'Andrew has phenomenally unorthodox training techniques and practices which he implements and adjusts to suit you as optimally as possible. His approach to training the Actor in their totality is a breath of fresh air to work with; like nothing I have experienced before, or since.

Having this man in your corner is a secret superpower.'

‘I simply cannot recommend Andrew Darren Elkins enough! His passion for exploring character, finding the natural nuances in a scene and always always grounding a performance in truth is second to none. Not only is Andrew dedicated to his craft, he is dedicated to the individual. Working with Andrew, you always feel supported and encouraged. In an industry that can be cold and competitive, Andrew creates a safe and honest environment in which you can play and really push yourself.'

“I was in search of a coach. Someone that I could trust and work with on a consistent basis to help me prep for major auditions. 

There are usually three types of acting coaches: The ones who charge an exorbitant amount of money for useless feedback. The coaches who blow smoke and sprinkle fairy dust. And those coaches who believe verbal and mental abuse is the best course of action for inspiring an authentic performance. 

Andrew is the fourth and rarest kind. A perfect balance of candor and sincerity, tied with a lovely bow of professionalism. I know with Andrew I can expect specific and constructive feedback. Working with him has not only improved my technique, but it’s also helped build my confidence. Dedicated time and attention is given to building a personalized plan. No actor is one size fits all, because no human is one size fits all. Why should your coach be? Not only do we pinpoint the areas where I need a little extra work, but he also teaches me how to amplify my strengths. 

He is the professional working actor’s coach. I feel more confident now than I ever have in my career. He pays close attention to the human behind the actor. Taking great care to highlight the importance of mindset and mental health. I am proud to say that I am now working as a series regular on a show streaming on all major platforms globally. I wish nothing more than to continue on this journey of self discovery and personal growth. BOOK WITH ANDREW! Otherwise I will monopolize as much of his time as I can. This is the winners circle.”

“This man made me the actor I am today. He has mastered the art of simplistic complexity in the way he teaches which results inevitably seeps into your way of acting. He taught me not only to breath, speak and listen while on the set but also that I am enough! Regardless of what I give on the stage, any stage that day, it was enough! My mistake was to think that lesson was tools I need for just acting… It’s my daily mantra now. I have been recommending him ever since. Oh yeah.. cancel your gym membership, just book Andrew.”

"My first acting class was with Andrew and I am so glad it was with him. I was very new but he was so passionate in his teachings. His insights and teachings were valuable to me and helped me grow in my profession. It's been nearly over 5 years and still attend his workshops. It's not a quick fix but a journey. Thank you Andrew, you have most definitely been part of my progress in this industry and I am forever indebted to you."

“Working with Andrew is always a positive and engaging experience. From the first ever class I had with him until now, I have only ever seen and worked with a human who is willing to journey, challenge, stretch and push you whilst continuously looking to actively grow and learn himself. He is direct, clear, concise, patient and honest. So long as you are willing to take the plunge and be open to an insightful, knowledge filled, inquisitive, physically and mentally engaging adventure through and in the craft of acting then you will only flourish and grow working with Andrew. He is a pleasure to work with and a gift to actors alike!”

“Only a few coaches have given me my ‘lightbulb’ moments in acting, and Andrew is most certainly the biggest bulb for me yet, every class has opened a new depth in every scene I breakdown and do. His classes are so worth it!’
