional and personal. I am eternally grateful.

Precious Dyson: Audition Arts is a place where the actor can be in a safe environment while learning new techniques and skill to add to their belt. My method in preparation for roles has improved 100% since taking Audition Arts.
Ben Kaufman: The class fostered an immediate sense of community of similarly focused artists who are immediately available to me. The experience
Ryan Perez: U-Shin and the structure of this class has tremendously helped my approach and my preparation for an audition of any caliber. I truly don't know where I'd be without the information he helped us understand from the other side of the table.
Carla Briscoe: I learned more practical and applicable prep work for on camera auditions during the 3 classes I had with U-Shin that all the other workshops and classes I've taken over the last 7 years.
Stephanie Hitchcock: U-Shin loves actors, has a ton of energy, spirit, and good will that he infuses into his classes-- He lets you know exactly what you have to do to succeed in this business...he makes it clear that it is a business and that we must treat it as such, and organize ourselves to make it our priority!
Anthony Goss: One of a kind acting experience catered specifically towards audition techniques and your "method." Most teaching overlooks the process and approach to auditions, focusing instead on the 'craft;' Audition Arts makes auditioning a craft and an enjoyable part of acting. It prepares you for the room from getting your sides to walking out the door.
Amanda Centeno: Audition Arts classes are such a great resource. They strengthen your audition muscles, while giving you the tools to take ownership of your process and your choices. He equips his students with the business side of things in an experiential way; this is a class where you will work, work, work. If you are looking to take your career to the next level, this class will definitely help you get there.
Edwin Brown III: The best class I have ever taken in the city. Pinned a recurring role right after.
Miguel Fana: Really good value of a class, very informative and supportive class structure. I liked how open U-Shin was in sharing his experiences and giving honest feedback. I also liked the sense of community that was encouraged that opens up the possibility of the work continuing outside of class.
Honestly at first I hated this class. It pushed me so far out of my comfort zone, and held me accountable for things that I usually made excuses for. But this class changed my life. It helped me find reps who were passionate about my work, and helped me show casting why they should be passionate about my work. I booked the 3rd network audition I did (off a tape!) and I truly owe it to this class.
