Acting, audition and accent coaching by acclaimed stage & screen actor, RADA Graduate and Designated Meisner Teacher

I began by taking Leonard's group acting course, before returning for several individual coaching sessions to prepare for my drama school auditions. I have found him to be an incredibly diligent, motivated and encouraging teacher. He always knows how to get the best out of his students and truly cares about helping every actor he works with to deepen their understanding of the craft. It was truly astounding to watch every student in my group course grow so much as a performer in such a short span of time.

Leonard is an excellent acting teacher who provides first rate coaching. I initially took one of his group courses before returning for some individual coaching to prepare for drama my school auditions. He is a diligent, hardworking teacher who will always come highly prepared to sessions, and he is incredibly articulate and precise when talking about the artistic process. Every lesson I have had with him has helped me to better understand my own acting process, and from seeing him work with larger groups it's clear to me that he always knows how to bring out the best in his students.

I couldn’t recommend Leonard enough. I began working with Leonard last year on his introduction to Meisner course and then most recently the Advanced course, and I made more progress during both those courses than all others combined. I’ve worked with Leonard on a 1:1 basis quite regularly and booked my first two professional jobs thanks to his help. Most importantly, Leonard creates a very safe space for you to fail and explore without judgment, being incredibly caring and meeting you wherever you are. He makes the work accessible and simple in a way where anyone can reap the rewards. I am very grateful for the work and to have him as my teacher and would highly recommend that if you have the chance, dive in too!

I have been taking group classes and doing 1-on-1 sessions with Leonard for the past 9 months, and in my opinion there is nobody who offers such professional-level coaching anywhere in Ireland

Available for all levels, Leonard has a way of making sure that everybody gets the most out of each session. He is thoughtful, provoking (in the best way) and super skilled at what he does. It is no surprise that every actor I bump into has either done a class with him, or heard great things from others.

Being able to have a working professional doing regular sessions in Dublin has been a game changer!

I met Leonard in his introductory Meisner course. Since then, I have done his advanced course twice and am currently taking part in his scene study course. This is all to say that I return for Leonard and his practice. His ability to connect with actors is second to none and leads to immense improvement and confidence within the craft in a very short space of time. You will be making a very good decision working with Leonard.
