Angelique Rivera 
Actor (SERIES REGULAR ON AMERICAN CRIME)
JRS was the first acting studio in LA that I stepped into and now there is no looking back! John and his TA’s really know what there doing because they’ve all done it and are still doing it! Learning from working actors has catapulted me into one in only 6 months time! John has taught me so much more than acting and because of that I have not only grown as an actor but as a human being as well. John makes himself readily available to his students, which is unheard of at a lot of other studios in town. His commitment to his students and his drive to see us all succeed is unparalleled. As a young actor, he never treated me as if I were “young” he would push me like everyone else and that’s what every actor needs; to be pushed! The beauty of it all is when he is pushing you to be the best you, it’s done in the most safe and encouraging way. I can’t imagine growing and learning in any other environment. The students, the teachers and John really make this acting studio an absolute JOY to come to class and PLAY. It doesn’t get much better than this. JRS is the BEST!
