ABOUT AAF
Actors Academy Finland has been born from a passion for the craft of acting. Our mission is to create more avenues and possibilities for growth and expansion for both professional and starting actors, performers, directors and the ones who are looking for new ways to expand their creative and emotional expression and growth.
We at AAF share a firm belief in every human being's natural talent. It is often not only about learning more skills but unlearning patterns that are disconnecting us from our creative freedom and flow.
We are here to help you do just that. Supporting you to learn what you need to learn, but most of all - help you unleash your unique talent.
At AAF we also stand for your freedom and free choice. We are here to celebrate your uniqueness and support your personal empowerment.
Nothing more magical than the courageous moment a person drops their mask and steps into their authenticity. Nothing more empowering for them and nothing more appealing to anyone in their presence.
- Nita Arpiainen

Have you been looking for a supportive community and inspiring coaches to push you to the next level?
ABOUT THE FOUNDER
NITA ARPIAINEN
Founder, CEO
Nita Arpiainen is an actor and acting coach, yoga teacher, holistic coach and the founder of Actors Academy Finland. In her previous careers, she has been a professional snowboarder and also worked as a TV presenter and producer.
Nita's deep passion and curiosity for acting, learning and personal growth is the underlying motivation for AAF to come alive. The vision for AAF was formed while Nita attended numerous acting schools and workshops in London at the Actors Temple, Giles Forman Acting Studio, City Academy and the Actors Studio to name a few, ultimately falling profoundly in love with the Meisner Technique, and it making a powerful and lasting impact on the way she viewed acting. Nita has been passionately studying and working with the Meisner Technique since 2015.
Nita has created and designed the Actors Academy's One Year Training as the optimal training course for varied level acting students who share a readiness and authentic desire to dive into the work with depth and and expand both professionally as personally. The One Year Training combines the expertise Nita and the other OYT coaches have gathered on the subject around the world in a very powerful way.
