About Adna
I have been teaching Acting for 15 years, of which the last 10, as a UCL qualified post-16 Lecturer in Performing Arts. I have taught at the Actors Centre, the UK's leading professional actors' development organisation, at a dozen of West End venues, including Pineapple, Danceworks and most of the leading theatres, as well as at the FE colleges, delivering the BTEC Diplomas in Acting and preparing young people for the entry into the HE and Drama Schools. I have 20 years of experience as a professional Actress, including the performances with The Royal Shakespeare Company, Royal Court Theatre, The Almeida, Southwark Playhouse, Riverside Studios, Cardboard Citizens and many others; TV Drama appearances in Prime Suspect, Doctors and The Bill and, more recently, voiceover work on the audio books for the RNIB, Penguin and my own company Sharp Eared Owl, including the work on the award-winning trilogy Sleeping Giants.

Adna has been teaching my daughter Drama for over a year now.
She is a skilled, highly professional facilitator who is especially gifted in ensuring each child reaches their full potential. Her lessons are fun, engaging and brimming with enthusiasm.
My daughters confidence and and public speaking skills have blossomed since she started the lessons.
I would not hesitate to recommend Adna for group or 1 to 1 sessions. I have the utmost confidence in her skills and professionalism.I can't speak highly enough of Adna. She is really engaging and has always made me feel comfortable. She seems to just under where I need to focus and has a huge bank of ideas to help me be better at any performance. I really enjoyed working with her. I am hopeful that what she has taught me I will be able to share with others on screen or in theatre someday!
Adna instantly takes any nerves away by making sure you have fun and feel comfortable. In one hour, she managed to lift my prepared monologue and confidence to a much higher level. I would strongly recommend Adna if you are looking to audition for drama school, or even if you just want to act for fun or feel more confident performing or public speaking.
I could not recommend Adna highly enough! She is absolutely fantastic.
Adna's feedback and assistance with my acting and monologues have been invaluable.
Adna has an incredible way of teaching you things and tit-bits in a way that doesn't feel rigid. You don't realise until the end of the session how much you have actually absorbed and learnt because Adna makes it feel so natural.
You will always have fun with Adna and relax in a way that is so vital to get the best out of your acting.
Adna has an incredible skill in getting you to think about your characters and pieces in a different way and helps add to your toolbox in a way you would have not probably thought about on your own.
I wouldn't even hesitate to book Adna - you're missing out by not!
Adna is an incredible teacher. She
imbued my 9 year old son with
a tremendous boost of confidence
during the lockdown when the low
levels of social interaction were
beginning to really crush his spirits.
He is preparing for Reading for
Performance and after only a couple
of lessons, he started showing new
and expressive facets of himself that
I'd never seen before. His motivation
increased for everything, including
remote curriculum tasks.
It's a wonderful thing - thank you so much Adna!View more recommendations

Details
The initial consultation of up to half an hour is free. This is just the preliminary opportunity to say hi and get the initial idea of what you want and need to work on, so no time is spent on the introductions in your first paying lesson. Once arranged, the lessons are paid for in advance. If you need to make a cancellation, I can reschedule, as long as you let me know a week in advance.
