South Pasadena is a great hub of acting and theater activities. We have been helping the many aspiring actors in the city of South Pasadena to grow and learn the skills required to go and audition in Hollywood. We here at PopRock Academy have brought Hollywood style acting classes that are popular on the west side, here to the east side where there isn't many options. Our owner Paul Kwo is a veteran actor, best known for his role of Martin Yip in the hit movie franchise God's Not Dead. He has also an extensive list of credits under his belt. He has created a great program here at PopRock Academy.

Many of ours students here have gone out and used the skills they have learned here at our classes and have booked TV shows, films and commercials. We are so excited that the students here at South Pasadena is passionate about Hollywood and acting. We are especially pleased to help students get real world information about how the industry works. We want our students know have real life knowledge so that they are not scammed in the future. We are dedicated to helping students navigate through the potentially tricky Hollywood landscape, as our instructors are all experienced working actors in the industry.

We offer acting classes for ages 3 to 7 in the form of Disney Musical, where they learn to sing, dance and act together. This helps them get out of their comfort zone and perform. We offer Acting on Camera for kids and youth as well as adults in seperate classes, so that students can feel comfortable exploring their acting skills in a safe environment.

We look forward to many more years of working with the residents of South Pasadena.

We are so proud to offer the community of San Marino professional Hollywood style acting on camera classes. Our founder Paul Kwo is a veteran actor with extensive credits, including a major role in the hit blockbuster franchise movie God's Not Dead. He has also been on major TV shows and done commercial and video game work. We bring professional acting classes to the residents of San Marino so that the students here don't have to drive out to the west side of Los Angeles in order to find the right classes.

Students in our Fundamental Acting classes develop their basic acting skills and learn how to act. Students then can move to our more advance Acting On Camera class and learn professional acting audition skills and acting on camera skills. We specialize in helping our students use what they have learned in other drama classes and apply them to Acting on Camera. Many of our students from San Marino have went on and booked Major TV shows, theater shows and other performance opportunities.

We look forward to helping more aspiring actors from San Marino in the future.

As a proud resident of San Gabriel, I have taught many students in the city of San Gabriel. I have worked with many of the students at Gabrielino High School for many years, which is also my alma mater. I have helped built the music, orchestra, choir, drama, Musical Theater program and speech and debate program at the awesome Gabrielino High. Now, I'm very happy to be teaching students at my performing arts academy, PopRock Academy. Many of the students who have studied with me at Gabrielino High in San Gabriel have followed me to my school and continued their advance study in voice, piano and acting. Some of these students have taken on other instruments, such as guitar, bass and drums. We also have been offering violin, cello and other orchestral instruments to many of the residents of San Gabriel. We also have taught student in pop, contemporary, jazz and classical genres. We love it all and can't wait to share this love and joy with more of the students from San Gabriel.

Some of our students have been in amazing shows and performances such as performing for the Lakers and Kings. They have also performed on Network TV shows as well as other shows across the country. We are very proud of the work we have done in the San Gabriel community.
