Master Your Acting Technique

I help actors at all levels thrive in the industry. With over a decade of experience, I combine acting techniques with mindset mastery to empower you. We'll tackle scripts, eradicate nerves, establish your acting business, and achieve ambitious goals, ensuring you own the room every time.

Want to become a better actor?

I help actors unlock their full potential by combining powerful acting techniques with mindset coaching that actually sticks. I don’t just teach you how to act, I teach you how feel free so that you can own the room.

With over a decade of experience teaching at some of the most respected drama schools in the North of England (Act Up North/IDSA/LMA) and as an Author of 'The Actors Guide to Success' - I know how to help you master your acting technique.

As an experienced ICF-certified coach, I know how to get your mindset performing at its best.

Because let’s be honest, you can be the most talented actor in the room, but if your mindset’s working against you, you won’t book the job.

I’ll help you build the confidence, focus, and resilience you need to walk into every audition like you already belong there.

Rejection Is As Common As The Cold.

But You Don’t Have To Catch The Symptoms Every Time

I know how gut-wrenching a rejection can be. How quickly you can trap yourself in your insecurities and doubt your acting capabilities. I have been there but rejection doesn't have to come at such a cost. High Intention Low Attachment!

If you want to reduce the horrible symptoms of rejection for good, get in touch.

I’ll show you how to build unshakeable acting skills and the inner confidence to back them up even when rejection knocks at your door.

If you’re ready to stop holding yourself back - let’s work!

A Few Words From My Incredible Clients

"Michaela has also helped me face parts of my past that I had been carrying with me and understand how those experiences can affect me as an actor and as a person. She has given me honest life advice, encouragement and perspective whenever I’ve needed it.

From an acting perspective, the difference has been huge. She has helped me develop my screen acting, self-tapes, audition technique, acting knowledge and confidence in front of the camera. She also helped me get onto Spotlight within a month, and within a few months I secured my first agent. Those milestones gave me a real sense that I was starting to build a professional career rather than simply dreaming about becoming an actor.

Her support has also opened doors to practical experience. Through her group chat and casting opportunities, I was able to perform my first theatre lead role in Manchester — something I will never forget — as well as getting involved in a student film and other opportunities that helped me build my credits and experience.

Gerson De Silva

“Michaela's passion for acting and dedication to her students is truly inspiring. Throughout my time at Act up North in Manchester, her expertise in acting theory, thorough script analysis and breakdown, and ability to translate these insights into captivating on-screen performances have been invaluable. Michaela's commitment to providing constructive feedback sets her apart from other tutors. Instead of merely offering praise, she provides valuable insights that encourage growth and improvement. Her warm personality and infectious laugh make learning a pleasure. I can confidently say that Michaela has played a significant role in shaping me as an actor. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a skilled and supportive mentor in their acting journey.”

Jay McMahon

"Michaela's 6-month program transformed my mindset, self-worth, and negative thought patterns. I've gained self-understanding, and the ability to stop the cycle of worry and fear of judgment. Reframing decades-old habits was challenging, but it's improved my self-confidence, relationships, and overall life. Understanding my past and developing self-acceptance has brought me immense relief and kindness towards myself. This program has profoundly impacted my day-to-day life."
