The Actor And Creative Dissatisfaction
Actors are the most courageous humans I've ever met. They go where most of us fear going. Actors must nurture faith in the creative power...

Hi Storyteller,
I'm Isabel, ISA's founder and acting coach.
I'm genuinely thrilled to welcome you to ISA. You either heard of me through someone you trust or came across one of my videos, quotes, or articles online. Whatever path you took, I'm delighted you're here.

However, my passion for storytelling has been a constant presence since childhood. Chances are, you share this deep connection to acting and stories, a calling that has always resonated within your heart.
I've had the honour of coaching actors from diverse corners of the world, each with their unique training, cultural backgrounds, and dreams, and I'm wholeheartedly dedicated to assisting you in discovering your unique path toward becoming an extraordinary actor.

Will You Be The Next Success Story?
I have studied with Isabel for over ten years at Straeon Acting Studios and I couldn't be more grateful. I started off as a violinist, eager to dip my foot into the world of acting, and today I am working on my third season as a main cast member on CTV/NBC's medical series Transplant, alongside having thirty other professional credits. Isabel's knowledge of stories and storytelling is unmatched and something I aspire to. Her eye for detail and her dedication to helping actors become extraordinary are what has helped many of her clients, including myself, book jobs — not just one-liners, but big important roles in TV series and movies. Not only that, she is a huge advocate for actors creating and working on their own project — to learn to write, produce, and direct — and this has helped me become a more well-rounded storyteller. As someone who has been a reader for many auditions (either as a self-tape or in room for casting), I have seen many of her clients come through. Without hesitation, I can easily say Isabel's influence as a coach is palpable — her clients are more comfortable, more confident, and more in the moment. They're able to take direction and give the character a big journey, leaving a great impression in the room.
Even though I've been studying with her for over a decade, she never fails to teach me something new every single week — about stories, about character, about myself. That is one of MANY reasons why I still study with her to this day. I am very excited for actors, both emerging and professional, to discover ISA, the Institute of Storytelling for Actors and to have access to incredible masterclasses helmed by Isabel and her genius. She WILL make you a much better actor and storyteller. I'll stake my entire career on this.
