"Working with Jake O’Flaherty was a truly epic experience for my acting! he had me prepped and ready for an audition overnight with all the professionalism and patience needed until I got where I felt comfortable and ready to book! Thanks so much!!"

Toru Uchikado

"Jake's commercial class was one of my first classes ever in the states. Back then, I did not speak much English and partly because of that, I often shied away from showing who I am. However, commercials are all about personality, and he taught me how to open up and show you are."

Paul Lauden

"Jake has been instrumental in my career. His coaching and 20 years in the entertainment industry have guided me in such a positive direction. With his insight, I've signed with a top commercial agent, manager, joined a prestigious theater company and signed on as a writer/performer for a new talk show. I'm very thankful and appreciative to be working with with Jake."

Luis Alberto Aracena

"Jake is my go to acting coach for commercials, TV, Soaps, and Hosting. He breaks everything down for me quickly so I understand what I need to book the job. He always helps me find something unique about my performance that keeps me working!"

What's My Approach?

Coaching for me is finding the essence of the character thru the written dialogue, physical actions & tone of voice. Making simple, specific choices that make sense yet are unique, is the secret to creating memorable characters that still seem true to life. Asking yourself : who, what, where, when & why is the first step. From there finding interesting choices in the delivery is what books you the job!
