Tell me if this sounds like you:
You want to practice your art every single day.
You need to honour your calling and fulfill your potential.
You have too many ideas yet not enough clarity or strategy (or time!)
You've over trying to figure it out yourself and wasting time thinking about practicing instead of actually practicing.
You're tired of feeling like you could be a better Actor than what you currently are.
You wish there was a way to find JOY and EASE in getting better in tiny steps every single day.
Good News!
I help my clients with those same problems every single day.
Imagine...
There was a way to easily practice your Craft every day with convenience and joy...You could finally have agency over your Artistry and see constant improvement in your work...You could easily implement simple changes to your lifestyle to ensure that when opportunity presents itself, you're ready.

Who is this right for?
So you're relatively new to Acting and you're learning HOW to work.
Oh boy am I glad you found me.
This is the perfect course to help you build the foundation for a solid, long career. Work ethic beats talent every single time, and to start your career with a sturdy discipline and a well-rounded, finely tuned instrument already puts you miles ahead of your peers, welcome!
Honestly, most actors fall in to this category.
Perhaps you've been acting for a while but it hasn't quite taken off for you.
Perhaps you're a recent grad with some great training but not a huge body of work.
Perhaps you took a break from your craft for whatever reason (parenthood, career goals shifted, life curveball) and you're ready to start taking your Artistry seriously again.
You're what I would call an Intermediate Hobbyist. An Actor who certainly has skill but hasn't yet been able to give their Craft and their Career the focus it requires to break through to that next level.
Commitment to Craft is exactly what you need to help you find the focus, clarity and structure to achieve your goals and finally reach your potential.
So you've been acting for a while now. You get consistent auditions and have a decent body of work.
Perhaps you're feeling like your work has started to plateau and you're not seeing the opportunities you would like.
Perhaps you've fallen in to the trap of only practicing when you get an audition and you're looking to rekindle the JOY you once had in your process.
Perhaps you're feeling like you're not living up to your potential and you want a jump-start to get back to your discipline.
Commitment to Craft is exactly what you need to hone your discipline and re-connect with the fun and Artistry in your practice, for practice's sake!
Basically, this is for you if...
You want to start 2024 with a winning mindset.
You have an idea of your goals but need assistance and clarity.
You're feeling ambitious but don't know where to start.
You’ve started, but you’re feeling overwhelmed with the big picture.
You want an easy, straightforward system to build out your practice and achieve your goals.
On the flip side....
This is not for you if...
You’re not interested in working hard to achieve your dreams.
You're not willing to take a serious look at what's currently not working in your career.
You prefer to crowdsource free groups rather than get real, actionable strategy from experts.
You’re feeling 100% satisfied with your current creative practice.
You like to move slowly and see a delayed return on your (time and money) investment.
Hi, I'm Shane!
I'm an Actor and Coach (and Producer, Director and Writer). I work with Actors to help build their technique and skill, as well as mentor Actors in business and industry so that they can work at an elite level and find longevity in their careers.
I grew up in Melbourne, Australia where in addition to being a doting Uncle to Flora the Cow, I worked professionally in the Australian entertainment industry for 10 years. I had a pretty successful career so naturally...I decided to sell everything I owned and move to Vancouver, Canada to start from Scratch.
I've trained extensively under the best coaches in the world, have worked for a three time Emmy Award winning Casting Director and won awards Internationally for my work as an Actor, Producer and Writer. I'm also a qualified Tertiary Educator and have trained actors all over the world including serving on the faculty at the National Theatre in Melbourne, The Howard Fine Acting Studio (Australia) and own the Sonder Acting Studio (Vancouver).
Why I created this:
I created this program because I've seen it literally transform the lives and careers of the actors I coach in person and wanted to make it more widely available to help as many actors as I could.
I only have so many hours in the day, and I've been fully booked as a private acting coach now for years with a waitlist to join my studio as a private student.
Also, I found through my market research that while many coaches stress the importance of a Daily Practice, no other course exists that actually teaches actors HOW to create and maintain a Daily Practice.
This course allows me to get this training in to YOUR hands, for a fraction of what it would cost you if we were working together in studio.
And to be honest - I get so much fulfilment from this work. Everytime an Actor tells me their breakthroughs and how I helped them reach new milestones my heart BURSTS and I do a happy dance (so selfishly I'm also in it for the dopamine).

Got questions? I've got answers!
How long do I have to complete the course?
I've designed the course to be completed in 6 weeks but the beautiful thing about the online platform is that you can absolutely do it at your own pace, on your own time.
How long do I have access to Commitment to Craft?
Once you've enrolled you gain life time access to Commitment to Craft!
Are there any live elements?
I will be hosting a live weekly Q and A to answer any questions and help provide guidance; along the way. If you cannot make the like Q and A you can submit your question in writing and all Q and A calls will be recorded and available to students enrolled in Commitment to Craft.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes! You can choose to split your payments over 4 months. We never want finances to be a barrier to education if you would like to discuss an alternate payment plan please reach out to us at [email protected]
What is your refund policy?
21-day Money-back Guarantee:
If Commitment to Craft truly does not help you create and maintain your daily practice, simply email us 2 of your completed Daily Practice Checklists and we will issue you a full refund.
After those 21 days, you're stuck with us!
What if I want to complete Commitment to Craft quicker than 6 weeks?
LOVE your enthusiasm, but I designed Commitment to Craft very specifically to only release certain lessons at certain times.
Its purpose is to create lasting change that will serve you for the rest of your life. Think of it like baby steps toward big goals, and if you rush it may effect your longevity.
Can I bring friends to do the course with me?
Absolutely! In fact we teach an entire module on Accountability and odds are if you asked this question, you benefit from external Accountability.
We have a system of pairing students that prefer external accountability together, so if you think a buddy would enjoy this program and you'd like to work on it together with them, send them our way!
p.s We have an affiliate program, please email [email protected] to learn how you can earn a discount on future courses by referring friends (and they get discounts too, it's win/win!).
Is there a support group or community for Commitment to Craft?
There sure is! When you enrol in Commitment to Craft you get access to our exclusive platform where you can connect with fellow students who are also completing, or have completed the program.
You also have the ability to engage with ME! In this platform I'll be hosting live Q&A's to help guide you through any issues that may arise while you're completing this work. Community is a core pillar of our studio, and we foster that through this course so we can all learn and grow from each other.
What if I have no formal training? Will I understand the exercises?
Absolutely! I've designed Commitment to Craft to help actors of ALL abilities and experience levels.
I give you everything you need, from all of the foundational knowledge to specific exercises with tutorials. YOU are the architect behind your program and it's designed so that as your experience grows, so does your practice.
Using your 7 Pillars of Daily Practice, do I have to practice 7 different things every single day?
The simple answer is - not necessarily.
There are 7 areas of focus, but by using the exercises I provide, a LOT of them overlap.
In fact Commitment to Craft helps you build out a program that's so ingrained in your lifestyle that you'll often find you're achieving your practice without needing to carve out any additional time in your day.
