This place is so clearly a scam, the oldest trick in the book. They are going to try to rush you into an enormous payment for their classes by saying they only have a couple spots left. If you want to put your child in acting classes the best studio in Hollywood is probably the Margie haber studio , it’s cheaper and actually feeds you real acting skills rather than just trying to desperately scam you for your money.

I enroll my daughter Vanessa in Los Angeles Barbizon in August of 2019. I asked if they could transfer her to San Francisco with the scholarship dance class that she has and I was told that the scholarship for dance was transferable. We finally got to get transferred to San Francisco it took a month for us to get a schedule we got the schedule all the way out to December of 2019 of this year. When we went to our first class last week in San Francisco we met with director Samantha and the dance instructor Jessica. Samantha then asked us if we wanted to transfer to the one in Sacramento because we

My daughter has improved so much in her confidence!!! She’s more outspoken, she has made new friends and she’s not afraid to speak her mind anymore. I love no matter what she’ll always be a member and anytime she needs help with couching and developing, she can always comeback without paying a fee. Barbizon staff is always welcoming! I would highly recommend this Barbizon school! Thank you so much, my daughter loves you guys!

Barbizon has been a fun and learning experience. It definitely has given my daughter a boost of confidence to her sassy ways 😁. The ladies have been professional and polite thus far I have no complaints. Hopefully this will open other windows and opportunities in the future for my daughter. Fingers crossed

We have been taking our daughter to Barbizon of Hollywood for about 4-5 months. She absolutely loves it and has learned so much. At the beginning she was very shy to talk in front of people. Barbizon has helped her overcome her shyness. Mrs.B is an amazing coach. She is very professional and wants the best for the students.

Barbizon is absolutely excellent! I'm an acting student there and so far my experience has been very great and memorable. The classes that are provided are very helpful in building your skills as an actor and have value that no other place can have. The staff and teachers of Barbizon are so friendly and helpful. You get honest feedback on your performances, great tips, and you learn new ways of doing things! You're classmates become like family and you meet interesting new people everytime. I don't regret joining Barbizon for a second. They've helped me develop my skills and showed me how to get

Hi my name is Linetth Rivera and I would like to say that Barbizon has been such an amazing experience for me.I My instructors have been very friendly, explained everything well, and gave me many tips that I will take with me in my future. It has changed me in so many positive ways, I am now confident in myself and I don't get as shy to go up on stage or to talk to anybody like I used to. I met a lot of friendly people there and had so much fun. I am extremely thankful for this opportunity. Thanks Barbizon!

Before I got into Barbizon of Hollywood I had a different life experience.I have to say it's incredible the changes I have made. i started back a couple months ago and I am proud to say that i have progressed so much. the instructors there make it very enjoyable and are able to take us out of our comfort zone. through out the time i have been here i have learned better communication skills, how to walk on the runway, our posture which is very important. we ha also learned how to over come our fears in front of people & much more. i most definitely recommend everyone to try Barbizon of Hollywood

I really loved my experience at Barbizon, it was a life changing experience for me. I really grew as a person, aside from the acting and modeling. They showed me how to manage myself outside of those aspects, from the way I present myself, to writing a resume, and so on. I truly learned a lot that has benefited me in the real world. Many of the things I learned at Barbizon have really came in hand now that I'm in college, employed, and still continuing this acting thing. So it's something I really appreciate that I gained from my experience at Barbizon.
