"Most people..well only one or two actually..know this..our daughter was diagnosed as possibly deaf..borderline autistic..went through a year of speech therapy and they wanted to do ear implants at 5..was failing everything in kindergarten and they wanted to put her in a special program for learning disabled..turns out she needed surgery to release her tongue..how this was missed I don't know..2 years later she attended an acting workshop with Michael Haney and was made to feel so confident and welcome! I think the next closest student was maybe 16 and up! When this page of notes came home I was flabbergasted and I keep it as a super fond momento! I remember my husband saying..is this ok..there are no other kids there..than him peeking in and calling me and saying..wow she is fine rolling on the floor being crazy..I am going for a beer and will go back when it's over! Thank you Michael Haney and all those that have supported our little one over the years!  Michael Haney's workshops are for everyone who wants to learn to feel free in acting!"

"I had a casting for a short film so i went to Michael Haney to prepare for the reading. I had two hour one on one session and it helped to built my confidence and ultimately I got the part. I highly recommend Michael Haney's acting classes, he's very knowledgeable and excellent instructor."

"I've known Michael Haney for many years now and he is an excellent and talented acting teacher and coach.  He is very knowledgeable and has complete grasp of the Meisner technique and he teaches it with enthusiasm, confidence and skill.  In the beginning we started out doing simple exercises, then moved on to doing whole scenes.  After just one year of studying with him, I have gone on to do TV shows, films and several parts in plays.  I recommend him highly to anyone just starting out or to the seasoned professional who wants to get a better understanding of the Meisner approach and how to behave more truthfully under imaginary circumstances, the core of his teachings."

"Michael is a nice and patient teacher. I took classes with him and learned about various acting techniques. I still utlitize the skills he taught me today. I currently reside in L.A. and I am still learning about the profession.  If you are just starting out, Mike would be a great teacher to learn with. I still keep in contact with him years later. He loves acting and passes that love down.  I am now working closer to my goals."

Mr. Haney has opened the door for my performance ability. His class has allowed me to enter my deepest emotions and convey them in a powerful, yet truthful manner!

"Within my first weeks of Michael's class I learned so much about the importance of listening and living truthfully in the moment that I feel my performance capabilities have already improved. I suggest Michael's class not only to those seeking a deeper understanding of the acting technique, but to anyone interested in exploring the possibilities of spontaneity."
Thanks!

"I definately second that! I have only been to two of his classes, and boy I got to find out how wrong I was about acting. It isn't about you, it is about the person in front of you. Like somone said, you're only as good of an actor as the person in front of you, or as bad."
