Brad Heller

Brad Heller is an American acting teacher, and founder of The Heller Approach acting studio in Los Angeles, CA. He is also an actor, writer, and director. Heller was mentored by original Group Theatre member Don Richardson, who was the only group member to say, "The Method isn't what acting is about." The technique Heller developed, known as The Heller Approach, is primarily based on Muscle memory. The approach is quite different from Method Acting, which requires you to delve into your personal emotions. Heller's technique uses the same philosophy as that of an athlete. Heller's acting technique also helps actors deal with stage fright and performance anxiety.
