John Robert Powers Reviews

First of all they have my grandson's name spelled wrong. I spoke to several individuals from this company that rest assured me this was not a talent scout, and no money would be involved. They sent a script for my grandson to read during the Zoom, “I am still waiting for him to read the script.” We were told “Oh not you do not get to read the script until we finish and if we accept him in our program with a fee”. Several individuals within the Zoom ask several times for the payment not one time did we receive that information. One gentleman “staff member” came in the Zoom with his hat to the side like he was a gangster. Another staff member came in the Zoom like he had just got out the shower “soaking wet”. There were roughly 200 individuals in the Zoom. By time I had enough there were 60 individuals. The Zoom was a waste of 3 hours and my grandson rehearsing a script that he never had a chance to recite.

JRP Fame is a talent development program. They are there to help give guidance and tools to pursue the acting/modeling dream. They were professional and encouraging. They never promised my daughter would be a star from the classes, but the did give her confidence and some direction. Yes it did cost, just as all training cost. After completing her course she was part of a showcase. One of the talent agencies at her performance is interested in signing her. It was a very positive experience.

These acting courses were truly amazing for my daughter. From the start, the staff was incredibly encouraging and adaptive in helping her attend, even when scheduling conflicts arose. The Studio Directors ensured she could participate in all classes, including the valuable Celebrity Workshop. Once enrolled, my daughter worked closely with Ms. **, who was attentive in helping her develop new acting skills. Ms. **, one of the makeup coaches, was a standout, her focus and engagement with students of all ages was remarkable to witness. I had enrolled my daughter to help build her self-esteem and confidence, and the program has exceeded my expectations. She is now part of a Thespian Group that is pushing her to think and perform outside her comfort zone.

0 stars. I signed up for a Zoom for my 7 year old son. The zoom started at 7. By time they got to my son it was 9:35 at night. He was the youngest in the breakout room and Gianna, the agent could clearly see that. She chose older kids and adults before choosing him. She gave these other people plenty of time to adjust their cameras and make any other necessary adjustments they needed. When she finally called my son who is now beyond tired I tried to adjust the camera. She then rudely said, "Your camera is moving too much." I said, "Give me a second to adjust." I did. Then I tried to adjust again and she disconnected the call after waiting for two and a half hours!!!! After she let so many other older people make necessary adjustments. She even let one girl audition who didn’t even apply. It was the sibling of another auditioner. Shame on JRP AND SHAME ON YOU GIANNA. You are horrible.

To start off, I was 16 years old and living in a very rural area with not much around me. I heard an advertisement about JRP on the radio. We had an online audition and afterwards they said I had potential. I was a bit skeptical because I thought I flunked my audition but I used some money I had saved up from my job and chose to follow my gut instinct.

Where do I begin? How about at the FALSE ADVERTISEMENT! I heard their commercial on the radio, which sounded like there was an audition for a project for certain ages in the areas of acting and modeling. They ask you to bring photos and everything. Like everyone else, I walk in with my daughter excited about the opportunity, provide my photos and wait for direction only for this guy to come out begin talking about what we were actually doing there. There was no project to audition for. The audition was for them to see if you (your child) had what it takes for them to be trained by this company! My 5 year old goes through a series of questions where they are trying to see her memorization skills and the "audition" was done. I was handed a packet and told to read it over thoroughly and bring it back the following day because he was still deciding on whether my daughter would be a good fit.

In 1977-1979, Palm Springs, CA, on a dare from my girlfriend, we enrolled to JRP. I was raising 2 children on my own and they were willing to work with me financially! I was so embarrassed… I had no idea how frumpy or plain I was. I learned how to walk and speak with clarity; not be afraid of my own shadow. Makeup! I learned how to apply makeup cleanse and care for my skin without looking like a clown. In other words, “Be a lady”. To this day, I value my learning experience. I’m often told that I am a beautiful lady inside and out. Of course beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I am 71 years young.

My family has had a great experience with this company. They are knowledgeable and professional. I would absolutely recommend John Robert Powers if you are serious about getting into the entertainment industry.

My Director Jessica ** was amazing and really helped me learn more about the industry and feel confident for showcase. I feel so much more prepared for the industry than before I took these classes, thank you!

I told myself that it’s too late for me to be a model, but then I decided to take the risk and to try with John Robert Powers. They prepared me for it and taught me everything I needed to know to be a successful model.

You may not believe it, but I was once a very timid woman who could barely speak in front of an audience. Today, I am a powerful speaker who can rouse crowds. I got this confidence from John Robert Powers and their endless coaching — it’s worth it to invest in yourself.

Working with John Robert Powers has completely transformed our lives. My family and I support my son’s dream of becoming a model, so when this opportunity with JRP came, we took it. Now he’s out performing, and we are all the more thankful for it. He is living his dream, and we are very proud of him.

I thought modeling meant just walking down a runway, but I was mistaken. I quickly realized how out of my league I was on my first rehearsal with JRP. I didn’t even know the basics! But they worked with me and never stopped believing that I could do it. Thanks to my JRP family for helping me become better!

I have been acting for a while now but haven't landed good projects. I enrolled in JRP, and to my surprise, I realized that I was doing a lot of things wrong! I am about to complete my rehearsals, and I am excited to meet the agents at my showcase see if this will widen my horizons.

My name is Makayla, I am 21 years old, and I am from Michigan. One day in October of 2018 I was in my car when I heard an ad on the radio for auditions for John Robert Powers Acting and Modeling. I called the number that was provided and spoke with someone about scheduling an audition. Three days later, my mother and I drove an hour to the hotel where the auditions were being held. The auditions for my group were supposed to start at 12:30 and I will admit they didn't start until a little after 1--but I am patient and wasn't bothered by it (just nervous I had to wait a little bit longer).

JRP keeps me on my toes. I thought I was a good actress before JRP, but they quickly made me see that I can always keep on improving. Now I am always fully-booked, and I have my pick of projects. I know I wouldn’t be who I am today without their steady guidance.

Being an artist is difficult, especially if you don't know anyone in the industry. Thankfully, I enrolled in JRP's courses, and I learned a lot about the industry's in’s and out’s. I also participated in their auditions, and I got to meet a lot of interesting people.

I used to cry on cue, but JRP taught me how to weep with real emotions. That was a constant criticism I heard from my previous auditions. I never understood how my tears were "emotionless," with JRP, they not only taught me to act better, but they also taught me how to use my emotions to perfect my craft.

JRP instructors are very different from the rest. They don't get tired of explaining concepts even when I seem slow on the uptake, and they taught me that practice does make things perfect. I am now a better actress, and I can wow any panel of judges thanks to my JRP education.

If you want the courage to go after your dreams, then enroll with JRP. They'll gladly equip you with the skills you need to become a better version of yourself. They can help you, whether you're into acting, singing, modeling or you want to improve your personality. Trust me — they have helped me become the person that I am today.

I enrolled my daughter here, and it’s the best money I spent. She is now the star of her drama club, and I am so proud of her. Keep up the good work. I highly recommend their services. Thank you very much.

I enrolled my children here for the summer because they didn't want to do usual camps. Had I known they would take to acting like ducks to the water, then I would've done this sooner! Thank you very much.

They never promised that they’ll give my daughter a job, but they did promise to make her great at modeling. That’s what happened. My Tiana can apply makeup expertly, fluff her hair, and strut as if the street is her catwalk. She also received a few jobs pretty quickly, and I am really glad that I took the risk with JRP.

I was a single mom who was struggling with the bills, but my son really wanted to sing. I cannot afford the lessons, but we saw one ad for JRP, and I said, okay, let's try this one. It worked out even better than I imagined. They offered me a flexible payment plan for something I can afford, and now my son is living his dream.

This is a great academy for those who want to improve themselves. I enrolled my son here because he was getting bullied for being too shy, and I wanted him to become more confident and assertive. Well, JRP helped him get over that pretty quickly. The best part of the experience is he made friends with a lot of people in the program. Now he is very happy and active.

One of the good things about JRP is how transparent they are. My coach says that we have to constantly improve ourselves if we want to be good at what we do, and that's what they did to us. Before JRP I was really shy, and I couldn’t perform well, but now, I can wow any crowd with my energy. If acting doesn’t work out for me, then I Now have the tools to be anything I want to be, even a public speaker!

Investing in JRP is one of the best decisions I have ever made. They are very nice and very professional. My coaches really focused on helping me get over my shyness so that I can perform well. They were upfront that they are preparing me for acting and there is no guarantee of a job after the workshops, but they paid off because I landed my first casting after my with them.

There were Fashion Commercial Print workshops, and our coaches taught us how to pose and to maximize our assets so that our flaws are less visible. I also had bad posture from when I was growing up, and JRP also corrected that so I can walk straight on the catwalk. Definitely money well-spent.

You can learn a lot about modelling by watching YouTube, but the workshops given by John Robert Powers really helped me to become a professional model. I learned how to do my makeup and hair, so you are prepared anytime. This is a great academy if you are serious about wanting to become a star.

Megan was great, she was able to answer all of my questions and concerns and made me feel very comfortable. She responded to me quickly and made me feel like I was not alone through this tough time I'm going through.

I first contacted John Robert Powers because I thought they could help get auditions for my daughter. However, I realized that it is more than that. They teach you how to successfully go through an audition so you don’t make a mess out of your auditions. Through their help, my daughter has successfully scored two modeling gigs, and a small role in a local show.

JRP fulfilled my child’s dream of becoming an actress. Since she was young, she would act in front of the TV with my hairbrush as a microphone. Through JRP’s workshops, my child bloomed and became quite the performer. She just got accepted into her first role, and she couldn’t stop thanking me for the opportunity. Thank you John Robert Powers!

If you want a life of sequins and glitter, then enroll your child in John Robert Powers. I had timid 10-year-old twins who did not want to go to summer camp or sports camp. So, I enrolled them here. They loved their workshops and are looking forward to doing more at JRP.

I first signed up my 13-year-old with JRP to help her get over her stage fright. I didn’t expect her to love acting, but she surely took to it quickly! She grew so much; she joined the drama club at school and is now a little diva. She now stars in school plays thanks to JRP.

John Robert Powers has truly empowered my child. I signed up for a year’s worth of acting classes, and after a year, she has grown to become a beautiful and powerful performer. She can act, is very comfortable to sing and dance, and can strut on the runway like she owns it. Great training ground for aspiring talent!

I started with John Robert Powers because I had difficulty expressing myself. My Mom signed me up with them, and after a few months, I was talking as well as my peers. When I became a little older, I wanted to act, so I signed up with them as well. I am the performer that I am today because of them.

John Robert Powers won’t directly give you a job, but they helped prepare me for a lot of auditions, and through that, I got a lot of callbacks and castings. When I first started, I couldn’t act my way out of a bag. Now I can wow the companies I am auditioning for and charm anyone.

I first went to John Robert Powers when my son said he wanted to be in an advertisement. They invited us for an audition and during the process, coached my son how to perform. He went home a very happy boy and I decided that it’s a worthy investment if it could make my kid more confident.

John Robert Powers is the best acting school I’ve ever attended. I have been acting since I was three, and they have been with me every step of the way. They’ve taught me how to properly act in auditions and also how to improve. I wouldn’t be the actor that I am today without their help—and today I am a part of big campaigns from big names!

I found JRP while browsing the Net for acting classes for my 8-year-old daughter. I’d like her to be with other people, and I feel it will help her overcome her shyness. She’s a talented actress in front of my phone camera, but she’s terribly shy when she knows somebody else is watching her. I wanted to put away that weakness, and upon discovering John Robert Powers, I was intrigued by their claims and success stories. I was right to enroll her. My daughter has been improving day by day.
