Actor, Jaden Michael was 6 years old when he began training with me.
I'm overjoyed when I see Jaden on Netflix 'Colin in Black & White' or on Prime in 'Harlon Coben's Shelter' or any of his work... I'm so happy for Jaden's success.
I know Jaden Michael will continue to do amazing work. I'm just grateful I was able to be part of some of the most memorable moments.

We love him as 'Marco Polo' in the GEICO commercial!
"I'm always busy with auditions and many times I've reached out to Lisa to help me with my sides. I can be in NYC on the street on my way to an audition and Lisa will make time for my call to discuss the character and details of the audition. She's always insightful and finds gems in the dialogue. Lisa is a passionate, honest acting coach and I highly recommend her to anyone in the industry." M.Mazzeo

"I was approaching the biggest day of my life…the release of my new book “Addict in the House”! My book launch party included a speech- and I was so nervous! I sought out Lisa Regina, for her amazing ability to assist with stage presence, public speaking and adding dramatic inflection to the words. I have to say that she not only gave me the confidence that I needed in my words, but also in myself. Working with Lisa was the absolute best thing I could have done! I highly recommend her to anyone that needs to do public speaking! Thank you so much Lisa!"
I found Lisa Regina when I was enormously confused by the question, “Where do I start.” At 71 years old I was (sort of) retired from my third career as Chief Innovation Officer and VP of a 150-person business consulting company. For 18 years I had worked with business leaders of multinational companies in the US, Canada, Europe, Venezuela, and extensively in Saudi Arabia. (My first career was practicing dentistry and my second was as a university professor and associate dean.) I was now ready to embark on my new career as a professional actor and did not know where to start. Lisa was amazing. We acted together and watched the videotapes. I was accustomed to public speaking and also making music but the camera was a very different and intrusive audience. After about three hours with this woman I had some confidence, some new skills, and complete clarity about my path forward. It was quite amazing.
"Lisa Regina is in a league of her own and always will be. In such a crazy industry, Lisa continues to be dedicated and humble towards her students. One of the many reasons why Lisa stands out against other coaches is her heart. She goes above and beyond to make sure we are pushed to our fullest potential. Her hardworking and determined spirit is truly inspiring. I've never had a coach who has guided me and taught me the way Lisa Regina has." ___ MarissaAnn Rizzitello
Ari Taub, Director - "with a keen eye and understanding of the business, Lisa Regina is a very talented acting coach. She challenges her students in a supportive atmosphere and prepares them for an audition in a film or commercial project. As an acting coach Lisa has compassion and understanding for her students, who are mostly entering the business at a very early age. Her unique style allows her to support each actor but she is not afraid to give criticism when it’s needed. I have watched students with very little acting experience come and take her class and reach levels in their ability that I did not think were possible. She provides a great environment where they can start and develop their work.I highly recommend Lisa Regina for any actor who wants to make it in this business.”
"My clients and I have made some real break throughs in their social skills, speaking skills and labeling emotions. The progress has been very rewarding. My clients build their confidence and most of all, they are enjoying our acting sessions."

I really like giving the actors who study with me a chance to get on-set experience. So whenever I'm filming my own projects, I cast first from my actors.

Lisa gives feedback to actors
YWCA Washington, D.C. - I bring my experience as a keynote speaker for large audiences to my coaching.
Actress Kat Walsh - "I've learned so much working with Lisa. She has a gift for teaching and her success as an actor has made her a master in the craft of directing actors. Lisa helped me to internalize my emotion and use techniques that are impactful on camera. Lisa's years in the industry offers me a chance to also learn about the business of acting. She is a rare find the Philly area and I'm grateful to find a New York City acting coach in South Jersey so I can save my energy for traveling to NYC for the big auditions. If you're a serious actor, you'll want to work with Lisa.
“In my time with Lisa, I have learned valuable training techniques, information, and (perhaps most importantly) attained the confidence I need to get out there and hustle for what I want. She provides excellent, in depth feedback to accentuate your strengths and improve your weaknesses. I would recommend Lisa to anyone looking to improve their skills. It doesn’t even matter your experience level, from being brand new in the business to people with years behind them, Lisa brings the best out of you. I’m looking forward to working with her for a long time.”
