"Studying acting without Lauren is like climbing Mt. Everest without oxygen! Lauren isn’t a teacher who tells you what to do. She helps you create a deep connection with a character, even though it can sometimes feel uncomfortable. But stepping into that casting office knowing in your gut you have an edge on other actors is priceless.”

“To give someone the ability to create emotions in others and to tell a compelling story is truly a gift. A gift that is given so freely by Lauren in this class. The extreme concentration of talent, from Lauren to her students, has given me the opportunity to grow quickly as an actor and as a person. I have seen myself and others transform in this class. That said, this studio has become much more than a class, but a place where people can be themselves and not only be accepted, but embraced and celebrated. This studio has made me the actor and person I am today. I’m proud to be able to call this studio my home.”

"It's hard to put into words how immensely Lauren has affected my acting! She has enabled me to come at every character differently and with a positive state of mind. Her use of environment is second to none and has transformed my creative process. I'm certain that any actor who has trained with Lauren would agree that you grow just as much as a person as you do as an actor! She opens emotional doors and gives insight that we as humans are often blind to. It's an honor to work with her, and a blessing to have a studio like LPN to call home!"

“If someone would have told me six weeks ago that only a month after auditing Lauren's class I would book my first lead role on a TV show I would have been somewhat skeptical. After the first class, however, I knew I was in the right class. I am grateful for all of the help I've received from not only Lauren, but my classmates as well! This is not just a class, but a life changing experience. I plan to continue for years to come. Thanks, Lauren!! You're the BEST!”

"There was a feeling of pure love and excitement for life that I remember experiencing after winning my first football game and after rehearsing for my first school play; the type of feeling that makes you sit in your car when nobody else is around and scream at the top of your lungs!! This town tries with all of its might to suck those feelings right out of you, leaving artists feeling crushed and lifeless. Lauren brings that feeling of excitement back to me. She makes acting fun and meaningful. She takes a room full of self-conscious, doubt-filled adults, and awakens the 4-year-old genius within us all! I feel truly blessed to have crossed paths with such a beautiful and giving person. Now I can scream in my car again, thank you :)."

"Every time I coach with Lauren, nothing but good comes out of it. She has helped me link every character to some place real to me and I don't feel like I'm pretending. When I walk out of her studio, I feel like I've gotten to know my character better and even myself because she digs so much out of me. All you can be is confident after that. Without her, I don't know if I would have booked 'Ender's Game'. Also, thanks to her, 'The First Family'. Thanks to Lauren, I feel that my career is started in the right place and I love her for that. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Lauren, for all of the help and for opening my eyes."

"I cannot express enough how much Lauren has impacted and thrust my career into light speed. I have so much respect for Lauren, her teaching, and her mentorship. She has taught me how to be spontaneous and demanding of attention on screen. Lauren is a no BS teacher and pushes her student to be the best. That is something every actor needs and deserves in a teacher. I feel more connected to my acting, my process, and myself than ever before. She has taught me to be connected and confident with every character I step to, creating unimaginable depth, rawness, and life with every line. Every time I learn with her in class I have an ah-ha moment. Laurens teaching is not conventional and not like most classes you will find. It is innovative, creative, and overall just fun. I feel every actor deserves a teacher that is attentive, personal, and a strong mentor. Lauren is that and so much more. I am so grateful to have stumbled upon Lauren, not knowing just how impactful she would be in my life and my career."

"Being a part of Laurens studio is one of the greatest blessings I have received in both my life and my career. There is not a single class I don't look forward to because I know Im leaving with profound feelings of progress, fun, and community. I am unbelievably lucky to be included in such an involved and creative environment that is constantly forging new and talented artists. Lauren has been invaluable in my own acting journey and has made a tremendous impact on my growth in too many ways to mentions. Thanks to LPN I have a studio to call home and feel more equipped to take on any challenge in my craft!
I booked a supporting role in A24 horror comedy "Y2K". I couldn't have done it without Lauren as I put into practice her specific techniques learned in class during the audition process and on set. I also booked the role due to her practical career advice that has been extremely beneficial for me in terms of finding representation and getting work."

"Learning how to become a mature actor has been a roller coaster of highs and lows. Since I started working with Lauren I'm more confident in my ability to multi-task and pull all that's possible out of the text. She gets me out of my head so I'm not always as self-conscious and can trust my instincts. One of the greatest things I've learned is to fully envision my environment and then completely take advantage of my physicality within that space. In class, she does not just teach some formula. She knows and cares about all her students and tailors her approach to what each of us needs and how we learn. I'm very happy in her class and am fortunate to be challenged by such a talented group of actors. Lauren makes us work our asses off to get the most out of ourselves. I'm getting better auditions, more callbacks, and enjoying the process."

"I've grown tremendously both as an actor and an individual in working with Lauren... Whenever she coaches me for an audition, I leave the room feeling confident and well-prepared for my scene. Her precision with script analysis, environment work, and ability to get her students to dig deeper are just a few of the many reasons I continue training at this studio. Thanks for always being in my corner, Lauren - you're a great human being and your passion for all of your students and their journey definitely doesn't go unnoticed."

Lauren helped me find the fun in acting; I have so much confidence in my performances which allows me to make creative and interesting choices. Also, the community that she has built has allowed me to make lifelong friends that have been there for me through some very difficult times in my life. You don’t get that at most acting schools.

"I audited several other acting classes for months before meeting Lauren. It was only at her class did I feel it in my gut that this was right for me. Her long-form improv and the level of caliber of her actors is so intimidating. I signed up to study with Lauren right after my audit because I saw her coach her students in an honest, direct and specific yet compassionate way."

"When talking about their acting coaches, many people would say that their coach 'helped create them into the artist they are today', but Lauren is different. Lauren helped me find the artist that was already inside of me. With her, it is always about discovery of truth and self, not creating something from thin air. Lauren uses an array of different methods that are tailored to the individual actor’s needs, not a by-the-book technique that is structured in a way that limits an actor’s potential. She is passionate, deeply cares for all her students, and has an incredible ability to explain vague or difficult concepts in a way that is lucid. She is unlike anyone I have met. I am very grateful to have had Lauren in my life. She has not only helped me strengthen my art to the point of success, but also has been a mentor to me in my personal life. My growth as both a human and an artist has been fueled by Lauren’s mastery."

Lauren has not only helped me expand my understanding of the material we do in class, but she has also helped me to develop discipline and a strong work ethic towards my career. Most of all, she helps me figure out what resonates with me, and how I can use that to strengthen each character I portray. Thank you, Lauren! I love you!"

"Lauren has been with me since the beginning. Every class is a new adventure and a new lesson. I came to L.A. and didn’t know what to expect. I was on a complicated yet exciting adventure. Lauren was there to help me navigate through this industry and taught me how to grow into the actor I am today. She gave me an undeniable confidence in my abilities. She challenges actors to go into undiscovered territory and learn how to embrace your challenges. Lauren isn’t a teacher, she’s family."

"When I first met Lauren I was scared out of my mind, But after a week she was my favorite person to ever coach with. Working with her is like riding a roller coaster for the first time. At first I was so scared to ride it, but then when I finished I had so much adrenaline I just wanted to keep going session after session. Lauren has shown me a different side of acting, and I mean a more honest side. I probably would not know what I was doing if I had never met her so I am thankful for having her around in my career. I truly cannot wait to see what the future holds for our sessions! :)"

She's passionate and committed to her students, creating a level of trust and mutual respect. She's helped me so much and I look forward to where her teachings will take me."
Barbara Reininger
"I began acting classes in 2021 with a local coach in SLC. Each week we did a small scene, Lessac work, etc. I learned the basics.
But, I really started to refine my skill when I started with Lauren in 2023. The zoom classes are amazing. We do improv each week which is a wonderful skill to have, then we go into the scene work. She assigns 2 actors a scene and they work on it together for 6 - 8 weeks. The in-depth study of the character is so beneficial. It brings up so much within me as I create my version of the character. I have truly grown exponentially under Lauren's tutelage."
Joan Ngai
As cliche as this may sound, I don’t even know where to begin with the beautiful human that is Lauren Patrice Nadler. She has honestly been one of the biggest blessings in my life. She has literally changed me as an actor, storyteller, performer, artist, and most importantly as a human being. Lauren truly works in magical ways. I have not met anybody like her. She is truly so knowledgeable, passionate, and extremely generous with the craft. She has always started at a place of truth and vulnerability; she pushes the boundaries and she truly brings out the best parts in all of her students. She is also our biggest cheerleader, always encouraging us, inspiring us, and instilling self-belief. From the moment I met Lauren, to working with her in the classroom and in our privates, she has provided such a safe and beautiful place for me to constantly grow in every way that I can, as an actor and human. Because of her, I was ready and I was able to find and sign to an incredible agent in my hometown in Toronto last year, I’ve gotten the chance to audition for some pretty awesome projects and even get some pretty cool callbacks and recently booked 3 major commercials that I can’t wait to share with everyone. Lauren is one of the best coaches around, she is one of the most genuine human beings you can ever meet. I adore her and will never be able to put into words, how grateful I am for her. I look forward to all the amazing things ahead and to have her by my side is a blessing.

"Since I moved to Los Angeles at 18 years old, I’ve been training at Lauren’s studio. It has become like a second home to me and I’m so grateful for the community and life-long friends that I’ve found here. Lauren has been an incredible, unconditional supporter of my career and personal journey alike, and has taught me more than I ever expected to learn from one single person. She is a gifted and natural teacher who has an impeccable eye for many things that most people would never notice in one’s performances that elevates actors from good to exceptional. I have an extremely fun and productive experience each time that I’m in class every week, and participating in the wonderful improv show that Lauren has created has taught me invaluable lessons that I can’t imagine I could have learned anywhere else. I know for a fact that I have grown tremendously as an artist through my time at Lauren’s studio."

I broke my barriers and reached new levels from auren’s Improv class. Also from coaching with Lauren numerous times, she has helped me dip deep within myself to find the layers that I never knew I had inside of me. She helped my vulnerability within me shine through.

"Bottom line, one of a kind. I've been to several acting studios, some of which are "BIG NAME" studios, but I must say, none gave me the vibes LPN does. Luckily for me, I didn't just find a studio that challenges me every week and allows me to explore and expand my talent. I found a home. There's a lot of love and support at LPN and it all formulates from the passion, nurture, knowledge, and love we get from not only our teacher, but, our friend, Lauren."

"Lauren fearlessly helped bring out emotions in me I never knew existed. I now tackle characters from the girl next oor to gritty risky roles. She's a BS-meter. Lauren hears and sees lies, crutches and tricks that actors use as they happen. She not only spots them, but helps you delve into why you are using them and what youa re not doing to tell te truth. That relization is priceless. As is Lauren!"

Lauren has this innate ability to find each individual's strengths and tailors specific techniques to help them grow and succeed. Lauren has not only taught me how to connect with a character in a positive and strong way, but she hastaught me how to create and write a story, how to listen and be extremely present in the moment while performing, and there is no limit to what I can do and achieve. I LOVE LPN Studios and I am so grateful to have found a community that has only helped further my career."

She has a way of inspiring insane and goofy creativity all the way through to thought-provoking and deeply moving work. I know I am a better actor and person for being a part of her class”
Reza Breakstone
BelVita Breakfast Biscuits, Optimum Phone
“When we fail to pay attention to the details of the truth, such as how to honestly greet a significant other, or look around an apartment we just entered, or even dial a phone, she holds us accountable. That makes for a more aware actor; an actor who is paying attention and is in the moment. In essence, Lauren is teaching us how to be a consummate professional. Which is what I came to L.A. to be--a true pro.”
Angie Dick
Forgotten Evil, Flight 42
"I feel very fortunate to have found a coach like Lauren. She has the uncanny ability to really help you dig within yourself to bring each character off the page.

Mariel de la Mora

“Lauren is incredibly intuitive. She has pulled up events and emotions in my life that I had long put away. She does this so effortlessly, then helps you enter into the skin of the character. Once there, you feel secure enough to keep adding layers and ultimately let loose in the audition room. Thank you Lauren for being so supportive and encouraging, and for making sure I am continuously truthful and grounded. You are truly magical!!”
Alexa Guiffre
Major Crimes, Mixology
“I have audited over 20 classes in LA, and none of them even come CLOSE to the experience and knowledge you gain from Lauren's class. Within a month of my first coaching session, I booked my first role on television. Between the constant support & encouragement from your classmates, and Lauren's “no bullshit” passionate attitude, it is impossible to not improve and succeed with your craft. This acting studio is truly the best kept secret in LA.“
Tye Edwards

“When I met Lauren I was raw, having only sketch and improv experience. She took my comic ‘bag of tricks’ and helped mold me into a more complete actor and person. Because of Lauren, I began to trust myself and grow in ways I didn’t even know were possible. Her guidance has been eye-opening and invaluable.” ​
Brian Balzerini
Rosewood, Twisted, GLEE, Perks of Being a Wallflower
“Lauren offers what very few teachers are able or willing to give.

You CANNOT travel this road alone and having Lauren on your team provides you a teacher, mentor, and friend you will need for every step of the way.”

She is someone who has extensive experience in the industry, knows who's casting what and what their offices are like and is AMAZING at directing actors in a way that is both fun, loving and creates results."

“We have become completely obsessed with conforming to 'what Hollywood wants' and we forget that it is our essence as a person and our creativity as an actor that books us the job. A good coach does not tell you 'how you should sound' or 'where to take a beat' or mark an arrow to where you need to 'look sad'. Too many coaches/teachers out there fill our heads with surface. Too many of young Hollywood's talent pool are learning how to LOOK like they are acting rather than just being. Working with Lauren I have given myself permission to BE."
Renee Kay

Acting is a craft. It’s an art. And furthermore, it’s quite personal. When you study with an acting coach, that prep time can be the difference between a solid performance and your best performance. You need someone who knows how to get immediate honest work out of you. Someone who gets you so dialed in with the material that it is just in your bones. I searched for that coach for years, and then I met Lauren Nadler. Lauren strengthens your strengths and cuts the things that aren’t working. Her method is bullet proof if you focus and listen to her. She always helps me get to the truth and I leave her feeling ready for whatever is thrown my way. From morning to night, she is always available for her actors and gives you 100% of her whether or not she has slept the night before!! She’s the real deal!! Thank you Lauren, for everything. Let’s keep killing it!! Love you!!!

"[Best Acting Performance at the Austin Comedy Film Festival] wouldn't have been possible without having discovered Lauren's class. I felt sharp, in control, and confident. I went from hoping I could do a job to knowing I could."

"Taking classes with Lauren gave me a bigger understanding of what acting is and what I am capable of. Her classes boosted my confidence and gave me courage to start auditioning. Without her I would not have grown into my craft and self as I did."

"There was a feeling of pure love and excitement for life that I remember experiencing after winning my first football game and after rehearsing for my first school play; the type of feeling that makes you sit in your car when nobody else is around and scream at the top of your lungs!! This town tries with all of its might to suck those feelings right out of you, leaving artists feeling crushed and lifeless. Lauren brings that feeling of excitement back to me. She makes acting fun and meaningful. She takes a room full of self-conscious, doubt-filled adults, and awakens the 4-year-old genius within us all! I feel truly blessed to have crossed paths with such a beautiful and giving person. Now I can scream in my car again, thank you :)."

"Every time I coach with Lauren, nothing but good comes out of it. She has helped me link every character to some place real to me and I don't feel like I'm pretending. When I walk out of her studio, I feel like I've gotten to know my character better and even myself because she digs so much out of me. All you can be is confident after that. Without her, I don't know if I would have booked 'Ender's Game'. Also, thanks to her, 'The First Family'. Thanks to Lauren, I feel that my career is started in the right place and I love her for that. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, Lauren, for all of the help and for opening my eyes."
