About BEKA
I am a WORKING Character Actor for 30+ years! I've produced a Music Video and 2 Film Shorts (1 won many awards on Festival Circuit and 1 currently in Post Production) with more personal projects in the works. Spent most my career as a Stage Actor...but last 12 years in the Indie Film Circuit. I only do Private Acting Coaching as it's a much more personal connection that I feel is really needed for a good trust factor as well as getting to the Nuggets within my clients much faster! I'm all about helping you HONE your Craft Skills & helping you dump your Unique things standing in your way of Working Progress. Which can be Twitches, Confidence, just plain acting ability...etc. I go by one name in the biz...BEKA. But you'll find me on facebook as BEKA JEAN. (concealed information) I try to work with all Budgets as best I can. I will also do very quick last minute audition coachings on Zoom or WhatsApp as well!
There is nothing more thrilling than passing on skills and knowledge that have been gleaned from other studies or in the growth of my own career. Paying it forward no matter how you do it, is what it is all about! I enjoy the smiles that comes from the confidence coaching instills! Any art or artistic endeavor benefits the soul greatly!
A natural progression plus I like passing on knowledge!
A LIFETIME within my Craft...BEING a WORKING ACTOR and of course passing on that same life-work knowledge both from jobbing as well as from other lessons!

I first do a phone consult to determine focus and needs. Depending on that need is how I base the first lesson. I like a pressure-free atmosphere and allow choices to be made by client within a structure we set up together. IF a coach and client are not on the same page from the beginning...it will never work to the client's advantage.
Teens to 65.
I would definitely go with somene who is still working and not retired for one fact only....they are current with audition and hiring knowledge!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
IF they are SERIOUS about either wanting to explore as a craft OR if they are serious about learining to further hone their craft. Private Coaching is much different than a class atmosphere. More person al one on one. It can also ease you into taking classes as well. and your WHY you want to take it really important. DEFINE YOUR WHY then proceed!

Perfect! BEKA is great to work with. She is very personable and patient and make you feel comfortable exploring your work. She talks through any direction she's giving so that it makes sense from multiple angles. Highly recommend!
Perfect! I had my first session with BEKA and she was amazing. She worked with me on two monologues and she was able to quickly and expertly dissect the material, and was able to help me try out various ways of making the performances stronger. She is kind and gentle with how she delivers notes, but at the same time has a solid opinion on how to improve. In other words, she makes you feel safe to receive criticism but isn't going to let you off the hook if you're not getting where you need to be to get the attention of your audience. I feel like working with her will help me get to where I want to be.
Perfect! My first coaching session with Beka very pleasant,comfrtable and looking forward to next session next week.Joe

She takes the time to get to know you, and develops your skills at your growth rate. Her lessons are very informative and she will move you to the next level of success.
I learned more in one session studying for a monologue with her, then I did being on 5 movie sets! This is why I continue taking classes with Beka.
Beka goes beyond just being a coach, almost like having a friend in the business, because she also gave me tips on how to get work, and who to talk to and inside information I'm getting gigs!View more recommendations
