A Home for Your Craft.
A Team for Your Career.
An Actor Career Development Program for kids, teens, and adults, guided by Kelly Young-Silva.
Class is your workout. Membership brings ongoing guidance in craft, mindset, and the business of acting—with a community that grows with you.
CRAFT. MINDSET. BUSINESS.
Your Acting Career Extends Beyond Class. So Does Your Membership.
Your acting gym is where you strengthen your craft. Your WIM membership also connects you with Kelly, career guidance, and a community that supports your growth through craft, mindset, and business.
Your Acting Gym
Get in the gym with Kelly and put your words in motion. Strengthen your craft through on-camera work, scene study, script analysis, auditioning, callbacks, self-tapes, improv, and much more. Build confidence and a professional mindset. Practice listening, responding truthfully, taking direction, and making adjustments in the moment. Get ready—and stay ready—for auditions, callbacks, and life on set.
Access to Kelly
Ask questions during or after class, and reach Kelly by text or email between sessions. Share your progress and get guidance on the questions and decisions that come with pursuing an acting career.
Active members receive 50% off private sessions and consultations for dedicated one-on-one support.
Guidance as Your Career Grows
Understand your strengths, develop your professional materials, and prepare for representation. Support continues after you get an agent, helping you communicate your progress and keep your team informed as you grow.
Parents receive guidance in supporting their young actor’s development.
Community & Industry Connections
Continue asking questions and learning in Skool and our private Facebook group. Share accomplishments, exchange experiences, and stay connected between sessions.
WIM also proudly sponsors Georgia Arts Initiative (GAII), led by Kelly, which offers industry support through monthly Zoom conversations and yearly Film Taster events.
Private sessions and consultations are booked separately at the member rate. Guidance and introductions support your preparation; representation, auditions, and bookings are never guaranteed.
Start by experiencing the community.

From the Classroom to the Camera—and Into the Community
Words In Motion has been built one actor, one class, one scene, one production, and one courageous step at a time.
Our history lives in the children who discovered their voices, the teens who learned discipline, the adults who continued pursuing professional careers, and the families and artists who helped build a place where film and television actors could keep growing.
We have trained actors in studios, classrooms, theatres, online spaces, film workshops, camps, schools, community programs, and performance venues across Georgia. The location may change, but the purpose remains steady: prepare actors for the camera while helping them become confident, disciplined, generous members of a creative community.
Film & Television Training Through the Years
Regular training gives our community a place to do the work together: truthful performance, camera awareness, script work, listening, confidence, and professional habits.
From Class to Camera
On-camera workshops, filmed scenes, production experiences, and work with directors help actors understand how their training functions in a real film and television environment.
Training That Becomes Performance
Actors need more than exercises. Performances, showcases, camps, mystery productions, and special events give them opportunities to share the work, meet an audience, and rise to the moment.
A Studio That Moves Through the Community
Words In Motion has brought classes, camps, workshops, performances, and creative programs into different Georgia communities while remaining rooted in professional film and television acting training.
FILM, TELEVISION & ADVANCED TRAINING
