“Belinda has revealed so much about the habitual things I do that I never knew. This allows me to make informed and healthy decisions. Her work is productive though gentle and fun. The studio is beautiful.”
Andrew Boszhardt
My work with Belinda has opened me up emotionally and physically and greatly enhanced my on-camera work in a subtle but profound way. She is patient, knowledgeable, and a pleasure to work with. Simply put, she is one of the best acting and movement coaches that I’ve worked with.

Freedom of breath, movement, and thought. Belinda has the intuition, knowledge, sincerity and good humor to work with you for you to allow all of this to come together — as well as a keen eye!

Belinda "meets me where I am" when I come into the studio, and has an open ear to questions I have while working on my monologues. She encourages me to think about where the text lives in my body and helps me create diverse characters in a more spacial way, getting me out of my head, the place where I most commonly find that my speeches and characters get stuck.

I felt a deep sense of relaxation after the very first session. As time went on, I began to assimilate the concepts of the Alexander Technique into my everyday life. I strongly recommend Belinda Mello to anyone, particularly actors, who are interested in gaining a greater level of confidence, presence, and personal authenticity.

Lessons with Belinda Mello are full of a spirit of joy. She is a gifted
teacher: warm, endlessly inventive and patient. But to me, the joyfulness is
the truly rare quality which has made my Alexander lessons a life-changing
experience.
