Most actors don't struggle with talent.
They get caught in their heads trying to get it right.
This is a room for getting out of your own way. Online, from wherever you are.
Every week we go live. You bring something, put it up, get seen and get feedback from me and from the room. You learn as much from watching as you do from taking your own turn.
You also get the full class library. Six years of the work, filmed and waiting.
Actors are welcome. Actors are not required. If you want to express yourself more honestly, become more present and take creative risks, you're welcome here.
If you can't get to Byron, or the class nights don't fit your life, this is the way in.

I Worked with Tim for 2.5 years very closely. Tim brings a joy and sense of play to acting, which in my humble opinion is extremely important. After all, we are just playing, and you need to have fun whilst you navigate the highs and lows of the acting grind. His natural instinct and sense of calm while working has helped me immensely to loosen up and truly attempt to be in the moment, whether it’s on set or the countless self-tapes we have done together. Apart from his clear and present talent as an actor and coach, Tim is just pure joy to be around. Working with him is guaranteed to put a smile on your face, warm your heart, and improve your performance immensely.
