Jagger,
I was really impressed by your class today. I've kind of been bragging about it all night! I just re-entered the legit world this fall, and of all the workshops I've taken, I learned the most from yours. I am soooo sold on your classes and excited to be in your Comedic Acting Class now!
You are a sweet, endearing and supportive acting coach who will fight for talent to discover new levels of their character.
Thanks again!
Jewel Elizabeth

Jagger,
What can I say.....I've taken several of your classes and each time I learn something new and worthwhile. Your most recent Comedic Class did wonders for me. You taught me how to 'act' by not acting and to be myself so that my natural talent and personality shine through. Because of your unique teaching, I've been called for more auditions and have had call-backs. I'm now waiting to hear if I got a role in a new Indie film. Thank you Jagger for being there for me, you're the best. You can count on me to take more of your classes and spread the word about you to my friends in the acting community.
