What Current Clients Say
"I went to Robert looking for a coach that could help me find a monologue suitable for auditions. Right off the bat he found me a
great monologue that played on my specific strengths as an actor. He then proceeded to take my performance from "a guy reciting a
monologue" to a complete, three dimensional performance that really sucks the audience in." Todd Ryan Jones, Current Client
"As good as you are, he will push to make you better, Robert is not afraid of a fight! In working with him on my One-Woman Show, my true authentic voice emerged out of every word, gesture, movement. No hiding, no cliches, no bullsh*t. I was able to produce a strong piece and go beyond my self-imposed limitations because he creates that kind of environment. A true partner in creating powerful, honest work!" Charmaine Reedy, Actor/Writer
"I just auditioned for the film Freakomous and thanks to the work I did with Robert, I was chosen for a part. I've been to many acting teachers but I find him the best, they don't do for me what Robert does." Lashona Edens, Current client
“Intense, exhilarating and it changed how I approach every aspect of my work! Galinsky is an awesome teacher and an awesome career consultant. ” Barbara Howard, Current Client
"I challenge all who are ready to take step into a new realm of understanding that acting can go beyond just the regurgitation of lines and nailing the part.... .it can transcend into life changing techniques. Some of the skills that Robert Teaches transcend into life skills. Many who set out to act may never become actors.... yet the skills learned here can take you beyond acting. Zhana Saunders, Current Client
“The best investment I have made in my career to date!" Kayla Brown, Current Client
