We offer dance classes including ballet, pointe work, tap, modern, street dance and jazz. Singing classes are for ages 9+. Acting classes are for ages 6+. Entry from age 3 to 8 years do not require an audition.
Dance Classes
TPA has a clear mission and is committed to providing an excellent standard of teaching via highly trained and professional teachers within excellent facilities and resources.
RAD syllabus ballet classes are available at all levels as well as non-syllabus classes for all ages.
Students studying tap and modern are entered for exams within the ISTD syllabus, whilst contemporary, jazz, street dance, acro and musical theatre (dance) classes do not follow a set syllabus.
Singing and Acting Classes
Students explore many aspects of acting and singing. Older students cover scripted work and play building which incorporates musical theatre skills. Singing classes are tailored to group sizes and may include choral, ensemble and group singing.
The TPA singing and acting classes offer students the opportunity to explore many aspects of both genres in a challenging and supportive environment.
