STAR POWER! Workshop for Actors and non-actors results in you expressing your new Star Power Identity that is set up to succeed; bringing that “IT” factor into your life and work, enjoying a more successful life and career and having that winning edge!

STAR POWER!, the book, was originally written  for Actors. It speaks of how to bring the Actor from success to stardom. However, Ms. Shurin has recently found that these same principles benefit anyone in any profession: attorneys, doctors, salespeople, parents, teachers, students, designers, politicians and more.  She hopes these life-altering principles will be used for the betterment of humanity.

STAR POWER!, the workshop, engages the Actor and non-actor in new possibilities, helping them develop their Authentic Self and define their Individual Signature. As an acting coach, it is Ms. Shurin’s job to transform good actors into “brilliant” ones. For non-actors it’s how to transform anyone that wants a qualitative difference in their lives. This is a workshop about Ms. Shurin’s new discoveries about how to define an Individual Signature for each person. The combination of Individual Signature, Transformed Identity and commitment to design a new blueprint and vision for your life is the essence of Star Power.

STAR POWER! works. It begins with valuing your own self.

STAR POWER! is for everyone.

“It’s in all of us but it takes “Star Power!” to bring it out.” ~ Christianne Tisdale, Beauty & The Beast, Law & Order Criminal Intent
