Truly one of the most insightful and immersive classes i have ever been a part of. Sam is truly a gem of a teacher and he will push you positively for you to realise your potential. He is all about substance and craft. So if you are serious about the craft and your career do join his class. Highly recommended

Before I took this class, I read a review on Reddit that said the class was incredible, but the room was cold, and classmates did not support each other. That review is wrong.

I took the class myself as a new member, so here’s my review. It is great. The room was a normal temperature ????. The people were lovely.

This was my first experience with Method. Sam knows what he’s talking about. He is very good at what he does. Sam is generous with his knowledge and goes out of his way to make this class exist. You’ll see how effective this is when a scene is redone after doing the work. Night and day difference.

I found both new and existing members supportive. The critiques are honest and compassionate. The reality is that no one in this room can be bullshitted. You will be called out if you try. You will be pushed to grow. Everyone wants you to grow.

I’ll add that the work is not "easy" emotionally; you will have to be willing to face it. But if you're reading this, you're probably ready. Beyond improving my acting, it made me realize I’d been living my life asleep. That was worth the class alone. Thank you, Sam.

As much as I know about acting, I would advise anyone willing to do acting to do this class, regardless of where they are at in their careers, or even if they are beginners.
The reason is that in the room (...where the class is being held), acting is what I believe it has to be - truthful. And "... in imaginary given circumstances". And if you doubted if you could do achieve that, or how you can be "correctly present" in a scene or something like that - Sam has got the bundle of keys to "open some doors for you" and thus help you get there.
He is an excellent teacher, because he has the capacity and experience to deal with all sorts of situations and cases. In life, and hence dramatically as well. Which brings me to the point that in this room you will be given the chance to evolve both as an actor and as a human being.
I can talk a lot more, but will have to become specific, and that's something that I think what the class is for - the exercise room is exactly the place to do that. ACTing is about being active, I think, so if you are, this class can serve you as the perfect platform to make the next steps in your life as a creative human being, actor, and an artist. And you can end up with more confidence when taking on your next acting task, just as I did.
I do advise actors to consider doing this class, regardless of their past experience - from first-timers to people with years of experience. Don't forget you can always contact the school for more information. They do reply to your questions.

I am new both to Method and to acting in general, having entered the classes as a writer/director. I found this space that Sam has created for actors and other creative practitioners rewarding on many levels - it was challenging, stimulating, encouraging and energising. There are many regular members have been returning to class for over 10+ years, which is a testament to Sam’s impressive gifts as a creative educator and facilitator.

It was deeply inspiring to watch other class members work, play and explore their instruments through dedicated scene study, technique and improv. Learning and practicing the basic techniques together in a group (basic relaxation and sense memory) has offered me a toolkit to develop and explore my own creativity in ways that I could not have imagined prior to joining. Sam and the class members were generous, honest and forthcoming in giving and receiving feedback during scene study and I learned so much not only as an actor or writer but as a human being in relationship with others. The way the classes are structured is genuinely geared towards empowering the actor and their instrument and I felt an increased sense of agency and autonomy having competed my first unit.

My first month of Method classes was a rich and rewarding experience and I cannot recommend this space enough to anything looking for creative fulfilment, regardless of their preferred medium or previous training. Sam is deeply dedicated to the art and craft of acting and this energy radiates throughout the space during the month intensive. I am very grateful to have found a space in which creativity and craft can blossom through an emphasis on process rather than outcome - so vital for nurturing artists and yet so rare to find these days.

A google review cannot articulate well enough how much this class has affected my acting in such a good way. It has deepened my relationship with my craft to a degree where it is much more than just about getting gigs, a career or becoming the best actor in the world nor is it about your talent. Which kind of paradoxically makes you a better actor ;)
Sam has impacted me greatly and I am forever grateful for his spark that ignited the forever journey of the discovery of my instrument.

This was my first month of Method Acting with Sam, and overall, I truly appreciated the class. It has not only helped me express myself more effectively and taught me how to relax, but the class also introduced me to a wealth of resources—books, movies, interviews, and plays—that I can learn and draw inspiration from.

I’ve always known I have a passion for acting, but I didn’t know how to fully utilise my instrument. From the very first lessons, watching the other students work on their scenes, it became clear that this technique works. Everyone’s work had a level of naturalness and skill that was inspiring, which speaks volumes about Sam’s ability to teach and convey the principles of the craft.

There wasn’t a single moment of work that felt amateur or unnatural. Some of the conversations in class leaned more political than I’d personally prefer, and I didn’t always agree with Sam’s viewpoints. However, I see that as a natural dynamic, and I’m able to separate my personal opinions from the knowledge and education I sought from this class.

I’m grateful for the experience and look forward to continuing my journey.

Been looking for a training environment like this for a LOOONG time.

Sam Rumbelow is one of the most committed teachers I've come across. He has a holistic, personable, and intuitive approach toward each individual student.

There are members of the class who have been attending as long as 15 years. This not only reflects the type of actor Sam's class retains but also goes to show the value the studio gives. As a newbie, I'm constantly inspired and motivated by the work of my peers.

I've been training for 7 years, and this studio proves different. It is one of the healthiest environments I've found for true growth to happen.
Everyone in the class is able to explore their potential effectively, regardless of where they are at, industry player or just starting out.

Words can't describe how lucky I feel to have found this space.
