Taking up acting in Vancouver

Hey folks,
Lately I've gained a pretty huge interest in taking up acting. The idea of becoming a character, someone else entirely is fascinating to me. I've almost thought about theatre but I come from a (somewhat) film background, so I feel I'd be more quickly to learn and engage in that medium.
I've been an indie filmmaker/director for several years now, and I want to see what it's like on the other side of the camera. I have almost zero experience acting, besides cameos in my own projects, or appearances in student films. Obviously, these don't let me really get the gist of what it means to act.
I s'pose I'm just looking for general advice, comments, etc and any resources to classes or seminars where I can learn from the ground up. So far, the only worthwhile website I've come across is actorsfoundry.com. They have a few classes but I can't really judge whether they'd be appropriate for a complete beginner or not.
I'll also mention that I can't afford to look at university/college level full-time courses as they are simply too expensive ($20,000 seems to be the average) and I'm already paying off debt from film school.
Thanks in advance!
