Our story...


We know ourselves the benefits of movement and fitness and the confidence that comes from performance, though are only just beginning to realise the social effects that our lives in the arts has provided.  We spent less time in front of the television or playing computer games and more dancing and learning to work together in a group that were from all walks of life.  

So at the beginning of 2009 we decided it was time to pool together some great artists and put on a workshop in the holidays that not only shared technique  secrets of some of the best in the industry, but our love of performance.

The course runs from 9.30am till 3.30pm for 4 days during each holiday break whether it be Autumn, Winter or Spring.  The Summer School runs for 5 days as we double up on most classes.  The program covers dance, theatre, circus and music.  The movement component will cover physical theatre, vocal staging and dance and the theatre component covers drama, voice and mime.  The music class is designed to encourage greater understanding of the music that is being introduced and used in the workshops and performances.

At the end of the program is an informal performance in our theatrette for parents and friends to see what their performers have been up to.  We are filming the performance and snippets of the workshop days and offering the dvds as well as candid professional photographs as seen on our site.  Being performers with brains, we also decided to discuss injury prevention and nutrition as these topics were of great benefit to us growing up in the performing arts world. 

We are really happy with the people we have put together for this special experience and are hoping that each performer walks away with something they didn’t think they were capable of doing, but now feel confident enough to do on cue!
