My daughter came across this company online several months ago. She has an extensive background in performing arts, acting and several genres of dance. I was a little skeptical at first but as she had found it herself and was keen, we gave it a go. The process to “sign you up” is like something from the 80’s. They promise the kids the world and make it very difficult for you as a parent to say no. The communication is poor generally. On on the virtual calls, they never state how long it will take, what to have ready in advance etc etc. The only calls where they do are the ones where they want you to sign up for classes. If your child is under 20 years of age, you know when they’re going to ask you for money as they repeatedly state “your parent must be on camera with you at all times”. My daughter signed up to the audition basics course. A bit low level for her I thought but the coach/teacher for this class was going to be an actor with lots of experience and we would be able to see their details on the IMDB database. The coach was listed on here but it was a self generated profile and contained no information apart from some poor modelling photos. The classes themselves were at best average and were repetitive and at times boring. For over £900 sterling, I expected much better, as did my daughter. Towards the end of the process which included an audition for some talent network meeting in LA and an audition in front of a talent agent, even my daughter was questioning the process. Both these processes were a sham on the day and I felt very sorry for my daughter as she had spent hours preparing for them. We had spent a substantial amount of money having headshots and a portfolio done privately and I felt it was just a promise to nothing. Yesterday, we joined a wrap up call with “Gloria”. Gloria’s strap line is “nobody tells me anything, I’m always the last one to know” whenever she’s asked a question. It’s a great deflection tactic and the mainly American children and parents on the call just fall for it. She introduced the session as being put on due to everybody on the call having a poor resume/CV. She highlighted lots of things, none of which were relevant to my daughters. She said she would call us with individual feedback. No she didn’t. All she did was introduce and send details of a follow on course which everybody could do to “stay relevant” at a cost of $295 per month. She mentioned this course about six times on the call. Instead of a feedback email, we just received details of this course. We won’t be doing anything else with JRP and if anybody ever asked me my opinion on whether to sign their child or indeed themselves up to this company as they do take people of all ages, I’d say, put your money away and find somebody else. I left yesterday’s call feeling really bad for all the other parents and children on the call. Hopes and expectations being raised by the perpetual dangling carrot of fame…….. if you’ve got real talent, don’t waste time and money here. The last three months have set my daughter back in her progress and I honestly wish I’d put my foot down at the beginning. I don’t care about the money but others will. I care that this process was a negative one and not a positive one.

My daughter did the Agengcy Audition Basics. Her coach Myhraliza Aala was very supportive and helpful. My daughter is more knowledgeable and confident with her audition skills. The entire experience was great. The entire team was very professional and made everything clear. Thank you JRP Virtual.

JRP Virtual training was an amazing experience. Their coaches are well experienced and very helpful. Each of us get individual attention and feedback. We can send emails to coaches on the questions, headshots etc and they respond and answer our questions. The studio director and team are also very fast in response and there to help with their feedback, guidance and support. It was an enjoyable and inspiring journey going through these trainings.

Working with JRP Virtual has been an absolute pleasure. As someone in a vastly different time zone, I initially worried about communication and coordination, but their team has been incredibly accommodating and responsive. They truly understand the importance of flexibility and make it a priority to ensure that time differences never become a barrier. Beyond their professionalism, what really stands out is their commitment to excellent service. If any issue arises, they are on top of it immediately, providing thoughtful solutions and making sure everything runs smoothly. It’s rare to find a team that is not only highly skilled but also genuinely invested in their clients’ success. I’m grateful for their dedication, attention to detail, and the peace of mind they provide. JRP Virtual has set the bar high, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, top-tier virtual support!

The coach was patient and calm, the attendees were nicer than I thought. Nobody was being shamed for their mistakes. A perfect 5/5.
