Afonso School of Performing Arts

Afonso School of Performing Arts Call us today to learn more! We aim to create a fun, yet disciplined environment in which our students can develop skills in dance, acting and singing.

Afonso School of Performing Arts is run by a husband and wife team, both West End professionals, with credits including We Will Rock You, Chicago, Jesus Christ Superstar, Top Hat, Thriller Live and BBC's The Voice UK. The classes we have on offer are in ballet, tap, jazz, commercial, musical theatre and more. We would like to encourage our pupils to participate in multiple classes, where possible,

as we believe that it produces a more well-rounded, confident performer. Our unique timetable allows for this. We also have pre-school and parent&toddler drop-in ballet classes, following the Melody Bear Syllabus. Being parents ourselves, we understand how important it is for you to see your child happy, whilst developing a skill for life, and so we ensure you that our classes will be fun, yet structured and rewarding. We follow the IDTA syllabus and aim for all student to be entered for examinations, but it is optional. We hold 3 exam sessions per year, and usually one presentation or show per year for performance opportunities.
