Michelle Khare Instagram – For the past two years, I’ve been tackling a personal challenge of my own. It’s always been my dream to act in an action film or TV show. But I realized that if I wanted to do it, I’d need to take it on like any other challenge — put my ego aside, put my head down, and do the fucking work with the best of the best. So, I quietly enrolled in a two year Meisner conservatory program. Between all of the Challenge Accepted episodes you’ve seen us put out over the past two years, I’ve been going to class and rehearsals 4x a week — between shoots, after work, on the weekends, and even through boxing fight camp. Simply put, it completely kicked my ass into gear. I told myself I’d never post or share about it unless I made it to the finish line. Today, I finally graduate this program, and feel ready to share. I’ve made lifelong friends, I’ve been pushed beyond my emotional breaking point by some of the greatest teachers and training partners I’ve ever had, and unlocked new parts of myself I didn’t know were possible. I’m a completely different artist, performer, content creator, and actor – all for the better. • There’s no video coming about this experience – this one was just for me – but I hope you’ll see this work come to life one day on a screen near you. ❤️Can’t wait to get this training in action in audition rooms and on set, once SAG is able to negotiate fair pay and make this industry more equitable for its artists (vote YES if you can!). After that, it’s game on. 😈 And finally: this is me saying to friends, casting directors, and collaborators – I’m excited and open to any opportunities you may have that I might be a fit for, no matter how big or small!
