Amy Jo Berman

Amy’s the best in the business. All her advice is not only spot on but if you do the work, it gets results.

I watched The audition ninja online. That was awesome I was able to watch it at my own leisure on my own time. I got so much information out of it, I found out how many traps I was falling into at auditions it really made me think, very awesome. I loved all the information.

I always thought I was missing something when it came to auditioning. I was right. After just one, single seminar with Amy, I was able to adjust my approach to auditioning. She gave me an awareness that is invaluable – A paradigm shift that changed my entire auditioning experience.
I have so many friends who are actors and who are stuck! I feel compelled to share the secret. Amy is the secret. I seriously had the best audition I ever had after listening to Amy’s Pilot Season seminar. The information I learned will be applied to every audition I ever have from now on. In fact, the tools I walked away with can be applied to every day life. Amazing stuff!
What’s really amazing to me is that getting better, getting out of your way and breaking through can be such an easy fix. Really practical, easy to follow and easier to implement tools and rules.
As actors we have to continually make investments in ourselves, in our careers; to get better, to improve, to add credits, to grow and of course to be successful. From head shots to classes to seminars and webinars. From coaching to career counseling. If you are someone who invests in yourself or who wants to get better, check out Amy’s website and investigate what she’s all about. Check out her free videos on YouTube or get into one of her seminars and get coached by the best in the business. I’m so fortunate to have discovered her.

Amy, I just love you:) I am actually a walking example of how this really does work. No matter what I am going through in my life, my thought process makes all the difference in how I feel about it, how others react to me, and what is drawn to me… like attracts like, it really does. Is it sometimes hard to keep that positive state of being, sure, but, I have found the more you not only practice it, but LIVE it, the more you really do feel that way and it starts to become second nature… it gets easier. When you live in this state, a more positive flow of energy comes to you without even having to work at it as hard… such as opportunity, a better relationship, better job, etc. Amy gives us some really great tools to use and apply throughout our daily lives, and it works! That’s why I listen to CFF in my car over an over again… I miss or forget things and it reminds me. I have little post-​it stickers all over my wall in front of my desk at home with all of Amy’s little sayings and ‘questions’, as well as other positive quotes I love. I look at them ALL the time as a reminder, and it instantly makes me feel better if I am having a moment. In these last several months I have had more success in such a short amount of time then ever before. I just was offered a role in a Pilot today! WOOHOO! I must say, out of all the classes I have taken over the years, Amy’s have been some of my absolute favorites:)

I really appreciate Amy’s approach to her online classes. They are a great combination of practical advice and uplifting messages about being an artist and getting out of your own way.
I’ve purchased several of her online classes and have loved every one of them. If you are looking for classes that allow you to access them again and again, that challenge your thinking in new ways, take these :)

I’m a better actor because of Amy’s Audition Polish.
I’ve had several audition polish sessions with Amy and I’m a much better actor because of it. She sees things in the script that I don’t so I make better and more interesting choices, works on my technique and if necessary fast drills to get me out of a pattern — all in one session!
I’ve taken other courses with Amy as well and as a result, my career is on a much faster track. So grateful.

I have been acting for many years, and at this point, teach classes of my own. It has not been easy to find a coach adept enough to catch all «the little things» which can cost or bag you the job. How lucky I am, then, to have encountered Amy Jo Berman.
She is a master at addressing the details which separate «the men from the boys» in terms of auditions and how to nail them. In addition, she has a rare awareness of the psychological underpinnings which sabotage many actors — and the keys to unlocking these gateways toward success. Within a week of enrolling in her Pilot Season Domination course, my energy had shifted so radically I was offered work I hadn’t even auditioned for! Amy Jo is an invaluable ally: warm, direct, and brilliant at orchestrating quantum leaps in actors at any point in their careers.

I’m not a newbie, not naïve, no stars in my eyes, kid. I’ve been in the business for a while, acting classes for years, in showcases, attended workshops, seminars, read books, attend plays, been on stage, on TV, feature films, commercials, but– I just found myself mentally dead in my tracks. I was stuck. And then I found Amy Jo Berman. I admit it, I was more than skeptical. Like I said– I’ve been to many workshops and seminars… it’s a jungle out there– so beware. However, so many people had great experiences with her, I decided to dip my toe in the water to see what I could see. Understand this– it isn’t your standard classroom, with just the does and don’ts, insider tips and opinions and info you can look up on-​line. Amy takes you to a place where you can stop your self-​destructive thinking– quickly. She’ll show you how to end your self-​sabotaging belief system and then recreate a new belief system that will serve you, not only in this business but also for the rest of your life. And then show you how to move forward with powerful confidence, direction and possibilities. Amy brings information and facts from the inside of the industry, she’s someone who was there (VP @ HBO Casting). She puts everything on her website for future reference, not to mention she threw in a freebee Q&A session just because she felt it could help us.
Even my family and friends have noticed a positive change in me, a more creative energy and focused drive, no more negative-​complaining, no more stinkin’ thinking. It’s not a coincidence that I’ve been experiencing some amazing changes in my life and career since attending Amy Jo Berman’s Pilot Season Domination. I highly endorse her. Thank you Amy, from the bottom of my heart. You know the secrets, thanks for sharing them with us. Oh, and I’ve got a super support group because of her as well.

Love love love this woman! She has made an enormous difference in the way I approach EVERYTHING in my career. Her wealth of knowledge and expertise coupled with her passion to help actors succeed in their careers was a game changer for me. What Amy teaches goes beyond auditioning skills. She teaches us to be the whole package, inside and out.
She breaks everything down to create the mind set of a successful working actor. As an audition coach, she has the ability to dig deep and extract a level of performance out of her actors that we never knew possible. Every single one of her webinars are insightful and inspiring. She’s brilliant.
I moved to LA from NY and I was completely overwhelmed with how to go about breaking into Hollywood. I floundered, I procrastinated and I fretted for an entire year.
Then I met Amy Jo Berman.
I now go about my job as an actor with ease and confidence, all thanks to the tools that she teaches. I would have never been able to figure this stuff out on my own. Now, everything is a joy… acting, auditioning, networking, my entire career. Clearing all that clutter in my head has made all the difference, leaving a freedom and openness to create without judgment.
I highly recommend her both as an audition coach and a marketing/​business guru. And she’s from HBO. The pinnacle of television. How does it get any better than that?

I am new to LA and needed guidance. While searching for the person with the best expertise, I found Amy Jo Berman. I spoke to other firecrackers in the industry, however I did not feel they were the right move. I listened to a few free webinars with Amy and knew right away that her beliefs and knowledge in the industry far surpassed her colleagues.
Amy has helped me not only in my career, but in my quality of life. Before I was embarrassed to tell people I was an actor due to their judgements and limitations they placed on me. Now, after 2 of Amy’s electrifying classes and an in depth Career Consultation, I am reworking myself to have that acting career I have always felt in my soul.
I would recommend Amy highly to anyone in the business. She is very approachable and willing to help. I am looking forward to showing the industry what talents I have to offer and taking my first step of many on the red carpet.

Amy is an enormous wealth of information and support.
We all know there is not a shortage of coaches in LA; what sets Amy apart for me is the fact that she was VP of Casting at HBO for 14 years! Not a small feat.
It’s pilot season right now so lots of us are running around from audition to audition, and I can tell you from experience that there is a HUGE difference in the auditions that I get to coach with her and the ones I don’t, that’s not just my perception, it is also reflected in the Casting Director’s feedback that my manager gets from them.
Sometimes I’ll prep an audition prior to going to Amy for coaching and I think, yup I got this ones, and once we start coaching she opens up possibilities in the performance that never occurred to me, she helps me see things in a new light and that’s great and good in and of itself, but the best thing I like about it is that I learn a new skill, a new way of looking at the material and auditions in general.
I mean it’s great to have someone direct you but what happens when they are not there to direct you, you can’t couch every single audition, but with Amy you learn a skill which helps you grow as an artist and that is a very rare thing to find.
Highly recommend you coach with her if you get a chance and definitely get plugged into her online trainings.

No matter how prepared you are or how good what you’re doing is, she’ll make it better and ensure you leave feeling ready for anything. She’s honest, warm, passionate, professional and genuinely cares. She’s the best!

I met with Amy Jo Berman on the 15^th. I really needed someone to give me the ANSWERS to being a successful mature actress in Hollywood, U know, someone who’s on my side? Amy Jo Berrman was on my side. She gave me the tools to help myself as well as some great advice. Thank U, Madam.
