To start, I ask that a student come ready to discuss their goals, and the challenges they seek to overcome. This starts with outlining an individualized curriculum to meet the student where they are and help them grow into the artist they want to become, and get results. The methodology behind how I teach is to empower students to be creative, insightful, and confident with themselves and their performance.
Acting is a combination of technique and empathy, and transcending our own limitations and fears is a requirement for great acting.
My approach includes elements of established methodologies, movement work, embracing the mind-body connection, psychology, and literary analysis of the script. This well rounded approach leads to an in depth understanding of the character which inspires credible, and honest character creation.
It is worthy to note that the average age of my student is 40.
My students represent a large range of experience from none at all to several years.
The most important thing is to trust your gut. A good teacher will always have the student’s best interest in mind, and will challenge the student productively to make progress, while encouraging them to know they are able.
I recommend that a student meet their teacher first, either by phone or in person to get a sense of the energy the teacher carries. Compassion, and compatibility of personality is very important for long term success.

I had a one-on-one with Katrina for yoga. Right away she made me feel comfortable and at ease. I have very little experience with yoga, and I’m not flexible, like at all, but she was able to accommodate and tailor the session to my level and needs. I went into the session feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and stressed out, and Katrina helped me let go of all that by the end of our session. I left feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and relaxed. She’s the real deal, and I highly recommended her!
An engaging environment where all feel safe to explore, collaborate, have fun and be creative!!!! Katrina has a way of lifting people up and propelling them forward!! Her unwavering commitment to the arts and to other artists, along with her amazing talent as an actor, writer and director, are beyond praise!!! Thank you for all you do!!!!
It was fun, creative and a truly wonderful experience.
Working with Goodly has been the opportunity and experience of a lifetime. Never before has working with a regional theater company made me feel like the professional I know I am, as Goodly has. Furthermore, Katrina is a highly driven individual with the artistic vision that would rival any of her peers. She is an outstanding teacher, director, and overall human being.
