Kanata Acting Studio

I took an acting class with acting coach John Muggleton and I am so glad I did! I was able to get cast after my theatre audition because of his wonderful guidance and tips. I highly recommend working with him, it is 100% worth it!

I had 2 classes with John and really enjoyed them. John is funny, understanding and knows how to make you not too nervous during performance. Being an experienced actor and director himself, he is very knowledgeable and can provide with you a lot of good advice whether you are doing this for fun or pursuing it professionally. He also cares so much about you. One time he was sick and had to cancel the class, besides the email he personally called each student to notify them. Very Impressive! Recommended to anyone that is interested in acting.

I took couple of classes here and I really enjoyed it. John is an exceptional teacher, very observant and understanding, helped me with what I needed most in terms of technique and performance, and I can’t really believe how much I have advanced and enhanced my acting abilities. Also he makes the classes so much fun that going to the class has become one of my hobbies, seeing good friends, laughing all the time, being engaged in a good community that he cherishes. I have talking acting 1,2,3 my favourite classes were the improve which is so much fun and an amazing way to learn acting in general, and the playwright class in which we created a ten minute piece and played it in front of audience. I just want to mention for people out there who are like me looking for some fun and secretive activity to engage with friendly people in a warm environment and forget everything and anything that is bothering them in life for a couple of hours. acting is satisfying and really addictive, frees up the mind from clutter and John makes it really simple to understand and digest.

Wonderful experience! I signed up to spend some time with my eldest daughter who wanted to take the class. Now, I recommend John's class to anyone who wants to act or just try something new. John tempers his class with a perfect balance of fun vs business :) We had a great group, it was a place of total non judgement and support. It became the only 2 hrs of my week where I left all my troubles at the door and was only immersed in the present moment. Very therapeutic! Thanks John, keep up the great work.

I have traveled from the U.S. and have taken 3 outstanding classes at this studio so far. John’s infectious teaching style mirrors his natural, down-to-earth, engaging personality while reflecting his candidly honest and professional approach to learning. The studio’s energetic atmosphere comes alive each night with robust energy in anticipation of the night’s potential. The fun lies the unique and varied challenges…so, the question remains: Are you ready to step forward to follow your dreams?
