A NOTE
FROM Jen

Last year, something extraordinary happened at JWS.

Coaches, teachers, and directors from across the country came together for the first-ever Coaches Retreat & Training—and it was electric.

We didn’t just talk about coaching. We pushed ourselves.

  • We challenged old habits.

  • We tested new techniques.

  • We built exercises from scratch.

  • We coached real actors in real time—and the breakthroughs were instant.

It was a room full of brilliant minds, buzzing with ideas and possibilities. It was intense, it was thrilling, and it left us all wanting more… So, we’re doing it again.

But this time, it’s even better. More advanced exercises. More strategic coaching tools. More opportunities to get hands-on with actors and refine your craft in real time.

And you’re invited.

If you’re ready to take your coaching to the next level, let’s go.

Space is extremely limited.
Once spots are filled, that’s it.

What to EXPECT

Across three packed days, we’ll go deep into the real work of coaching and teaching.

  • Not just theory—real-time application. You’ll put proven techniques into practice with actual actors in the room.

  • New strategies, customized for you. You’ll learn when, why, and how to use these tools to unlock an actor’s best work.

  • Create your own coaching tools. You’ll leave with custom exercises tailored to your approach.

  • A room full of top-tier professionals. You’ll collaborate with serious, working coaches, teachers, and directors—no beginners, no fluff.

There’s no online version. No recording. No replays. The only way to experience this is to be in the room.

Last year’s retreat filled quickly, and we expect the same this year. Don’t miss your chance.
