THE
STUDIO
Located in the heart of hip Los Feliz, the Wayne Dvorak Acting Studio is one of the longest running and most highly reviewed Meisner-based training programs in Los Angeles.
​
This unique program is Meisner modernized to suit the rapidly changing industry of film and television. It's more than a "method" of acting - it's a dedicated program designed to develop your innate talents and authentic point-of-view. Find the emotional depth to act without acting, but the discipline to have consistency and control in your work.
​
Do what you came here to do. Time to be a working actor. Time to do the work.
Former student known for Dancing with the Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, Bones, Baby Daddy, and Honey 2

They are the best-trained young actors I've found in many years of directing.

Wayne's Meisner program has been the most pivotal for my acting technique. And, he's the only Meisner coach in Los Angeles who can show you how to use Meisner in comedy!

He is so straightforward-so if you're ready to be a professional actor, get ready to hear what he has to say. The way he breaks down the Meisner technique is incredible... he doesn't read it from a book. He's been doing this for so many years he works with you one-on-one. He will work with you until you unwrap all your emotions!

[The Wayne Dvorak Acting Studio showcases] consistently professional work in a non-competitive and positive atmosphere. Professionalism gives you the edge in this competitive industry.

The Meisner training was a major factor in me booking the lead in a SAG Independent feature. Getting to read for many working casting directors, in the studio's Professional Program, has been a great opportunity which has led to several auditions for network episodes and independent films.

The Wayne Dvorak Acting Studio is serious training for the SERIOUS actor. Wayne taught me how to draw out and work with my creativity in an honest and safe environment. I learned a skilled commitment to my craft, that I use on every set!
Any actor looking for a solid foundation to his craft will greatly benefit from Wayne Dvorak's Meisner training. Wayne's classes are small and effective and every student gets the education they deserve to dig deep in creating truth under imaginary circumstances in a safe and supportive environment.
