Amsterdam · Acting & Improvisation

Rediscover the courage to play.

A studio where adults learn to say yes again — through acting, improv and the freedom to explore. No perfection. No judgement. Just the joy of being fully present.

01 The teacher

Trained at the Aristotle University School of Drama and the Stella Adler Studio in New York, Eugenia has spent a decade making rooms feel safe enough to be brave in.


As children, we say yes without hesitation — we imagine, pretend and play without worrying how we look or whether we're good enough. Somewhere along the way, most of us lose that freedom. Eugenia's whole practice is about getting it back.

Through acting and improvisation, she invites beginners and seasoned performers alike to take risks, make mistakes, and grow through doing rather than judging — building skill little by little through play and genuine connection.

"We are aware of what we are doing, but we are not judging."
02 The approach

Creativity flourishes when people feel safe.

①

A place to explore

This isn't about perfection. It's about exploration — a space where mistakes are celebrated as part of the process and beginners are genuinely welcome.

②

Growth through doing

You learn acting by acting. We take risks, try new things, fail, learn, and try again — developing awareness of our choices without harsh self-criticism.

③

A supportive community

Strangers become an ensemble. Here you'll find a group that feels like family — where play, expression and personal growth happen side by side.

03 What we offer

Three ways to step into the light.

01

Beginner Acting

Step into an acting class for the very first time. Build confidence in front of others, find your creative voice, and discover what it feels like to be fully present — all at your own pace.

Eugenia makes every class something to look forward to all week. She has a rare ability to make everyone feel comfortable being themselves while gently encouraging them to step outside their comfort zone at their own pace. I learned a lot, laughed a lot, and would highly recommend her to anyone curious about giving acting or improv a try.

With a steady, well-thought pace she created an environment where the seven of us felt comfortable to open up. Her authentic, humble approach made us respect her even more as we transformed, little by little, from strangers into an acting team. She builds real skill through play and connection.

An incredible atmosphere where each of us stopped being shy and opened up completely. Beyond acting, we also learned real improvisation techniques. A great professional — thank you, Eugenia ❤️

I loved the course structure — getting to know each other, understanding our strengths and weaknesses, corrected gently yet professionally with an accurate eye. She made us feel safe, playful, and generally like a family.
