I have wanted to take one for awhile, just for fun and for my personal development, not because I want to be a serious actor. any recommendations?
also, what do you do in acting class? I am hoping to get a little practice in beforehand so that I am not horribly embarrassed when I go. what are some ways to prepare, what are some things I can do on my own? what can I expect to happen in class?

HB Studio has been around for many years. They are affordable and have excellent instructors. Many celebrities started their
acting training at HB.
Ask if you can audit a class (it means watch the class for free)

I live in NYC and most people I know commute about 45 min - 1.5 hours (one way) to work every day. My commute is 2 hrs 15 minutes one way, it is not that bad if you use public transport, because you get to read and listen to music and sleep if the train is safe enough (like Metro-North or LIRR). A lot of people commute to the city, but make sure you can commute by train not car, as parking is limited and very expensive plus there are traffic jams on every corner. Many leave their car at train stations and then take the train. It does mean you'll have to wake up early and won't be getting home until late (I get up before 6 am and never home before 8pm) and commuting is very very tiring. So it is not unreasonable but of course it is up to you to decide what matters most - short commute or affordable place to live. Good luck!

You're in the right place! There are tons of places you can go. Community colleges are good as are adult ed centers. As for what to expect, have no expectations. Everyone has to take their first class sometime. Don't expect to be great right away. Have fun with it! Acting classes are a great hobby. You'll learn a lot and you'll never look at actors the same way again.

Look for improv schools, usually at improv theatres. That is where many of the greats really learned to act. It isn't just for "comedy" either. It's for understanding "the scene."
