COACH ME, LAUREN! is a Melbourne based professional acting coaching business. Director, performer and creative collaborator LAUREN McKENNA is passionate about coaching and mentoring emerging young artists. She brings a wealth of experience from both on and off the stage, cultivated during nearly 10 years as a working creative in the Australian performing arts industry. Most students at the studio are young adults who aim to further their training, wish to audition for tertiary institutions in the future or are auditioning and working professionally.
Lauren works closely and collaboratively with her actors and aims to unlock their full potential, borrowing principles and techniques from the Stanislavski, Adler and Hagen methods (to name just a few). Lauren's coaching techniques are based on her own training from The Victorian College of the Arts and her personal practice as an actor and her professional experience in the Australian theatre industry. Lauren loves to find common ground with her students and find out what works best for them, refining their skills, freeing them from habits, unlocking inhibitions, building confidence and creating the best possible version of each young artist.
Lauren teaches private sessions and small group classes from her cosy Prahran home studio that is easily accessible by tram and is surrounded by plenty of convenient street parking.
