Fundamentals of Acting Course for Adults
Unlock your creative potential. A 3-month journey into the craft of acting, self-discovery, and professional performance.
GREAT ACTING ISN’T ABOUT PUTTING ON A MASK
It’s about taking one off.
Do you feel stuck in your head? Many aspiring actors struggle with “The Wall”—that invisible barrier of self-consciousness that makes performances feel stiff, fake, and forced.
You try to “act” the emotion, but it doesn’t land. That’s because you are trying to show instead of be. At MasterClass Studio, we don’t teach you how to lie. We provide the safe environment you need to strip away the habits that block your expression, so you can tell the truth.

More Than Just Acting
Our students often find that the skills learned in the studio transform their daily lives.
Unshakable Confidence
Stop apologizing for taking up space. Learn to stand your ground, own the room, and feel comfortable in your own skin.
Command & Presence
Master your voice and body language. We teach you projection and articulation so you can deliver presentations that captivate any audience.
Emotional Intelligence
By stepping into different characters, you develop empathy. You learn to read people better and understand different perspectives.
Crush Social Anxiety
Acting forces you to get out of your head. By focusing on your partner rather than yourself, you stop overthinking and start connecting.
Active Listening
Most people wait to speak; actors listen. You will learn to hear what isn’t being said, deepening your personal and professional relationships.
Adaptability
Things go wrong on stage (and in life). Improv skills teach you to think on your feet and solve problems gracefully under pressure.

The Curriculum
Great acting isn’t about putting on a mask; it’s about taking one off. This curriculum is designed to strip away the habits that block your expression, helping you access your authentic self.
Month 1: Human Essences (Weeks 1-4)
Theme: The Instrument & Monologues
We begin by exploring what we call “Human Essences.” You will strip away social masks to access your authentic self, applying this vulnerability immediately to monologue work.
- The Actor’s Instrument: Sensory work, relaxation, and emotional accessibility.
- Human Essences: Identifying the core emotional truths that drive human behavior.
- Monologue Technique: Applying your “essence” to a solo performance piece.
Month 2: Dialogue & The CARBOMB System (Weeks 5-8)
Theme: Conflict, Objectives, & Creation
We move into dialogue and introduce Robin’s proprietary CARBOMB System (Conflict, Action, Reaction, Believing, Objective, Motivation, Being).
- Week 5 (Playing the Objective): Moving away from “playing emotions” to “pursuing objectives.” Improv-heavy sessions where you discover how the pursuit of a goal creates the feeling naturally.
- Week 6 (Reverse Script Analysis): You become the creator. You will write a scene designed to convey a specific message to the audience.
- Week 7 (Improv vs. Repetition): Showcasing your original scripts. We explore the critical difference between the spontaneity of improv and the craft of repeating a scripted performance truthfully.
- Week 8 (Showcase Selection): Selection of the Classical or Modern script you will perform for the final showcase. We begin deep analysis: beats, sequences, and first readings.
Month 3: Rehearsal & Showcase (Weeks 9-12)
Theme: Professional Performance
The final month is a simulation of a professional rehearsal process. You will take the script chosen in Week 8 and bring it to performance level.
- Deep Rehearsal: Applying the CARBOMB system to your assigned scene.
- Blocking & Staging: Understanding movement and stage pictures.
- The Showcase: The course culminates in a live performance for an audience. You will also receive professional footage of your scene for your acting reel.
Note: A production fee applies for the final showcase to cover venue and technical costs (maximum 3,000 THB per student).

Robin Schroeter
“I don’t just teach theory. I teach what works on set and on stage today.”
Since 2018, I have been teaching this powerful curriculum created by MasterClass Studio co-founder Warunya Soontorntae. It is a proven roadmap that bridges the gap between “acting exercises” and the reality of professional work.
With a Master’s in Directing from Chulalongkorn University and credits in international productions like The Creator (Gareth Edwards), Netflix’s The Serpent, and Amazon Prime’s The Forgotten Army, I bring real-world industry pressure into the classroom—in a safe way. Whether acting in German, English, or Thai, I use this exact training to ground my performances, and I am here to help you do the same.

STUDENT STORIES
Don’t just take my word for it.
Our classes sometimes felt like therapy - Robin helped us to open up very gently and guided us along the right path of acting mastery. Im very grateful for this experience!
At first few weeks I didn't notice much of an improvement in my acting. But towards the end of my courses when I was preparing for my showcases I had a quick self reflection and felt that I became more confident in the right way and that all those small gradual lessons did add up to make a noticeable change.
The instructors are brutally honest in the best way they see your potential and push you to reach it. Whilst at the same time they were still being very nice and friendly making the whole course a very fun and engaging experience.
I’ve gained more confidence, emotional depth, and a stronger sense of who I am as a performer.
What I appreciated most was the dynamic I had with my teacher sometimes we debated, sometimes we compromised, and sometimes we challenged each other. Those honest back and forth moments made the learning deeper, richer, and much more meaningful. It wasn’t just passive teaching it was real growth built through mutual understanding.
The only thing I would adjust about the Fundamental Acting course is the balance of the curriculum. Whilst the focus on human essence curriculum was valuable, I personally felt that it was a little too long. And that it could be a bit shorter to extend more time on the scene play practice curriculum.
But overall it was still a great learning for me.
If you’re serious about acting whether you’re a beginner or already experienced this studio will elevate you. I’m proud to have trained here and highly recommend it
When I joined, I wasn’t confident and I didn’t know what to expect. But the atmosphere there — the kindness, the support, the feeling that you can just be yourself — it helped me open up in ways I didn’t expect.
Some moments were really emotional for me, and some were pure joy. I learned so much, not only about acting, but about myself. I felt safe to try, to feel, to express.
This experience stayed in my heart, and I’m truly grateful for everyone I met there. It already feels like something I’m going to miss for a long time. 💛
My daughter recently completed the Fundamentals of Acting course for teenagers, and the transformation over those three months was remarkable. Week by week, her confidence grew—not only in the studio but also at home and in school.
At the final showcase, under the bright lights and in front of an audience, I wondered how she would handle the pressure. She absolutely shone, thanks to the caring guidance of Charls and Robin, who supported her every step of the way.
The showcase itself was unforgettable, with every student delivering fantastic performances. It was a true celebration of their hard work and growth.
If you’re looking to learn the art of acting while building confidence along the way, MasterClass Studio is the place to be. Sign up—you won’t regret it!
The experience was incredibly valuable for me! The atmosphere in class was warm and inspiring, and the people who joined the course were absolutely beautiful souls ❤️
The course itself was packed with insightful lectures from respected Thai and non-Thai professionals who’ve worked in the film industry, including those with Hollywood experience. We also had guest sessions with casting directors, screenwriters, and film directors – which was a huge bonus for anyone curious about the behind the scenes of filmmaking 😎
In the second month, we dived deep into the pre-production of our own short films, followed by shooting and post-production. This practical journey from script to screen was both challenging and exciting. Everyone finished the course with their own short film – which is an amazing thing and a great addition to any showreel 🙏🏻
I was lucky to be invited to act in two projects from my classmates as well, which made the whole experience even more rewarding 😂😁
If you're serious about acting, I truly recommend combining the “Fundamental Acting Course” and “Acting for Films” together. They’re a powerful foundation that will prepare you for big things!
Just come ready to work hard and stay dedicated😁😎
Huge thanks to Robin for his passion and support.
Good luck to all future students and big hugs! 🙏🏻🫂
Robin is a passionate teacher and has been one of the best mentors I have experienced across any of my disciplines.
Highly recommend.
This is an acting class located in Lat Phrao. I joined as a complete beginner, but thanks to the warm and supportive personality of Robin, a professional actor and an excellent instructor, I had an amazing experience. Each term lasts about three months, with one lesson per week, and I always looked forward to it. Even if your English isn't strong, it's not a problem. There's also a class for children. I highly recommend this as one of the best extracurricular activities you can take in Bangkok!
And I can't forget to mention all the people I met from the class. I am so happy to have met so many different people and shared this experience. I will definitely treasure these memories forever!
10/10 would recommend!
I took the Fundamentals course, and it has been such an amazing journey—one that I’ll treasure for a lifetime. If you wonder why, let me tell you:
- The teacher: Robin is not just a passionate and skilled actor; he’s also warm, approachable, and genuinely supportive. He creates a safe and nurturing space where we can explore our emotions, dig deep into ourselves, and bring out the best of us. His eternal support and positiveness are what really really made me appreciate him so much as a teacher. Plus he knows vey skilled people that will also bring the best of you. All of them make the perfect cocktail to craft your skills.
- The class: The Fundamentals course was more than just an acting class—it was a deeply healing and transformative experience. Every session felt like stepping into a world where self-expression is inevitable yet very acceptable. At the end of each session I could feel myself growing, not as a performer, but as a person.
- And definitely THE PEOPLE: One of the big big highlights of this journey was connecting with an amazing group of people. The camaraderie, moments and bond we’ve built over the time made it even more special. I’m so grateful to Robin for bringing us together. My heart aches now that as it’s over ? but the memories and lessons will stay with me 4ever.
If you’re looking for acting classes in Bangkok, especially acting classes in English or acting class for adults, this is the one to choose. You won’t regret it—it’s an experience that will leave you inspired and fulfilled.
Thank youuuu again Robin and the rest of the teachers, you really changed my life in a couple of weeks ?❤️?
The attention to the actors by teachers Robin and Mona was so hands on and poignant. I am so grateful for the impact this course has had on the last few months of my life and am eager to continue my pursuit of such a complex and rewarding craft.
