Theater Practice

"I would not have gotten this far, this quickly, without the careful consideration that was offered me as a young artist. I know that life is incredibly rich and raw. Life will be unbearable at times, yet I was taught to, “still”, and want it NOW. I was taught to live on the brink. I was taught that there is a way to live on the brink and be in charge of life …and be meaningful. And I can be dangerously brilliant, because that is what a virtuoso human being is - daringly, dangerously, beautifully brilliant."   - Alum Christoph Horton Abiel, continuing his creative education in the Professional Actor Training Program of the Drama Division at The Juilliard School. Only 18 students are accepted into this program each year.

Life Practice

"Lucky for me, the life skills that I acquired from Ron's philosophy when I was 16 years old saved my life. He has an extremely unique ability to open a teenager's mind in such a way that her entire life's prospective changes. He has a knack for challenging young people in ways that most adults are too afraid to... and we NEED to be faced with those challenges that force us to grow humanly and artistically. I am 26 years old. Ten years later, Ron's words, lessons and lectures still resonate with me."
