"In just six weeks, Natela's course and her no fuss, direct approach, gave me the tools and the confidence to power through a gruelling audition process and score a lead role in the upcoming US Telemovie of the week:- Dynasty (Behind the Scenes). I would highly recommend any of her courses to all actors - either amateur or professional, beginner or experienced. No one teaches Stanislavsky like this Lady can!" - Ritchie Singer "Thankyou Natela for offering me your knowledge and the experience to be part of your class. Your support was not of a teacher's but of a friend's and your style is blatantly unique. I absolutely enjoyed every part of it and sincerely believe that you are one of Sydney's greatest acting coaches with so much to offer." - Sigourney Luz "Dear Natela! I want to
thank you for teaching Michael Chekhov's Acting Technique
to me. I thoroughly enjoyed every lesson I had with you. In
fact I have never felt so inspired! It's as if I have grown
my own set of wings! I love the way you teach, you encourage
everyone in class, and I find your positive can-do attitude to
be your strength. You know your stuff! Chekhov is a must for
any experienced Actor without a doubt. I can strongly recommend
your Mechanics of Emotion, Presence and Charisma course to any
actor who is passionate about their craft as I am. Michael
Chekhov's Acting Technique is the most readily available,
harmonious and creative method there is. I cannot thank you
enough for teaching it to me!
- Clayton Moss "Hi Natela, Yes! Was offered places at VCA QUT Actors Centre and WAAPA. So WAAPA is it! Thankyou so much for your wonderful help." - Nicole Shostak "Hi Natela, I've really loved the course
and will definitely do it again! I've learned something valuable every time,
I wish I'd done this years ago! - Janiika Miekkala "Hi Natela. Thank you so much for your classes they were just fantastic! My week is missing them already. Not only were they insightful and uplifting exercises every actor should experience at least once, for me they were more like meditation. The gentle focus fused with enthusiasm you inspired was a lovely thing to be a part of, and I now feel equipped with a valuable set of tools which I will always have at my disposal. I would love to do preparing a monologue if you have space in your classes!" - Monica Sanderson "Thank you for all your training Natela... all I have to do now is remember the words and the music and then your input brings it all together... you have been such a help to my acting ability, you are a wonderful mentor!" - Michael Simms "I have taken both Natela's Chekhov and Stanislavsky courses and they have given me a solid base to my acting technique and significant growth in my confidence. What I loved about her classes is that the entire time I was up on my feet exploring the exercises and not just sitting and watching. She gets everyone up and doing and learning. Since starting her classes I have an agent and am working in the industry and going to L.A in April. I am constantly using the Chekhov techniques when I'm warming up and building a character. Her classes were such an inspiration to me." - Joanne Sanders "By the way... I just won a speech competition and I think I owe a lot of it to what I learned through your courses... especially the monologue one... it's my secret weapon... any courses open for DEC/JAN?" - Jeff Mesina "Natela, I really loved the classes and love the technique! Very inspiring and I love how you nurtured each of us to bring out our own unique individuality and created a space for freedom with creativity. :-)" - Nick Dale "Hi Natela, first of all I wanted to
say a BIG thank you for your assistance and being a great teacher and I
definitely made the best decision in coming to your classes. I have done plenty of acting
classes and nothing compares to your teaching, it is very simple, fun and very easy to
apply and it definitely cater for all skill levels. In also saying that I found that your classes
has given me more tools up my sleeve that I can pull out at anytime and apply to any
audition. I have achieved so much in such a short amount of time.
- Clariza Pearce "Referring to Natela as only second to Chekhov and Stanislavski themselves is an understatement. I couldn't recommend her classes more, especially Chekhov's class Mechanics of Emotion, Presence and Charisma- it's real magic, no joke! Unlike Red bull, she actually gives you wings. it's true - Natela gives you wingssss!... this slogan is rightfully yours Natela (they stole it of you..) needless to say, you're one talented genius.. couldn't have picked a better teacher... this was definitely divine intervention. Thanks a million!!!!" - Marija Bjelan "Natela's classes are the best classes I have ever attended. I wish I were in Sydney… On the plus side, I'm in LA and my career is going well. I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Natela. I'm not just saying that - I seriously wish I could study with Natela here in LA." - Laura Rossi "Dear Natela, I just wanted to say thank you for your guidance and coaching in both the 2 courses that I did at Acting World. They have made me the actor that I am today. I soaked up all the inspiration and strength from you and that had added another dimension to my acting as well. I enjoyed particularly the Chekov course, I continuously use the principles in most of my auditions nowadays and they never fail me!" - Preity Uupala "i don't want next week to be the last class. :( i'm absolutely LOVING it.. you're so talented. it's unbeleiveable!!! see you monday.." - Lidia Stojanoska "Hi Natela. Thank you so much for such a great course. It was so inspiring to me and has developed a thirst for the Chekhov technique even more.... I am impressed with the ease in which everything is done, and it taps into a deeper artistic side of me that i really want to explore. Hope to see you and work with you again soon. " - Olga Assabgy "Hi Natela. I cannot tell you how much I am enjoying the classes. None of the other courses, or teachers, I have had have made me feel as excited about acting as I do when I'm driving home after class on Monday nights." - Paul Miller "Hi Natela, thought I would share with you: I have the part for the audition I attended on Thursday - Thanks to your teachings :)" - Giselle Da Silva "Natela Dzuliashvili is an amazing acting teacher. I recently took on Stanislavsky class and the best way I can describe it is being combination of inspiration, creativity, technique drilling, and most of all loads of fun! Just some of the things you can expect in the 2-3 hour intensive class. What I enjoyed the most about the class is that it had a strong focus in the practicality aspect of acting. As Natela said back in the Moscow Theatre actors learn by doing. Most of the exercises were very active and had a focus on the importance of improvisation. Improvisation gives you the spontaneous moments in the scene, something that is born in that moment that can never be repeated. When you are asked to repeat something or do another take, they are expecting something of the same quality. I would highly recommend her classes." - Andy Minh Trieu "Hi Natela, just wanted to give you some feedback on class 1 of Mechanics of Emotions... well, in one word WOW! 7 more weeks of this, awesome" - David Phillips "I think you are an absolutely amazing acting teacher, I am so pleased to be taking your classes, I feel very fortunate as they are making a huge difference to my everyday life as well. I look forward to continuing this journey with you, Natela." - Nadia Pavia "Natela's vibrant actor's instincts, combined with her deep seated knowledge of the Stanislavsky Method Acting, ensures the committed actor need never again be at loss in search for transcendent, inspired performance." - John Black "Dear Natela, your class yesterday night was amazing! I'm really enjoying your Michael Chekhov Acting Technique! It's fantastic and you are a fabulous teacher! Your courses are extremely effective! Great! Thank you!" - Maya Tozzi "I came to Natela looking for short-term help for an audition I had for a major role in the musical Jekyll and Hyde and left with so much more. In a very short time Natela got straight to the point and gave me some simple but powerful tools that took me from acting the character to actually being the character. It was amazing and as a result my audition really allowed me to forget about me and just be the character. And guess what I got the gig!!" - Steve Hart "Hi Natela. The Michael Chekhov Acting Technique course was extremely interesting. I have read books and listened to recordings of his but never quite understood the technique until studying it with you. Some of the techniques are very helpful. Especially for me the imaginary centres and the moulding exercise. When I applied it in an audition I got a role. Many thanx." - Tara Jay "Dear Natela thank you SO MUCH for the Creating a Role course. It was such a fantastic experience. I have learned a lot! I have done all your courses and I just don't have enough words to express how much I loved them all and how much I am thankful to you." - Olga Kornienko "I'm in HK right now and came across some happy news - I got my first TV guestie role on EW101! Thought I'd email and thank you for the tuition so far. Look forward to more lessons when I get back into the country!" - Abbey Wong "I thoroughly enjoyed both the classes Natela so much so that I didn't want them to end! Really hope that I can do more courses in February, and hopefully we can catch up before that as well." "Natela, the Creating a Role Course is the creme de la creme. From the meticulous way you break down the script line by line, coupled with the comprehensive blocking of the scene, and of course backed by your precise guidance and teaching for the actors made this course invaluable. Rest assured Natela, this is a course I will do again... and again, and again, and again!" - David Phillips "Natela, first I just want to thank you for the class I just completed with you, I enjoyed it very much. It taught me many things I hadn't ever learnt in any other acting class, you are a great teacher and person. Secondly if it is possible, I'd like to be kept updated on any future classes you will be holding. Thank you very much." - Rachel Nader "Natela, it's Gerry here the Scottish guy you where coaching before Christmas. Just to let you know I got into 2 of the 3 colleges I applied for. So thank you for all your help. I have decided on the RSAMD in Glasgow… Many thanks." - Gerry Harkins "I'm doing really well! Came back from Melbourne a few weeks ago starring in a comedy called Dark Angels... Hope to start the monologue class. All your classes have helped me achieve the confidence to do what I am doing now..." - Kelly James "Natela's course was unlike any other classes which I attended in Sydney. I got the greatest understanding about the true nature of acting. I have learnt a lot. It brought together all the training I've done before and gave me a way to connect all my knowledge and apply it to my work. It's a course which one should do several times..." - Clare Griggs "I found Natela's course amazing. I had done a Basic Acting Techniques at NIDA and wanted to do more improvisation. Natela's course has simple building blocks, which have had breakthrough results for me. I only wanted to improve some skills but have found myself enjoying the acting and becoming more confident each time. The focus is on the acting first with the text later and that is really liberating. I would recommend her course without reservation. It's the best thing I have ever done!!!" - Philip Manidis "Dear Natela, thank you so much for the opportunity to learn from you. I have gained much from the classes and I feel it has improved my understanding - of actors and scripts - that my direction and writing has improved." - Gretel Van-Lane "What I learned in the short space of time was beneficial. The practical exercises were pivotal in learning. I found I learn more by doing it, rather then people just talking at me." - Robert Luxford "Natela, I just wanted to thank you for the Monologue and Audition Techniques course. I actually did the Treplev monologue recently for an audition that I did for a part in an amateur production of the Australian play Dimboola. I got the part and appeared as the character Bayonet. The show was sold out both nights (130 people per night). I would like to do another class in future..." - Geoff Rumble "I joined Natela's foundation class as an acting course virgin. I was intimidated and petrified but Natela's natural, reassuring style and my fabulously supportive classmates disarmed my fear and helped me find my confidence. I had an absolute ball learning to analyse and apply the techniques for good acting and will definitely be a returning student."
