Fay’s Coaching Approach

Technique with Emotional Intelligence

Fay teaches actors how to connect their emotional systems to action and behaviour. Through BEAT™ and Meisner-inspired exercises, she helps actors break patterns, increase responsiveness, and create characters with depth.

Real-Time Precision

No vague feedback. Fay offers immediate, specific adjustments that change the performance in the moment. Actors describe this experience as “game-changing” and “the missing piece of my training.”

Psychology Meets Performance

With an academic background in psychology, Fay understands how emotional life, trauma, and identity shape performance. She teaches actors how to access emotion safely and consciously.

Screen & Stage Expertise

Her work bridges theatre presence with screen precision — teaching actors how to calibrate emotional truth for both mediums.

“Transformative.”

“The deepest acting training I’ve ever had.”

“A method that finally makes emotional access consistent.”

Fay taught me not how to ‘act’, but how to feel deeply, let myself be affected, and how to trust the truth. It has changed my world and I’ve completely fallen in love with the craft like it’s the first time again.ADS has completely opened my eyes to the artistry of what acting really is. I had completely misunderstood it for 27 years! I’m more passionate and in love with acting than I’ve ever been and it’s all thanks to Fay and ADS. I am eternally grateful.

Fay has a wonderful way of always explaining with examples, making her exercises clear and accessible for everyone. She is patient, incisive and direct – but without loosing any important warmth or humour. This allowed me to get further in less time and took ego and self doubt out of the equation. I’d recommend anyone to take a class with her. A session with Fay is an assurance that you’re in safe hands, with someone who has your best interests at heart.

Simon Lyshon

Actor

Fay Beck has been one of the strongest influences in my life as of recent. Her teachings and ideologies really helped me understand the craft in a way that is unique to her. She’s a great, fair and patient teacher who takes great pride in her work. I’ll be forever grateful for her guidance and teachings and couldn’t recommend anyone more!
