SPiN LA

During this sad and life changing time of COVID-19, Society Performers Academy and Joe were right there for our kids. They all stepped in to build classes online ASAP to try to make what looked impossible possible, WOW you guys. Acting, ballet, voice, cold reads, hip hop classes you name it they offered it. Both east coast and west coast to try to put a little normal back into the craziness of this pandemic for everyone especially our kids. A big thank you to Society Performers Academy and Joe Lorenzo. We love you. From all us parents we appreciate you

I honestly felt like I wasted money and time putting my child in this. I was skeptical at first about putting my child in it but read nothing but good reviews. Everything is done via zoom and ok i get it it's covid but 1300 dollars later and a month of zoom classes later plus a showcase with "real talent agents" I have nothing to show for it other then a half $#*! review from a talent agent no call backs and no really worthy of me spending any more money. I would say they are real and they do put you infront of talent. But the basics of headshots making a resume and showing us how to do a self tape can all be googled as well as auditions for things can also be googled save your money any real chance of stardom will not cost thousands

Joe society has been an amazing experience.
All the staff has been so wonderful and Joe is so friendly and has helped us meet with agents and now my son is about to sign with an agent!
I would highly recommend them!

My daughter has been with SPA for awhile now, and I noticed during her rehearsal for the show she cast that she was adept, ready, knew which group she's in and what to do on her Zoom, and was very attentive compared to others. All thanks to the training she received with the SPA. Amazing job!

My experience thus far has been great.

The team is super responsive and readily avaialble to answer all and any questions one may have. The opportunity that they offer and exposure to the agents is a whole other world. These are opportunities that not all kids are getting. These are agents that come as they know Joe and know the quality of talent he has. Like in anything there are levels of growth and experience. Jana is still entry. However, since joining SPA I do see growth in her confidence to perform in front of 100+ people. The coaches are so loving and surprisingly soooo patient. They actually encourage the kids to become better.

Thank you SPA and Team!

We are new to this, but every time I have a question or need help with something Joe and his team (Amy and Brielle) are so quick to respond and don't seem to mind how many questions I have to ask to ensure I'm dotting all the i's and crossing all the t's.
Also, the amount of coaching time and prep time for showcases is great! If you aren't taking full advantage of the talented coaches you are missing out. My daughter has learned a lot in a short time!
Thank you Joe and team for all of the help and here's hoping things go well and we have a long relationship!

We signed up for an open call audition, luckily we were called back along with so many other talented children! It was such a blessing to have Joe, Jay, Byanca, Kila, and Tiffany guide towards the right direction on how to become a STAR. My daughter was allowed a photoshoot, bootcamp, acting class, and last but not least after hard work and dedication, she was able to do an audition for a couple talent managers, And behold! The agency wanted to sign her! We are overwhelmed with gratitude and can not wait to see what the future holds for Heaven. Thank you Society Performers Academy for starting us on the right foot, and god willing we can do major things! Couldnt have done anything without you! Ya'll made this possible.

Don't fall for this crap. It's a huge scam like a pyramid skin is set up to make you funneling money and you don't get nothing in return.
They go from city to city hotel to hotel.
Similar to a pyramid scam but even worse because they're scamming children.

Abigale loved her classes they are the best! The staff is friendly and the coaches are very patient and take time to explain. She loves Society! PS Abigale signed today yay! Thank you Society Perfomers Acadamy!

Society Performers is THE place to be when you aspire to become a young actor! Their coaches are very experienced and give clear & constructive feedback. Their staff is super responsive & helpul, and Joe Lorenzo is just the BEST - He guides you well and is very kind & respectful. My child is in good hands & after just 3 months with them, he has already booked a movie role! We are SO proud of him, and thankful to SPA - You guys ROCK!

This is our daughter's first attempt to step into the acting realm and we couldn't have found a better group of people to work with. We started this journey right before the Corvid-panic, so we have had experience pre-chaos and during and during this whole thing they have remained ever-focused on helping and engaging with us to keep this process moving. Joe and Jenn are simply beyond words - super attentive, knowledgeable, and (best of all to me) approachable. I called Joe "Mr. Lorenz" in my first email communication to him, and he made sure I never did "Mr." again, haha. I like their coaches, and they have an incredible passion for all they do. Joe and all on his team (everyone) makes you feel like family, and they take the time to know your son/daughter. Put your trust in these people, and you won't be let down. This first attempt has been amazing, and that's saying something during these times!

This Academy is amazing! The powerteam behind this organization is amaIng! My son just started training a month ago and he has already learned so much and has impressed us all. If your child is interested in this industry this is the Academy to attend

As an amateur to the whole experience you and your staff was available with an answer for EVERY QUESTION (even when the question was asked a coupleof times LOL!). We was never turned away and welcomed with excitement and superb professionalism. With that I will like to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. My granddaughter Treasure Sermons will never forget this opportunity and the smile that the whole staff put on her face will always be a photo etched in my head and heart

Short review: I would absolutely recommend SPA. We are very happy with the program. If you want to get your kid into the acting industry, SPA is the program you need if you don't have the knowledge or connections.

Long review: I saw an ad on Facebook for a kids acting workshop and thought it would be Cool for my daughter to learn acting. I took her to an open audition at the Hyatt Regency in Princeton, NJ.

The people there were very professional and told us that this was an industry workshop and the kids would be auditioning for talent agents in a showcase at the end. They informed us about how the industry works and warned against paying talent agents up front for representation.

They clearly explained that their role was to prepare the kids to be industry ready professionals which is what the top talent agencies look for when booking new talent. She auditioned, received a call back, and started the program about a week later.

There is a wealth of education provided by Society Performer's Academy. Not only do they teach the children, but they teach the parents too. Joe was always on standby to answer all of my questions. The workshops were taught by real industry actors and models.

They always made it clear that there is no guarantee that a talent agent will pick you. It will ultimately be up to you and your child to do the work. We followed the program and all of Joe's suggestions. She received 2 call backs from talent agencies.

Thank you Society Performer's Academy!

Society preformers academy was the best experience and my daughter life she learn lot and she will definitely we go back next year Joe Lorenzo and Amie are the best team to work with ask family we learn new things and is a new whole world and experience and my daughter life we love and recommend it 100%

My kids have been party of SPA for 6 months and they love it taking acting classes. Joe and Jennifer are awesome teachers. Totally recommend this school.

Jennifer, Jules and Joe are very encouraging so Ethan can succeed!
They are patient and helped him get representation!
We cannot say enough amazing things about Society Performers!

Joe has been AMAZING to work with and Austin has come so far since starting out with them! His teachers are knowledgeable and give great feedback on what the actors need to improve on! I would HIGHLY recommend SPA to anyone who's looking to start a career or continue their education in the entertainment industry!

My daughter and I recently attended the 2022
Nationals in Hollywood California! She has learned
To walk the runway, act, met new friends, met her

Nothing but amazing and has changed our lives
Tremendously! This is a quality program that I
Recommend for anyone looking to enhance their
Child's creativity and connect with 5 star personnel!
SPA seriously rocks!

My daughter has had the absolute pleasure of being a part of Society Performers Academy since 2019. Since she first started at the academy, she has taken countless classes with a number of incredible teachers in both acting and singing. And the owner Joe Lorenzo has been there every step of the way. There is no denying how important Society Performers Academy is to him. He familiarizes himself with the kids and parents on a personal level and responds to questions or concerns super quickly. More often than not he is responding to an email within hours of me sending it out. I have watched my daughter grow in confidence and abilities and she has developed an understanding of the business and all the work and dedication it requires to be successful. Joe Lorenzo and his staff do not promise instant stardom for these kids. Nor should they, as the entertainment industry is a tough business. But what they do provide is a safe atmosphere to develop their skills and grow to be as successful as possible.

January 2024 was special for us because our daughter finally got to attend Society Performers in nationals (SPiN). Five amazing days at the Millenium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles among countless other children from all over the United States and even internationally. It was a melting pot of like-minded kids and young adults who shared similar interests and motivations. Our daughter trained and competed in front of several agents and received numerous callbacks. She performed in the Showcase event in front of a crowded ballroom. But more importantly, she made tons of new friends and gained more confidence than I could ever have imagined. She hasn't stopped talking about the event even a month later. It was an amazing experience for the entire family and the perfect vehicle for my daughter to move her young career forward.

Society Performers Academy is the real deal. And gives back as much as your child (and family) put in, and then some. Highly recommended.

Joe and Jen are not only the real deal, but they make you feel like family. My girls love them and so do I. Be ready because your child's dreams just might come true! They are awesome! XOXO

If your child has a passion for acting, singing, modeling and has a great personality these are the ppl to help bring it out more and they will Blossom.

Society Performers Academy rocks! Thank you Joe and Jen for always giving the best to our kiddos and taking so much time and care with them! Absolutely grateful!
