Johnny Cole got his first taste of acting while attending Concordia University in Montreal. Shortly after, he starred in "Underground" at the Rainbow Theater. That experience awakened a desire to learn more about himself and human behavior. He took the next 10 years training and inquiring into these keystones of the acting craft by first holding an apprenticeship in Drama Therapy, working with a broad range of people, from drug addicts to people living with mental and emotional challenges.

While running several successful businesses, Johnny continued his cross-disciplinary study of Transpersonal Psychology with Jacquelyn Small and human potential strategies/philosophies with his father.

He continued his studies at the "Actors Labs" with David Rotenberg, one of Canada's foremost acting coaches with an emphasis in acting on camera.
