Student Success Stories & Testimonials


Haley Sanchez

Series Regular - Generation (HBO MAX) 

Aaron (Actor's Edge Head Instructor) genuinely cares about his students. He really helps you become the best actor you can be whatever skill level you're at.  Aaron filmed my self-tape for Generation and we worked on my callback together.  In both coaching and his classes Aaron allowed me to see things that I never knew were there. Aaron helps actors understand their character's worlds on a deep level, and ultimately makes sure we never feel like characters at all, but like real, authentic human beings.


Sacha Carlson

series Regular, Julie & The Phantoms (Netflix) 

I would not be where I am today in my career without Aaron. He is a master at his craft and to have him as an acting coach is a privilege. I have learned how to break down scenes, commit to playing characters, to take risks as an actor, and much more including strong audition technique. I’ve always felt comfortable and safe in his classes to be vulnerable and explore my emotions. Through his workshops, he gave me an opportunity to showcase my ability in front of agents in Los Angeles which got me my agent and set me on my path. I owe it to Aaron!


Harmeet Pandey

Series Regular, Diatry of a Future President (Disney+)

Aaron is such an amazing coach.  He coached me and filmed the audition tape for Diary of a Female President.  I feel I got the show, in large part, thanks to Aaron’s coaching, and I continue to coach with him on many of our episodes.  Aaron really helps me bring characters to life and to discover the potential in every moment of a script.  After our first day working together I knew he is probably the best coach I have had.  Whenever I get coached by him I nearly always get a callback.  I can tell that Aaron loves doing this and he always has an energy that makes working together a lot of fun. I am very happy I found Aaron and I hope to continue working with him for a long time!
