Acting
Acting coach Catherine Gilquest graduated from Central and she provides the Monday classes for LAMDA grades and exams. Catherine also teaches in the Saturday classes comprising improvisation, scripts (etc.). We workshop and explore performance techniques and theory in a practical and fun way, allowing control of confidence and grounding backed up by theory.
The Academy has close links with Casting Agents, Directors and Producers throughout the industry allowing students the opportunity to audition and perform professionally, both locally and nationally.
Dancing
Under the instruction of Tracy Osman, students learn technique and performance style through new and exciting commercial choreography. Classes are focused towards dancing on both the Stage and Television, learning and polishing routines, working on the ever important ‘look’.
Singing
Jan Christie and Sarah Stannart use their extensive knowledge of vocal technique to develop students voices, learning important theory to understand how the voice works and how to apply it in class. Throughout the classes work will be done on warming up, pitching, range and harmonies to name a few.
We offer classes separately to cater for the different needs of everyone, although we encourage students to find experience in all capacities, creating an all-round performer.
