"We created the MiM Gym because it’s what we wanted in a class.
When life is busy, you don’t necessarily need a weekly class with a longterm commitment, but a place to sharpen your skills and allow a trusted teacher to help you tap into your potential. Thus, we give you: MiM Gym. The affordable, flexible way to develop and hone your toolset for embodiment and presence in song."
- MiM Gym Teachers Adam & Jonathan & Founder Jillian
The Experience
MiM Gym offers artists the tools of the transformative Meisner in Music technique within a flexible format.
Flexibility
MiM Gym provides a unique and flexible approach to Meisner in Music classes. Participants can purchase packages of two to eight classes that they may sign up for at their leisure with the freedom to reschedule with 24 hours' notice and roll into upcoming months.* *Rollover excludes the 2 class pack
When, Where, & How
When We Meet
There are four classes per month that students may sign up for that occur biweekly on Saturdays at 11:00am and Sundays at 5:00pm, typically during the second and fourth weeks of each month.
Where We Are
We are located in the heart of New York City's theatre district at The Chain Theatre. You can find us on Google Maps!
How Classes Work
Want to take three classes one month and one class the next? No problem! With MiM Gym's flexible format, you can build the schedule that works for your needs. Register for a 2, 4, 6, or 8 class pack and sign up for classes at your leisure.
What to Expect
Opening & Lesson
We begin each class with a check-in, seeking to find acceptance of ourselves, just as we are that day. In Meisner, nothing has to be left at the door. We then launch into group warm-up to prime the vocal and spiritual instrument for impulsive, playful work.
Collaboration & Play
Students sing either accompanied by our pianist, a cappella, or with their own instruments, and work in a one-on-one session with their teacher with the option to film their session for reflection and sharing.
Joyful Closing & Homework
After each student has participated in group Meisner exercises and individual singing, homework may be given and we go off into our weeks, hopefully better than we came.
Flexible Class Packages
Our
Approach
-
We believe in teaching technique, not just tips and tricks. Through MiM Gym's flexible classes, artists can gain applicable tools that may be applied well beyond their time in class.
-
Its month-to-month commitment makes MiM Gym a flexible option for artists who want to take Meisner in Music within their busy schedules.
-
With the most valuable package priced at $155 per month, MiM Gym remains one of the most accessible acting-through-song class options in NYC.
-
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion scholarships are available for those who have been historically excluded from and silenced by Western classical music and North American musical theatre.

within themselves.
