I am so happy that my son Leo is part of this phenomenal experience, an entre’ into the world of acting and creative self-​expression. By practicing the art of acting and cultivating his full range of emotional expression, Leo has achieved a sense of self-​awareness and insight into his behavioral choices. He is able to say, «I can act!» I give props to the entire crew at 3−2−1 Acting. Ms. Mae and her one-​on-​one approach with my child opened doors for him that lead to self-​initiated commitment to his work at the studios. Ms. Holly’s unconditional positive regard toward my child and family members has been a steady source of support.

Great acting school. Ms. Mae and the staff truly CARE about the child as well as the parents. Initially we started out with some classes as I wanted my kids to get over their shyness. Having them do a free trial class was GREAT as I got to see what it was about before committing. After doing several classes Ms. Mae recommended them to the Showcase Class. What a blessing that class was as they basically held my hand the entire way to finding an agent and all the things along the way that I would have never figured out on my own. I felt so AT EASE and was able to sit back and relax while everything around me was getting done from approving audition outfits, to getting fabulous headshots from Light and Shine Photography, to auditioning in front of agents. It has been a wonderful experience from start to finish and it doesn’t end after meeting agents. The staff will call you and make sure you are still getting what you need and provide guidance along the way. So thank you Ms. Mae, Holly, Alejandra and all those who helped us so much along the way!

It all started with a free class at 3−2−1 Acting Studios where my 5-​year old twin Benjamin fell in love with it. He very much enjoys going there. Ms. Mae and her staff are welcoming, friendly, professional, fun and always helpful. It’s a great and supporting place. Benjamin was soon recruited to showcase and learned all about getting ready to present to agents — the experience has been very valuable, not only for him but also for us parents. I highly recommend this studio for your children and all young adults!

My son started with 321 studios last Fall 2015 and began attending the classes. We noticed an immediate improvement with his skills and confidence. The staff at 321 studios have been very supportive and encouraging. After a few months, he attended the Showcase presentation. It has been a great experience. He just signed with a great agency and we couldn’t be happier. Thank you 321 for your continual support!!!

We first met Ms. Mae back in 2011. My two kids started their acting classes with her and after their Talent Showcase with agents they signed with top notch agencies and immediately started to work. Since then I recommended 4 other kids and each of the 4 have all signed with agencies after the showcase.
That’s 6 for 6 that signed!
Two, including my son, are now SAG, another child is at an acting conservatory, but best of all six are still working.
My youngest is still going to classes with Ms. Mae and because of her start with 321, she has expanded her interest to stage, voice overs and musicals.
Ms. Mae and her teachers impress upon you at this early age to be passionate about what you do, to have confidence, and to go out there and get things done!
I LOVE THIS SCHOOL!

I’m updating my previous review because two years after writing it, I am still just as happy with the coaching and support available at 3−2−1 Acting. My second daughter is now taking classes as well and she is loving it! I’ve seen tremendous improvement in my older daughter as she has continued her training there over the years.
What really stands out about 3−2−1 aside from the professional training, is how the staff truly cares about the kids. Ms. Mae and her team are always available to encourage, advise, and help in any way they can. They never forget their students and even if your child hasn’t taken class in a while, they will treat him/​her like returning family. I’ve sat in the waiting room countless times and watched older, returning students visit and be greeted with warm hugs and excited smiles.
I think having so much experience in this tough industry has given Ms. Mae a heart for making sure her students always have a safe place to land.

The acting program and Showcase programs were wonderful experiences for our son
He loved going to acting class and loved Showcase.
Both the acting classes and showcase experience really helped our six year old son build confidence in himself.
We went to an open house for a school and when he introduced himself to the head of school, he greeted him and gave a firm handshake and looked the principal in the eye when he did so. The principal was impressed.
Ms Mae and her staff are polite, genuinely warm and friendly and truly work with you and your child to bring out the best in them. Plenty of praise and encouragement for all!
In the showcase program, 321 Acting Studios does an excellent job at preparing not just the children to meet with agents and managers, but educates and prepares the parents as well and they are always available to answer questions and concerns about any and all aspects of the Showcase
I highly recommend 3−2−1 Acting Studios!

I honestly feel like 3−2−1 Acting Studios is like my second home. I’ve been going to this acting school for 3 years and I still learn new things. They cover the ins and outs of acting & give advice based on their encounters with the industry as they go over your acting with you. I feel so connected with them because besides just being great people, they can identify with anything we students go through. In fact, the staff & instructors are still acting, even though they already have a very credible acting resume. The owner, Ms. Mae, & her lovely staff can definitely help you get started in your acting career & possibly land an agent like I did. Thanks a lot, you guys!

My daughter Rachel loved the classes right away. She says, «It’s fun Mom!» Ms. Mae, the owner is caring and knowledgeable. The staff are kind and helpful as well. The school is teaches well and allows the student to enjoy at the same time and the best part they are flexible with completing their classes as fast as you want or at your own pace and schedule.
Rachel showcased and is scheduled to meet with talent agents in the next week. Thank you 321 Acting Studios for your classes and guidance.

I love this place! Ms. Mae and her beautiful staff are amazing. My daughter looks forward to her classes. 3−2−1 Acting Studios is teaching her skills that go far beyond acting alone, her confidence and self esteem blossomed here.
From day one, I knew this was the place, now after completing the «Showcase» (recommended) agents are interested in meeting my daughter.
With all the support and education about the industry I’ve received at 3−2−1 Acting Studios, I’m confident and informed to better navigate my daughter’s career.

321 Acting Studios honestly deserves 6 stars. The teachers and staff in general are incredible. Despite the many students at 321, they still get to know each kid individually. I have learned so much here, met amazing people, and received some great headshots! 321 has also given me the opportunity to meet with several top agencies. It’s the perfect place for those who want to pursue their dream of acting but don’t know where to start!

321 is top notch! I wish I could give them MORE than 5 stars! We drive out from Ventura, because 321 is worth every mile! The entire staff is PROFESSIONAL, their communications are timely and thorough, and the owner will introduce herself to your family on day one and you will see and interact with her at every visit/​class. I’ve been so impressed with the quality of their classes as well as the follow through. My daughter was invited to «Showcase» after three classes (she had some previous experience and training) and they went the extra mile in getting my daughter and the other showcasers fully prepared… They literally took care of EVERYTHING! My daughter just recently had her showcase day and has already had two agent callbacks and has booked a music video. Samarra will continue her training and development at 321 and we are very excited for her future in the industry! I recommend to anyone reading this that you check out 321! The first class is FREE! You have nothing to lose and everything to GAIN!

This place is by far the best and most reliable studio! This place is not only for younger children but for young adults too. They have great teachers and instructors that bring out the actors best. I attended for classes and absolutely loved it. It was challenging yet so beneficial in my acting journey! Ms. Mae is also fantastic and she wants the best for her children! I highly recommend this place who wants to step their foot into the acting life and career! I drove from upland to la crasenta for this place and it was definately worth it. She helped me meet agencies that are top notch and reliable. Literally do not miss this opportunity in chasing your dreams.

There’s so much to say about 3−2−1−! 3−2−1− Acting Studios is a place to go not only for a quality acting education but it’s like having a family that’s always there to help you and WANTS to see you succeed. I did the Showcase Program when I was 22 and Ms. Mae worked with me endlessly until I got and landed a top agent. I was new to Los Angeles and 3−2−1− really gave me a home and a foundation to build from. I always ask questions and the 3−2−1− staff is so willing to help no matter what the situation is, an audition, a resume question or just to talk about new prospects. They don’t stop until you are happy. It teaches commitment and truly gives you (and your family) the truth about acting and makes it fun and purposeful for your career even if it doesn’t end up being acting. 3−2−1− is a place to go for training, careers, and most importantly, FUN! I feel like I will ALWAYS be a member here. Thanks 3−2−1−!
