✨ NEW SERVICES AT MAYO PERFORMANCE ACADEMY!✨

Alongside my weekly Speech & Drama classes, I’m delighted to be launching a range of new programmes designed to support children and young people in building confidence, resilience, communication skills and emotional wellbeing. 💛

Bringing together my therapeutic training & experience as well as my drama education training & experience these classes are designed specifically with creativity, connection & communication to the fore to help young people grow and thrive.

🌟 New services include🌟
• One-to-One Confidence Coaching
• Social & Emotional Learning (SEL) Programmes
• Drama for Wellbeing Programmes

Each programme is specifically tailored to the needs of the child or young person, with both individual and group sessions available and options for in-person or online support.

Through drama, storytelling, movement, creativity and therapeutic-informed approaches, these programmes can help young people to develop self-belief, express and manage emotions, strengthen communication and relationships, build resilience and, most importantly, feel confident being themselves.

Programmes are available for children and young people aged 8–17 years.

Looking forward to this and to offering another way of supporting young people to become:

💜 CONFIDENT.
💗 RESILIENT.
💙 EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATORS.

Please feel free to get in touch for more information or to discuss which programme may best suit your child.

The real learning in drama class runs deep.
With all the fun & friendships there is more magic happening.......
They’re learning how to use their voice.
How to listen — really listen — to others.
How to share ideas and trust their imagination.
How to work as part of a team.
How to think on their feet.
How to manage nerves and keep going.
How to make mistakes without giving up.
How to stand up, be seen and believe that what they have to say matters.

These aren’t just drama skills.
They’re skills for life. 💛
Confidence. Communication. Creativity. Resilience. Empathy. Courage.

Drama gives children a safe place to practise them — one game, one story, one brave little moment at a time. ✨

Enrolment open until 19th August. Pop me an email if you would like further information or a registration form🎭
