"A coaching with Amy is a must for anyone who wants to better
his/her craft! I've worked with Amy on everything from pop/rock to musical
theatre to opera; no matter what the material, Amy finds a way to make it
relatable to my own personal experiences so that my acting choices are honest, believable,
and innovative. She has a great eye for
picking out my strengths and building upon them, as well as helping me figure
out how to try new things and grow as an actor.
Her fun and friendly nature make it easy to find truthful
interpretations of a song. Since working
with Amy, I now have a better sense of who I am as an actor and what I can
offer. As a result, I have also noticed
a significant increase in callbacks/jobs!"

"My daughter Carly has worked with Amy for the past 5 years. She has prepared her for Broadway, Off-Broadway, regional and movie auditions. Amy has helped Carly be prepared and confident going into her auditions. She has helped Carly interpret audition material and make it unique and authentic. Amy is a gifted teacher. She is able to challenge Carly and make her feel comfortable during all their coaching sessions."

"As a dancer, I came to Amy for coaching with a narrow amount of experience. Her genuine spirit and contagious attitude relaxed my nerves immediately and we dove right into work! I feel brave when I work with Amy. She possesses the unique ability to create a collaborative environment full of possibility, space for making mistakes, and room for growth. In doing so, she pulls the best out in me, knowing innately just how much more to challenge. She guides with true craftsmanship and an honest voice. Besides all that I am learning from her and the confidence I’m building, I am having so much damn FUN! I smile for hours after every session. "

"I can honestly say that working with Amy Griffin has changed my life. Without her, I would've never been able to go through the nightmarish college auditions and get into a prestigious program like I did. She's kind, honest, and a very talented woman. Her experience in the acting business has given me a huge amount of guidance over the years. She's not just a teacher to me, but a friend. Anyone would be very lucky to study with her."

"Amy is a large part of why I decided to pursue acting. She introduced me to the exciting world of theatre at 14, and was my acting mentor throughout high school. Without Amy and her coaching, I would not have been accepted to Emerson College's performing arts program. She is so insightful and a fantastic collaborator. Her engaging approach to the work is what enabled me to live in the moment and interpret the underlying intention of my character."

"Working with Amy is an absolute joy! She
has a real talent for finding hidden gems that you can add to your performance,
while still allowing you to make them completely your own. She makes
every session enjoyable and really creates an atmosphere that allows you to be
comfortable trying anything. Working with Amy has allowed me to become a
better actress and made me more confident entering any audition situation."
