Little Voices (9-12 years)

By Little Voices Brentford, Ealing & Wembley

This session is for 9-12 year olds. Our Little Voices classes are designed to build confidence, communication and performance skills in a fun, friendly and supportive environment. Working in small groups of 10 or fewer, children explore singing, drama, characterisation, expression and script work, while learning how to work together as a cast. They’ll experience a range of theatre styles, develop fundamental acting techniques and learn healthy vocal habits to nurture their young voices. Each 45-minute lesson is engaging, varied and designed to develop skills week by week. All Little Voices pupils work towards recognised LAMDA exams, including group and/or solo work, and take at least one examination each academic year, giving them something exciting to work towards while building confidence and celebrating their progress.

Ballet Level 1 — Ages 5–7

By DanceWithUs

Children's ballet classes in Stratford for ages 5 to 7, at Chobham Academy, E20. Proper classical foundations, taught with warmth. Posture, alignment, strength and grace — the technique that makes every other style of dance easier, and the reason ballet is where most dancers start. Our teaching is RAD-informed and our teachers trained at Trinity Laban, Performers College and beyond. But what your child will notice is that they get better at something every week, and that somebody notices. Complete beginners are welcome. Two class times a week — Thursday after school or Saturday in the afternoon.

Mini Voices (New Parents)

By Little Voices Brentford, Ealing & Wembley

Our Mini Voices singing & drama classes are for children between the ages of 4-7 years old, and will introduce them to the performing arts in a fun & friendly way. Your child will benefit from being part of a very small group (10 or less) that we put together based on their friendships and ability, and this is where we’ll start to nurture their talents & focus on developing their confidence and communication skills. Each Mini Voices lesson lasts for 30 minutes and is thoughtfully designed to suit younger children’s concentration levels and learning needs, keeping sessions engaging, varied and lots of fun. Your child will enjoy the benefits of both singing and drama; and like all our Mini Voices pupils, they’ll work towards LAMDA’s Introductory Communication Exams, which will help them gain confidence & boost their communication skills.

Toddler & Preschool Ballet Classes

By DanceWithUs

Preschool dance classes in Stratford for children aged 3 and 4, at Chobham Academy in East Village. Forty-five joyful minutes of movement, music and imagination — skipping, balancing, spinning, and a lot of pretending to be things. It builds coordination, listening, confidence and the ability to take turns, long before it looks like "proper" dance. No experience needed and none expected. Some children join in from minute one; some watch for three weeks and then never stop. Both are completely normal. Small groups, one familiar teacher every week, and a short show-and-tell for grown-ups at the end of term.
