"My aim as a teacher is to aid in the development of practical, dynamic, and confident performers whose work is a reflection of their creativity and willingness. I believe that people want to be challenged in order to grow and expand. I also believe that in order to achieve the goals that creative people set for themselves, they need to be mentored and encouraged. And I feel that everything is a creative being, whether you're an actor, painter, writer, singer, dancer, salesperson, computer programmer, proofreader, whatever. In everyone's heart is a connection to the desire to communication something meaningful to the world" - Van Brooks
