Performing Arts School Galway

We'd like to make an official announcement that dance teacher, Sarah, is FIRED up for show term to begin. 🔥
Anyone else? 😎💃

Happy International Cat Day 🐱🎭

Naturally, we couldn’t let the day pass without giving Bao Bun, Mouse, Todrick & Pocahontas their long-awaited opportunity to audition for CATS.

Between them, we have powerful vocals, impressive soprano notes, elegance, acting ability, dancing talent and undeniable stage presence.

Unfortunately, we also have stubbornness, questionable intelligence, selective listening and a complete disregard for direction. 😂

Talent? Absolutely.
Trainability? Debatable.
Main character energy? Off the charts.

Thankfully, our human students tend to take direction slightly better. 👀

Happy International Cat Day from the real stars of the show! 🐾✨

✨ A morning we'll never forget. ✨

Today we found out that SIX of our incredible students have progressed to the semi-finals of the International IDTA Musical Theatre Awards... and we couldn't be prouder. 💜

This isn't just another competition. Every year, tens of thousands of students take IDTA examinations around the world, and only a very small percentage achieve the marks needed to receive a nomination for these prestigious awards.

An even more special achievement? For some of these talented performers, this is their SECOND year in a row receiving a nomination, with even one progressing to the final last year, a true reflection of their consistency, dedication and outstanding work ethic. 🌟

Should they progress to the Grand Final, they'll be heading to Blackpool, where they'll perform and compete alongside just a handful of the highest-achieving students from around the world.

Congratulations to Muireann, Jeaic, Jamila, Liam, Lauren and Shannon. We are so proud of each and every one of you. Thank you for representing our school with such passion, professionalism and heart.

Now... fingers crossed for the finals! 🤞💜🎭

When parents first enquire about classes, they usually ask about dance styles, exams, competitions or performances.

Those things matter... but they're not the most important thing your child will leave with.

The right performing arts school should help your child become more confident, more resilient, more disciplined, more creative and more willing to believe in themselves.

It should be a place where they make lifelong friendships, learn to work as part of a team, discover how to handle setbacks, celebrate other people's successes, and realise that hard work really does pay off.

The applause fades. The costumes get packed away. The trophies gather dust.

But confidence, resilience, kindness, determination and self-belief? Those stay with them for life.

Choose a school that cares just as much about the person your child is becoming as the performer they're training to be. ❤️

There are so many amazing ones to choose from... but if you could only choose one, what would it be? 🤔

Not all performing arts schools are the same.

When you trust someone with your child's education, it's worth asking one simple question:
Who is teaching them?

At our school, every teacher is fully qualified, experienced, and passionate about helping every child reach their potential.

From their very first class to internationally recognised IDTA examinations, every student is taught by professionals who continue to invest in their own education.

Because your child deserves more than just a class, they deserve exceptional teaching.

✨ Qualified teachers.✨ Internationally recognised IDTA syllabus.✨ Performance opportunities.✨ A supportive environment where every child can thrive.

Come and experience the difference that great teaching makes.

An amazing opportunity for our students. So delighted to have Sarah with us 👏🎉
