Ingrid Jordan - Masters Student, Actress
“When I first started training with Coach Jonna back in 2017, I was intrigued on how intuitive she was with me. I felt so comfortable like I knew her for years and that's because there is no room for judgement with her. She only preaches understanding and empowerment; she is one with her students and never see's herself above anyone else. I never knew what she meant when she said it is an honor to be in the presence of a powerful actor, like myself. It took years of training with her to know what that meant. There is power in my pain and I will empower those around me and I have. The tools of the Chubbuck Technique change how I see myself, people, the world, and my pain. Now, I'm no longer afraid to show it and use it. It's the very reason I'm an 10 time International Award Winning Actress & Filmmaker that's on the path to The Oscars.”

“It doesn’t take long to see how special coach Jonna is. She is an incredible instructor, equipped with the education, training and experience to coach students to compete on the highest level. She is a strong, brilliant black woman but above all, what sets coach Jonna Naegele apart is her commitment to her students. Week after week I have watched her go above and beyond, patiently and diligently working with us. She makes it her obligation to give us the most value possible through her coaching. As a result, I have grown tremendously. Thank you, Jonna!”

“I’ve learned so much from Coach Joanna. She’s made me more confident when acting. She’s helped me connect with acting by using my own experiences to bring out real emotions.”

Danny Reid - Masters Student, Actor
“I stepped in this class because I felt I was on the right path. I bought the Chubbuck book and needed someone to instruct me hands on. That’s when I heard about Coach Jonna. Reviewed her work, signed up and was ready to work. What I received was not only phenomenal instruction but I was connected to someone that genuinely cares about my goals, my desires, my relationships but most importantly my mental health. I’ll always be grateful for the wisdom she’s given me! Jonna isn’t just a coach. She’s a supporter, a nurturer but most importantly she’s a friend. I could go on all day about her but I’ll leave it at that, love you Coach!!!!”

“Over the years of working with Coach Jonna, I grew to realize and solidify my “why” for working in the entertainment industry. I am firm in my decision to be an actor because of that “why.” I absolutely love training with Coach Jonna!”
