Helen Afshan Acting Studio

sses are first and foremost focused on improvisation. The heart of acting is improvisation and the ability to use your imagination and listening abilities to transform what is on the page. In my class, you’ll move through exercises which will improve your overall artistic ability, acting skills as well as your own personal charisma and poise. The improve oriented techniques will strengthen your ability as an actor to focus, concentrate, react, listen, and watch, and ultimately help you feel confident walking onto any stage or room as an actor. I also teach one on one classes specifically focused on auditioning in front of a camera. MY STORY:

I was born in Tehran, Iran and have been an actress on stage and film from a very young age. I attended the University of Tehran as part of their highly acclaimed Theatre Arts program, and that was where I got my start as both an acting teacher as well as a student. To this day I continue to work regularly as an actress, but my main goal and focus has shifted to helping others learn the lessons and techniques I have picked from over 40+ years as a character actress.
