Lastest Testimonials:
"Joshua is a very talented and knowledgeable voice acting coach. I highly recommend his workshops. They are very informative, thorough, and most entertaining. Joshua creates a learning environment that is relaxed and comfortable. I wouldn't hesitate to attend another workshop or to encourage anyone else to do so; Joshua knows his stuff and knows how to teach it." Melanie Smith
"I so enjoyed the workshop & totally open to this creative expression. Truly loved it! Joshua, thank you so much for the fun, inspiring & creative experience. You’re an amazing teacher. Compassionate, wise + encouraging. I will NEVER listen to voice the same way!! And commit to working with voice as my own true instrument." Voice Artist Cathy Saunders
"Joshua is very generous with his time, knowledge, and experiences. If you're on the fence about attending a workshop, just sign up! I'm so glad I did. It was a great experience!" Voice Artist Katie Harrington
"Joshua's teachings are a brilliantly deep and insightful exploration into acting technique and methods. His classes also contain a wealth of practical and important information about the film and television industry. He really knows what he's talking about, and can help you obtain the skills and knowledge to take your acting to the next level. Highly recommended." Actor Alex Wrathell
"I attended the class not knowing anyone there or what to expect. It was a great class, I learnt so much by way of technique and information and I have to say the scripts given to me - at first glance I thought "no way" but by the end of it I WAS the character on the page and I 'felt' them. The filming of our work was also great and watching them back I can still feel the emotions - I can hardly believe it's me doing them! In summary I cannot recommend Joshua's classes enough - you will learn so much and come away with so much confidence! Thank you and can't wait to sign up for the next one!" Actor Amanda Willmore
"If you ever get the chance to take a class from Joshua, do it! His knowledge and experience in so many areas of acting are amazing and the support he offers is first-rate. In each class, every participant gets individual coaching and feedback, and the individualized help continues after the training session ends, as Joshua gladly answers questions, gives feedback on self-tapes, and recommends next steps to advance your career. One week after taking Joshua's voice acting class, I used his techniques and submitted a tape for an audition. And I got my first paid voice acting gig! Thanks, Joshua, for all of your help and support as I learn from you how to be a great actor!" Actor / Voice Actor Elaine Melanson
"I took Joshua's voice acting workshop and enjoyed every moment of it. He is a great, great teacher who delivered a nice, even combination of education and actual hands-on experience. By the end of the workshop, I had learned techniques that will stay with me permanently and I can incorporate easily into my life. I will be attending more of his workshops and classes, to be sure." Actor - Jeff White
"I definitely recommend the voice acting workshop that Joshua led. Not only was it fun and engaging, I also learned how to strengthen my weak spots, and got a hang of how the basics of the business works, which is something I never picked up anywhere else. It was a great time for sure!"
Voice Actor - Randy Zwicker
"I recently completed the Voice Acting and On Camera Workshops and can highly recommend both for the wealth of insight I received into the world of acting as well as myself as an actor. The time and personalization Joshua invests in his students is exceptional and I will always appreciate him as a teacher." Voice Artist / Actor - Allyson Leigh
