Testimonials
Many of our actors grow from having little to no experience or training to becoming successful working actors and we couldn’t be more delighted.
Evie Allen /
Princess Helaena Targaryen - House of The Dragon
“It has been a joy to see Evie’s confidence in her acting grow since she joined DMA two and a half years ago. Dominique and the other coaches offer such a nurturing environment for the students and really take the time to listen to and understand their goals and interests as actors, ensuring their training is bespoke to each of them. Evie loves the studio Masterclasses. The variety of Industry Professional guests has given her a great overview and understanding of how all the disciplines within the industry fit together to bring something to the screen and that knowledge has definitely helped her as an actor. When evie booked her first television role last year, Dominique and Melissa immediately made sure Evie and I knew we could call any time if we had any questions about what to expect and now she has just secured her second job I feel safe in the knowledge they are on hand if needed! I have no doubt Evie's successes over the last year are in no small part down to the training and support she receives at DMA!”

Cole Martin / Leon - My Name is Leon
“We can honestly say DMA have genuinely made a big impact on how Cole approaches his acting career. From breaking down scripts for rehearsals to the last minute mentoring session on a Sunday evening to prepare for a fastball audition the next day.
Dominique genuinely cares about the progress of not only Cole but all the DMA students. It's not just about acting either. Dominique sources some great industry professionals from stage & film writers, Casting Directors, makeup, lighting & camera.
Cole attended his first film premiere last night as the lead actor and DMA has to take a lot of praise for getting him to where he is now.”

Tiny Tim -
A Christmas Carol, The Old Vic
“Dominique and Amber at DMA have boosted Freddie’s confidence massively, they are so friendly and professional and made Freddie feel instantly at ease as soon as he walked through the door. Freddie learns so many great techniques and skills, which make him feel that he is excited about auditioning for roles. His whole experience is just amazing and we can’t thank DMA London enough.”

Maddie Evans / Dyana - House of The Dragon
“It is hard to find the right words to describe the impact Dominique has had on Maddie since she first met her 5 years ago and became her acting coach, mentor and role model. For Maddie Dominique is her inspiration, she challenges her, questions her and pushes her harder to achieve more and believe in herself
In all that Maddie has achieved in the last 5 years since she started in this industry Dominique has been instrumental in guiding her, supporting her and championing her and for that we will be forever grateful. The knowledge, experience and skill Dominique possess is incredible and she shares it all happily, fully and unselfishly. Dominique’s mentoring and now the DMA coaches are the perfect combination for Maddie and she is blessed to have them as part of her team. To care as she does and always want the best for Maddie, as a parent, I could never ask for more.
To find Dominique is, as we have said before, like finding a precious shining light to help navigate us through the unknown at times, with kindness, patience and a lot of tolerance! Thank you every time!
Without Dominique’s support and guidance Maddie would not be where she is today or the actor she aspires to be every day.
To put it in 3 words Dominique is ‘simply the best’.

Isabella Sermon / Maisie Lockwood - Jurassic World
“Through both her individual coaching and mentoring sessions with Dominique and the monthly Masterclasses, Izzy’s skills and her confidence in her acting abilities have grown immensely over this time.
Dominique is always so professional and encouraging, guiding Izzy to be the best that she can be and to push herself further.
She is always available, even at the last minute, to assist with a self tape or some last minute prep, even to the extent of making herself very late attending a wedding to make sure that Izzy was fully prepared before she started filming overseas.
Dominique’s knowledge of the industry, her skill set and professional experience are amazing, as is the altruistic way in which she is so willing to share her knowledge and experiences with her young actors.
Thank you Dominique.”

Bailey & Halle Cassell / Clem - The Dumping Ground
“DMA for Bailey and Halle has so far been a great learning journey. Not only for acting but it’s a complete insight into the acting industry as a whole. Learning all the elements needed to enhance their skill set to ensure they are completely prepared as individuals to work as professionals in the industry. Additionally, learning screenwriting, directing and understanding the important elements when on set, such as cinematography is invaluable. This makes the world of difference, just knowing they are getting a full understanding of what is required, to ensure when placed in a role they have the tools to work as complete professionals.”
- Cleo Cassell (mother) / Bailey and Halle Cassell
Amelie Green / Bill - Malory Towers
“Dominique and her team at DMA have been a guiding light in Amelies acting journey and we are so grateful for everything they have done for her!
The acting training at DMA is unrivalled - students learn so much about technique and camera skills gaining a wide range of current industry knowledge. There is a lovely sense of community and belonging within the Elite team, a strong emphasis on supporting each other which is so refreshing in this competitive industry.
Dominique's nurturing ethos shines through in all her classes, she genuinely cares about every DMA member. Both Dominique and Melissa have been instrumental in building Amelie's confidence and belief to trust her instincts as an actor. They have worked so hard with her and gave up hours of their time to advise and guide her through auditions and recalls.
She has now booked her first regular role in a tv series and we are so thankful to the amazing team that is DMA.”
- Cathy Howse (mother) / Amelie Green
Grace Schneider / Laura Martin - Vanity Fair
“Finding Dominique was a game changer for our family. Her ability to connect with Grace, to coach and to push Grace to different and higher levels of performing was something I could never have achieved on my own.
Dominique is different in that she truly loves and cares for Grace and what is best for her personally and professionally. She brings energy, passion, experience and knowledge that is hard to find elsewhere.
Grace loves working with Dominique and is always keen to take on her coaching and guidance. Thank you Dominique, you are one of a kind.”

Romanie Jija-Wakeham / Hortensia - Matilda - West End
“ I cannot begin to explain what DMA has done for her! She has not only grown as an actor but as a person. Her confidence, self-awareness and self-belief have been nurtured and developed by the amazing mentors and coaches. The love and support she has received fills my heart with so much gratitude. She calls DMA her ‘safe space’.”
Zoe Wakeham (mother)
“DMA is my second family I love spending time with all my friends both in masterclasses and in our social days out. My 1-1 sessions with both Dominique Moore and Dominique Jackson are the highlight of my week. They both bring out the best in me and believe in me even when I don’t believe in myself. I can’t imagine life with DMA, Thank you xx”

“Being part of DMA Elite has been a real privilege. Participating in the Masterclasses and meeting industry professionals has taught me so much skills and knowledge, helping me to understand what goes on in front of the camera as well as behind the scenes. Learning from Dominique and having her as my mentor is truly AMAZING! She is alway pushing me to the best of my ability and guiding me in the right direction. I also love working with the other DMA coaches, as I feel that I learn something new from each one. Being part of DMA has increased my genuine enthusiasm for creative arts and helps me engage in all opportunities made available to me. I just want to say a huge THANK YOU!”

Miami Holness / Shonelle - School of Rock, West End
“We have been working with Dominique and DMA for a very long time and she is my first point of call when it comes to professional actor training for my daughter. Absolutely blessed to have her support, her and her team have helped Miami grow in confidence and I appreciate so much the absolute genuine love and care that we’ve been given. It’s hard to find in this industry and for parents it can be tricky knowing who to trust and who will have your child’s best interest at heart. I cannot Recommend Them enough. Thanks for everything!”
