About Ben
I am one of the only private acting coaches in the Central PA area. I teach full-time at CYHS in York, PA and have created and developed a rigorous acting curriculum since 2002 that I am excited to bring to the greater Central PA area. Through The Perfect 5th Musical Arts Center in Mechanicsburg, I offer professional acting training that focuses on audition technique, cold reads, self-taping and monologue/scene study. I currently study with Anthony Meindl at his NY/LA Acting Studios (AMAW) and have been studying there since 2009.
The best thing about teaching acting is that it is an opportunity to mirror and reflect our own humanity. Acting is really about giving ourselves permission to truly feel feeling through the stories and characters that we "play." The greatest part about teaching acting is seeing an actor grow from when they start out to when they really begin to drop into feeling and authenticity. The effect is always engaging and powerful when it happens.

I really liked working with Ben Hodge! I learned a lot about acting and recording self tape auditions!
I loved the atmosphere! Helpful critiques without being judgmental. I felt comfortable learning something new.
Mr. Hodge is an excellent teacher; he brings out the best in my acting, always encouraging me to make bold choices and to be confident in them. My acting is the best it's ever been thanks to him. He equipped me well enough to land the lead in the first non-musical play I auditioned for!
I like how Ben Hodge can help us get out of our heads and go for our true self within our work.
I recently finished 7 weeks of acting classes with Ben Hodge. What a truly amazing and wonderful experience!! This has been without a doubt the most nurturing acting environment I have ever been in. Along with truly insightful and inspiring guidance. If you have ever thought about taking acting classes or wish to further your training, I 100% recommend Ben Hodge!!!
His hands on help and strive to get you to that next point. And so many more things. Wouldn’t want anyone else to help me in this acting journey.
I worked with BHStudios in school and out of school in classes and productions for my entire high school career. I credit his teachings to making me the person I am today and the confidence I have in myself. He made my high school experience enjoyable and allowed me to come out of my shell on a different platform. Every single lesson was fun and different yet he always knew how to push you further and to where he knew your potential was. I think that every student actor should work with him in some form, his teachings are extremely beneficial and unforgettable.
Ben really believes in his students. No matter your experience when you enter his classes, he will help you find your confidence. I have worked with him since I was 13 years old, and still learn from him at 24. He helped me stop pushing and just be. Taught me to breathe in scenes, and stop avoiding the things in my acting that scared me.
Ben applies Anthony Meindl methods that really open an actor to not just their acting talents but a better way of living an emotionally connected life. He has studied in the studio in LA and regularly takes students to the NY studio. His teachings are current and always evolving. I highly recommend working with him.Hodge creates a safe space for everybody to feel comfortable with being vulnerable with acting. He pushes you to think out of the box and go further with your characters. He helped me learn more about who my characters were, their backgrounds, and how I personally could connect with my character. I am an introvert, but these classes helped me to be social!
