We cannot say enough wonderful things about Danny and The Danny Greenberg Studio! Danny is a highly skilled professional, but also incredibly nurturing and supportive. He creates an inclusive environment where every student feels valued and encouraged to explore their creativity. Our daughter loved both the voice and acting classes. We look forward to signing her up for many more semesters. If you’re looking for a place where your kid can develop their acting and or voice skills in a positive and inspiring atmosphere, we highly recommend Danny Greenberg Studio.

Danny creates such a special environment for kids to be themselves, express themselves, and experiment. His approach to acting and improv makes it such a great tool to learn to support others and collaborate. The share day showed us that not only are they having fun and building on others' ideas, they are becoming bolder, owning their own voices, listening and responding to one another, and really becoming creative performers. I couldn't recommend this experience more, whether or not your child is interested in becoming a performer. This is really about finding and expressing new pieces or themselves.

Danny’s studio was a fantastic experience for my daughter. He was so welcoming and his magic brought out the best in her. In her words, “10 out of 10!” I can’t recommend him high enough.

My daughter has been working with Danny for ten years (at his former studio and now at The Danny Greenberg studio). He is a truly exceptional person and teacher. He knows how to motivate and engage and keep the process fun, but has the skills and technique to help his students grow into amazing actors and actresses. He instills confidence in his students, which my daughter was lacking when she first started. She is now getting leads in her school plays and local theater productions and has even been nominated for several local theater awards. Danny is now helping her with her college acting submissions and we are so grateful for him!

I have had the pleasure of working with Danny as my voice teacher for the past four years, and I can confidently say that he is an extraordinary talent. Danny always strikes the perfect balance between structured, technique-focused lessons while also cultivating a warm and supportive environment where I feel motivated and inspired to go past my comfort zone. Whether we’re working on vocal technique, audition prep, or expanding repertoire, Danny’s passion for teaching and theory shines through, tailoring his lessons to each student’s individual needs and aspirations. Under his guidance, I’ve experienced exponential growth as both a vocalist and an actor. Anyone would be lucky to have Danny as a teacher!

Collin Cummins

My daughter really enjoyed this class and was sad when it ended.

Kristina Kendall

Danny is incredible. I have two kids who study with Danny. My son started with him 6 months before the pandemic and his vocal and performance abilities have grown tremendously under Danny's instruction. Danny mixes contemporary, musical and classical techniques to give him a solid basis for his craft. I hear my son practicing recordings of Danny's warm-ups in the shower before a performance or a lesson! My daughter has studied for less time, but has also benefited tremendously from working with Danny. Both kids also LIKE Danny-- he's a person that, even though his makes them work hard, they look forward to working with each week. I can't recommend him enough!

Sarah Sisco

Danny has such a deep knowledge of the theater and music, and he’s so generous with this knowledge. He is remarkably talented as a coach and teacher. Danny also thinks out-of-the-box about how theater can be applied to enrich the education and broad experiences of kids. We highly recommend DGS classes and private sessions!

John Joseph Squires

My daughter had a great time learning the craft of acting and is looking forward to the next semester. I've watched her grow in confidence and creativity in a short few weeks, and I would definitely recommend Danny Greenberg Studio to any child showing interest. Danny is great- so positive and uplifting!
