2) How I run my services.
Genjis Jacques Biography
Genji Jacques
Dubbed the "Haitian" Denzel, Genji Jacques has the dynamic talents of an actor, director, and playwright. As a versatile actor, Genji becomes the character you love to hate or want to be best friends with. Inhabiting his roles with complete authenticity, he makes every scene believable and relatable to the audience. This God given gift allows Genji to portray a character he has never played before. "I study, own it, perfect it so the audience is affected by how I play the role," says Genji. "Acting is not a hobby for me, it's a passion, and passion is the heart of acting."
Genji has been in the acting business for 15 plus years and his impeccable stage presence has garnered roles in films, stage plays, and television series. In 2000, Genji starred in the best Haitian film to date, "Wind of Desire" produced by Wilkensun Bruna Production. From 2003 to 2008, he went on to star in "Mary Jane" produced by LCS Studio Productions and "Employed" produced by Lunerversal Film Productions. He has been featured in television series such as The Glades, a crime drama with Kiele Sanchez and Carlos Gomez; Burn Notice, a sexy, action-packed series with Jeffrey Donovan and Fiona Glenanne; and HBO Ballers, a comedy series with Dwayne Johnson.
No stranger to stage plays, from 2013 - 2015, Genji starred in the sold out play, "You're Never Alone" with Grammy nominated Gospel Artist James Fortune as well as "When It All Falls Apart" with Grammy award winning R&B Artist, Chrisette Michelle, both plays produced by ZoeStream Productions. A huge departure from his true self, these roles yielded rave reviews, because the audience did not know whether to hate him for the character he played or love him for the man he truly is.
Influenced by actors such as Denzel Washington, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Will Smith, Genji has done acting workshops with Marc Durso and Uta Hagen as well as spent significant time researching and crafting his own unique methods of success.
How can he be so authentic in his roles? "Acting is not just entertaining but also ministering to people who go through things in life," says Genji. "I play each role with a purpose so whatever I play is changing someone's life."
Acting has developed Genji into being a director. His key to success as a director is to bring chemistry to the cast. Chemistry develops a unification which leads to love among the group positioning them to do their best work. He has written and directed several stage plays including, "Hoztage," and "When Good Men Are Tempted," both of which were sold out productions and produced by Godz Sun Productions, his production company co-operated with his wife, Sandra Justice.
Genji played his most meaningful role to date in "The Unknowns: Talent is Colorblind" produced by Top Cat Productions. A film based on a true story, Genji plays the lead role of Alfred T. Hair, an artist in Florida who painted with a passion. Alfred's life was set in the times of the segregated South which he skillfully navigated to become well-loved and known for his artistry.
Genji resides in Fort Lauderdale with his wife, Sandra Jacques also known as Sandra Justice. He has a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from University of South Florida and a Master of Arts in Christian Ministry from the University of Fort Lauderdale.

Furthermore, in my services I always create a comfortable atmosophere and provide improvisational activities to get my students engaged; however what I do best and love is to educate my student about the FOUNDATION OF ACTING. There is alot of people who want to be actors but they don't know its foundation and the hard work they must face and do to maintain their career add as an actor.
I not only enjoy but have a love to help my students to make their characters to be as authentic as possiable. When I play roles in stage plays and film. I make it my business to really BE the character and connect to what and who it is. I can say " Character Building" is one of the main topics I touch on because alot of people struggle on connecting with a role they play. The most important thing I love about my work is connecting with different people with different backgrounds who have the same passion to be the best that they can be in the acting business.
I started teacing in the year 2015. Being in the entertainment industry for 15 plus years, preferably in stage and in film, I gained alot of experieince and took acting classes, do self research, and developed my own acting skills to help me learn about the craft of acting and the importance of understanding the mechenisms to duplicate human behavior when playing a role. As a result, I took the intiative to conduct my own private classes to help others to develop their skills and be the actor from within so they can perform effectively before a live audience.

I worked with mostly beginner students and some seasoned . students as well from the ages 16 and up.
The advice that I would give a student is to make sure they research, get referrals, and observe if the teacher has a good track record and the expertise to help educate and develop your acting skills.
I was a volunteer of The American Black Film Festival and was very fond of this event because it gives all actors the opportunity to meet other actors and hear and learn from celebrity actors about the entertainment industry. I plan to volunteer again in the year 2020 and hopefully one day become staff of The American Black Film Festival Organization.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
1) Does this acting coach have experience in the field on which I need my training on.
2) Does this acting coach truely have a passion on helping his student to perfect his/her craft.
Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Genji.
Perfect! Great class I felt super comfortable in all aspects however, Genji's acting class has a great dynamic between having fun and making sure that students learn where the acting world originates from and what it is all about to be passionate to work in this field. Coming inside a room where performers of the theater world can just be themselves while still enjoying the learning process is a big goal not only for me but for other aspiring actors and actress that is ready to work in the theatrical field. Genji's acting class is highly recommended if your interested in learning the craft while mastering it. If you are shy and timid to perform in front of an audience, I guaranteed that all actress and actors will not feel the same after taking this class providing all students with the confidence and knowledge we need to satisfy ourselves and most essentially the role of the character.
Perfect! Genji is an excellent couch, from the beginning of the session to the end I knew that I can be comfortable with him. He taught me so much from just one session and I know that I am going to continue with him. I highly recommend him. :D

Sunday was my first time taking an acting class with Genji, I loved the lesson. I got to conect with my character for first time in an acting lesson. I don't know how he saw that I was hurting inside, he help me release some of that pressure and I was able to improve so much. I liked the fact that he made me watch a couple of videos, before we discussed one of the actors / characters technic that we picked from the movie. I can see myself being a better actress in a few more lessons from him. I can not wait for my next lesson
I've always wanted to act. But I was never sure if I could. Taking coach Gengi's class is helping me to explore different sides of my acting abilities. One thing I never thought I could do was improv. I learned to improv after just one class. I grow more everyday after each class. I can see my acting skills getting much better after completing this class,

The Genji Acting class I must say was phenomenal. I have taken classes before, so far this was the best experience. The coach was very passionate about his teaching techniques. If you are looking for a great acting coach , I highly recommend that you try the GAC . You won’t be disappointed !!!
Genji is a phenomenal instructor. His style of teaching is above any other acting class I’ve taken. The classes are constructed to benefit the actors based on their individual need.
Taking Genji’s acting classes was the best decision I’ve made toward advancing my career as an actress.Genji is cool, professional, funny, spiritual and creative ! He makes you feel like home from day one. No judgement zone, no bad vibes or inaccurate direction. Classes are fub, educational and inspiring. He pulls the character out of everyone in the class.
First off, Genji is an amazing soul! He came on board my production as one of the supporting roles, but I quickly realized that he had much more to offer. He knew that a lot of the talent we casted were raw and new. We then slated Genji as the acting coach and the results have been nothing short of spectacular. I have seen the cast transformed into each one of their roles with the hard work that was invested on both ends. I strongly encourage anyone who is serious about taking their craft to the next level to sign up for Genji's acting classes.
Genji’s acting class was an amazing experience. He helped me reach emotional points that I didn’t think I would be able to. He completely changed my perspective on acting and really set a nice foundation for me to grow in just one meeting. He is extremely passionate about what he does. My favorite part about Genji’s acting class is that Genji does not give up on you. He believes in you more than you believe in yourself. He will not let you give up on yourself. I learned so much from him and I appreciate him dearly.
I like the professionalism that the Director exhibited

You won't be disappointed.
Genji is an awesome acting coach. I've learned so much from his acting class. I would recommend his acting classes to beginners looking to start a career. As well as professional actors they may want to brush up or prefect there acting skills.
Genji is very knowledgeable about the field of acting on the business end as well as the craft itself. After his class I felt more confident in my improvisational skills, my ability to really connect to my scene partners, and developing my characters. I also left equipped with knowledge, connections, and tangible ways to take the next steps in furthering my acting career; not to mention his genuine spirit is the icing on the cake!
