our Philosophy
The ATK Acting Intensive is for actors who are ready to stop trying to “be good” and start doing real work.
This is not a workshop built around tricks, shortcuts, or surface-level notes.
It is built around the work. The real kind.
The kind that demands discipline. The kind that requires vulnerability. The kind that makes you better—if you let it.

Train with Geoffrey Blake
Geoffrey’s approach is rooted in the foundational techniques developed by Lee Strasberg and Stella Adler, while guiding actors to develop a process that is entirely their own.
He does not teach imitation. He teaches ownership.
As an active actor with decades of experience, Geoffrey continues to work alongside both legendary performers and rising talent. He has seen what happens when young actors arrive without fire, discipline, or a real love for the craft.
This work is about bringing that back—so actors do not just book jobs, but build lasting careers.

WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON
This is not a class where you sit, listen, and take notes.
You are working from the moment you walk in.
01
Conversations about the work. What is real. What isn’t. What actors avoid. What actually moves a performance forward.
02
Through relaxation and emotional access, you reconnect with your body and your instrument so the work stops being forced and starts being lived.
03
Memory and imagination exercises develop the emotional depth and specificity that separate surface acting from truthful work.
04
Scene work is where everything is tested. You take risks, get adjustments, and refine your performance in real time.
