Each child will be challenged according to
their current level of training.
Focusing on Joy & Self-Esteem.

All classes are taught by Alexandria Stevens.
Alex is an Acting Coach and a Life Coach.
This is where stage-coaching meets life-coaching!

"I will help you build a more Powerful Presence.
Many of my nurturing & goal achievement techniques
are incorporated into my methodology as an acting teacher.
My students learn, grow, change & succeed."

"Alex is an extremely motivational coach. She's a consummate professional and extracts
the performance needed. She's a professional in sync with the actor because of her own
acting background. "
   Bryan Kinnaird - Filmmaker & Creator/Writer of 'The Villikon Chronicles'

"My professors in school also notice the difference, whether it is an essay or power point I am presenting.  Your coaching has also helped me in reading my winning poetry and  fiction entries in the  Mindy Falnes writing contest."   Robyn Elliot

"I have taken acting classes with Alexandria Stevens for 6 months.  
She is a talented and gifted teacher. With the combination of knowledge and positive reinforcement, 
she takes you to the next level as an actor.
I would highly recommend Alexandria's classes if you are interested in a career in acting."    Kelly Ann Priestly


"I have had the pleasure of taking a couple classes from
Alexandria and I must say they were some of the most encouraging and fun classes I've taken.  I always learn best in a safe but challenging environment and Alexandria does a great job at finding the balance between pushing you to be the best you can be but being supportive with genuine love"  -  Cavin Gray Schneider

For a plethora of ideas on how to beat fear,
Check out my book,
Power Tools: Ideas You Can Use To Disassemble Fear

on amazon.com 

"Alex's book is a masterpiece in friendly persuasion.
The fact that each of us is innately precious and has the ability
to find delight in life hits home again and again in
this brilliantly crafted book.  Numerous times, simply
opening up Power Tools and reading one line
has snatched me from the precipice of depression and
carried me on angel's wings into the realms of divine truth."
Kelly Athena Richards, author of Dancing Heart,
Photographer . Author . Artist . Hunger Advocate

"It's like having a personal coach in your office at all times.
As the owner of a business, you often have to confront fear head-on. Now you have a companion in that endeavor in the form of Power Tools by Alexandria Stevens. Alexandria has coached me in person, and her book is voiced in the same conversational, easy-going, and encouraging tone.
Power Tools touches on many of the sources of fear - the biological foundation, the social causes, and one's personal development & outlook. Because of this, there is something here for everyone.
Conversely, not everything in this book may apply to you. However, the short chapter length means that no matter what your challenge is, you can pick this book off the shelf and find some well-deserved encouragement.
Many successful people rely on coaches at both the personal and the executive level. With Power Tools, you can take a 5-minute coaching break every day, in the middle of whatever your challenges are."
