What they're saying about RISING STARS.... "...today we went to our first class with Rising Stars in San Diego with our daughter Audrey. My husband and I were so impressed with how your company showed such professionalism and high energy! With not knowing what to expect, our expectations far exceeded anything we imagined. I thought that Gene is a master of his craft! The children were so very happy, and when one of them was a little nervous, he was right there cheering them on! We feel so very, very blessed, and lucky to be placed with such caring, professional people. With an industry that is filled with so many "bad things" to say about children and acting, it is something our daughter has a passion for. With this knowledge and a whole lot of prayer, we feel very fortunate to have Audrey in this class. I would like to just say a many thanks. My husband and I look forward to our weekends at Rising Star watching our daughter be filled with joy, opening her heart and her soul, and watching her fly! For this, I thank you Gene, and the rest of the people who make children smile and laugh, grow and learn." - Suzanne Felando Mattson, student's mom
"Dear coach Gene, I always keep your coaching advice in mind... I recently got a green star from my showcase evaluation! Thank you for giving me a strong start. I really enjoy the ongoing classes and learn a lot from each month's theme. Your program is really great!" - Steven Chao, student "I just wanted to give some feedback about Romeo - one word, AWESOME! He had the children's attention. The children were all so engaged and begging for more from Romeo! He was really able to keep the class from getting too ancy even at the end of the day! Very cool! ...there were lots of smiling faces on the children as well as the adults!" - Suzanne Felando Mattson, student's mom "I auditioned for upcomming kids’ shows: “B. Boppin” and “Field Trip Freddie”. I recieved a spot as one of the girls in the “Nectar Band” playing a guitar for “B. Boppin”. I was also asked to be an extra in “Field Trip Freddie” where I did my first taping yesterday. We wanted to also let you know, that coach Romeo has been a great teacher for our daughter during Acting Boot Camp and hope other parents and kids get the chance to have the same wondeful experience we had." - JoAnn Moreno (student) & her parents "I just wanted to give a little shout out about Steve Budd and the Acting Boot Camp. He is excellent! I was able to be a parent volunteer yesterday so I really got to see him at work with the kids. He is very good with them, has so much to teach them, delivers it all with a good balance of seriousness, playfulness, and strictness. Thanks for such a high-quality course. - Colleen, student's mom "David is a fine man and an excellent acting coach. I don't know anybody elses experience with him , but I can say my child loves him. Not that I am an expert by any means when it comes to acting, but I know from what I have observed he is a fine catch when it comes to coaches. He is fair, firm, and consistent when it comes to handling business with the students." - Don Huber, student's dad "I just wanted to write a little note to let you know what a wonderful teacher Vivian is. Kristin is learning so much and has really grown into a wonderful actress." - Susan Masterson, student's mom
"Coach Vivian is super duper! She helped me develop my first character. She always encourages and motivates me to do things outside of my comfort zone. The acting training even boosts my grades. I now get A+ on my school presentations" - Steven Chao, student "...showed up for an 'extra part' at an audition, and the director ended up casting my daughter on the spot in a Supporting Role! No written script - she did a couple of lines and improvised the rest. Thanks to Rising Stars she had the confidence to pull it off! - Lisa Sheftman, student's mom "Francis has been the instructor for my daughter's ongoing acting classes. Francis is inspirational and energetic with the kids. She uses mounds of patience, knowledge of the subject matter, and is always well prepared for class. Her spontaneous humor and good nature helps to inspire the kids on a level they can relate to." - Sandra Abril, student's mom "Rising Stars has really helped me become more confident, and of course helped me to improve my acting skills. The second I walk into class I'm having a blast." - Melanie Rains, student "I like Rising Stars a lot! The teachers are great and they are also teaching us a lot. They are teaching us to show our smiles in slates and all the other stuff." - Camille B., student "...My five year old daughter just completed the 6 week boot camp. We had a wonderful experience and I wanted to let you know what a great job Mark Muranyi did. He was very knowledgeable and related with the kids so well. You are very lucky to have him as a part of your team. Thanks again for creating such a neat program for kids. We look forward to continuing training in the future!". - Jenny Jenike, parent
