“We hired Kes for facepainting at my daughter's 3rd birthday party. She was simply brilliant. The kids were over the moon with it and so were the parents, as for many, it was their first experience of it. Kes is an extremely talented artist and facepainter. I will have no hesitation in recommending her to friends and family. Thank you for being one of the highlights of the party!”

“A truly wonderful place for your kids to grow in confidence and in love with performing arts even if they aren’t a musical type. Stephen is an excellent principle who cares for the kids and the school. Both of our girls are having the most fun time every week for the last 8 years and counting. Highly recommended Kew Stagecoach and the team!”

“Drama in the Woods is a fantastic way for children to spend a week outdoors blowing away the cobwebs, making friends and being creative. The instructors are the perfect mix of professional, caring and fun. My kids love it.”

“Our son has attended this school for several years. It has helped him to develop as a performer and as a young man. The staff are superb and the family environment found here nurtures creativity and builds confidence in a safe space. We cannot thank them enough for all they have done for our son.”

“Benjamin loves going to Boom arts ( he goes on a Friday and in the holidays). Paisley always greets us with a warm and friendly smile. Ben is especially fond of Sam and Miss Isla. Ben has grown in confidence and loves showing family members his newest moves! So proud of him achieving an Honours award in his dance exam. The whole team are amazing, organised, supportive, talented and understanding. Thank you to all the team for all their hard work. We appreciate you and highly recommend you.”

“Amazing performing arts school. Offers an astonishing range of classes, taught by first-class teachers and an end of year showcase that rivals West End productions. Couldn't recommend more highly.”

“I found this course really interesting and thoroughly enjoyable. I have learnt so much and have expanded my knowledge of art history in an engaging way. The depth of information gained from each module and from writing my assignments provided me with the opportunity to further investigate and build up my knowledge. The excellent and encouraging support and positive feedback received from my tutor, Libby Anson, was invaluable and helped me exceed my expectations. I appreciated the flexibility to study at my own pace without the pressure of deadlines. This has inspired me to learn more. I will definitely feel more competent and knowledgeable next time I visit an art gallery. Well done, a fabulous course.”

“My daughter has been attending LESTA for 5 years and she absolutely loves it! It gives her a sense of purpose and belonging. The shows that Miss Leanne puts on are just incredible. The dedication and hard work really shines through her teaching. The pupils are a little community. It's really lovely to see. I highly recommend LESTA!”

“It is a nice dance school I have learnt so much from it and we have so much fun every time I go to dance!”

“Lucy and Becky ran our daughter’s 6th birthday party. Was a dance class themed party with performance to parents at the end. Lucy discussed songs for the playlist and format of the party with me in advance. Arrived promptly and took all the kids and taught them dance moves, whilst the parents got to chat! They then helped us with sandwiches and cakes before resuming the lesson then a fun end of party performance! Very professional, and great with the kids. Highly recommend”

“PopGems is an incredible place where children can truly explore their creativity and talents. The staff are not only dedicated but also passionate about creating a positive, welcoming atmosphere where kids can dance, act, and sing in a fun and supportive environment. It's clear that a lot of hard work goes into making every class enjoyable, and it’s evident how much the kids love being there. I highly recommend PopGems to any parent looking for a place where their child can grow, have fun, and discover their creative potential. It’s been a wonderful experience!”

“Our daughter had simply the best time at the PPAS summer school. The classes were varied and brilliantly taught, the two performances at the Leicester Square Theatre and Covent Garden piazza were so exciting and the friendships formed have built up her confidence so much. She is desperate to sign up for next year!!”

“Really recommend Becky and her team for starting or continuing pole dance. I’ve been to a few pole schools in London and the South East, and haven’t had the same welcoming and community feeling as I have with Becky and team. I joined in Jan 2020 just before the pandemic, so only had a short time before moving online (then back in studio again) but Becky handled the transition so well and made everything as easy as possible. All 4 instructors are so friendly, patient and knowledgeable, coming to BB Pole Studio is my favourite part of my week”

“Welcoming, friendly and fun! There were a few absolute beginners like me in the class and within the hour we were able to move around the dancefloor and enjoy the music. Great atmosphere at the social dancing after the class. You can bring up your drinks and the bar staff will bring food orders upstairs too. Highly recommend!”

“My daughter recently had the opportunity to attend a drama lesson, and I couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. The session was engaging, inspiring, and full of energy. It was wonderful to see her come home excited and confident The instructor created a warm and encouraging environment that helped her feel comfortable and expressive from the start. Thank you for offering such a fantastic opportunity—this has truly sparked a new passion in her! Thanks Emma, Lisa and the rest of the team...well appreciated. Love Nicolex”

“My Daughter has been going to stagecoach for many years now and really looks forward to her classes every Saturday. I’ve seen her confidence grow and stagecoach is definitely the one to thank for that. The experiences offered to the kids are brilliant, from doing shows at local fairs, workshops, and even big theatre productions. Felicity and the team are so passionate and professional, I would definitely recommend for any child who is interested in all things singing, dancing and acting!”

“I cannot recommend Brilliant Theatre highly enough. My daughter is with the company for 18 months and has progressed so much in that time in terms of confidence and has developed a deep appreciation for musical theatre. David and the team, whilst uber professional, make participation so much fun for the kids. The team bring out the best in the kids and help them all shine. Until you’re part of Brilliant it’s hard to explain just how great it is. If you join up, you’ll get it!”

“Oliver & his team at PQA Richmond provide such a warm, positive environment. My daughter’s confidence has soared since she joined 4 years ago. She has made new friends & had some fantastic opportunities. Thank you PQA Richmond!”

“My daughter 3 years old joined to the summer term. She was the youngest one. The beginning, she didn't want to stay without me. However the teachers helped her very well everytime and she enjoyed! She made a lot of friends there and I can see that she is now much more confidence and friendly to anyone. Thank you for the amazing experience.”

“The staff at 360 Arts are amazing! They are all genuine, kind hearted people who care so much about their kids and the parents. A fantastic performing arts school and talent agency. Always totally committed to creating opportunities and making dreams come true. So happy we found 360 Arts!!!”

“Achieve Arts are amazing! My both daughters have been going for a couple of years now and absolutely love it. All the teachers and the Leadership team are absolutely lovely, and you can see how much care and thought they put in the curriculum so that the children can develop their skills, confidence and have fun at the same time. And you should see their annual shows, it's West End quality!”

“Couldn’t have wished for better training! I achieved everything I wanted and more and that’s solely down to the wonderful community setting and care of the staff and students! Cannot recommend highly enough, I will be forever grateful for Reynolds!”

“Amazing experience. Ann is so knowledgable. She pushed us to be creative and gave us the guidance and support to achieve our ideas! Such fantastic value for money. A warm welcome, a fantastic hands on workshop and a lovely lunch too! A wonderful way to spend a day. Can’t recommend highly enough. Can’t wait to see how these come out!”

“So happy I went to Ushuaia for my first tattoo. Right from the first contact with the lovely Sean and then the brilliantly talented Rhiannon who turned my very personal idea into the most beautiful tattoo. It turned out exactly as I had imagined! The whole experience was an absolute joy!! Wouldn’t go anywhere else even though I live in Amsterdam! Thanks so much guys xx”

“I visited Lin while I was in London for a couple of days, and she was absolutely incredible. I got four tattoos during my time there, and Lin made the entire process easy, professional, and comfortable. The whole staff was extremely friendly and welcoming, and the studio itself was spotless — clean, safe, and professional from start to finish. They were also very accommodating, which made the experience even better. I highly recommend Lin and the team if you’re looking for great work and a great atmosphere in London.”

“I went for cover my old tattoo. My first visit was very welcoming and was easy to make an appointment. Evita was my artist and she did very great job, she made me feel comfortable and she is very professional. I'm happy with my experience and I planning to come back.”

“Sacred Art London is so welcoming and inclusive. Very chill atmosphere too. (The decor of the studio is on point too. Lots of plants as well, very calming) I worked with James to get a one of my past ferrets paw print in tattoo form. James was so lovely and accommodating regarding everything. I'm a newbie to tattoos you see and so was pretty clueless. I'm Autistic and have physical issues like EDS, chronic pain and fatigue etc so really appreciated James taking the time to have a consultation with me beforehand to answer all my questions so I could prepare myself. On the day he made sure I was all good throughout the whole process and kindly explained everything as we went so I understood. Honestly really interesting ! Even the part where I was being stabbed by the needle multiple times haha. I could really see his commitment to his craft and the care he put in to make sure it was what I wanted. Aftercare was kindly explained too and if I have any issues I can always contact them which is fantastic! Overall fantastic experience 100/10 would highly recommend ! The other artists that work at Sacred Art Tattoos are also AMAZING I just haven't had a chance to work with them YET! Much Love Kelsie”

“First tattoo and Claudio was definitely the best artist to get it done with. He was easy to communicate with and super friendly. His tattoo skills are top notch and even though I got the tattoo on my rib area (understandingly the most painful spot), it didn’t hurt one bit!! Overall, Claudio is an amazing artist.”
