John Robert Powers Academy

Manners - Overcome Shyness - Poise - Etiquette - Citizenship Skills - Good Grades

Would you like your child to improve in all of the above?

While John Robert Powers began discovering and developing new talented adults for movies, TV shows, commercials and modeling careers since 1923, it is only one of our specialties. Kid’s have become one of our fasted growing and most successful age groups. We’re extremely proud of our success in teaching personal development skills that help youngsters achieve higher self-esteem, overcome shyness and gain more over-all confidence. Our kids at JRP have used the tools learned in our classes for everything from school book reports, class performances or even national commercials and movies!

Parents may bring their children to John Robert Powers for modeling and acting training, but we never forget to prepare them for their most important journey… Life!
