“I would like to really thank Mike for the continuous support and updates through the recruitment process and for understanding. Mike was available out of hours and always got back to me, he sent me links and helped me prepare for the interview. It was a really quick process and I thank this company so much, I highly recommend this company and I couldn't of done it without your help or support. Thanks again :)”

“School of Play has been awesome for our daughter. It is safe, secure, she is fully engaged with the activities and comes home smiling about her day. Would certainly recommend.”

“My little boy (3) has been attending TNA since just after just 1st birthday and will soon be turning 4. He does the lil Beatz dance class and he attends musical theatre. He loves attending Dance and Drama each week and has made lots of friends. He adores all the staff and has a good relationship with some of the girls in the older classes too. My son has a lot of energy and attending these classes has helped him learn positive ways to Chanel that energy and his listening ears have improved massively. I would highly recommend TNA to anyone looking for extra classes for their children. TNA isn’t just a dance studio, it’s a community, a family ♥️”

“I cannot recommend BSA enough! Since joining BSA 16 years ago, I am still a part of the family now. It is a dance school where confidence is built and friends are made for life. With amazing teachers and opportunities, it is no wonder I couldn’t wait to go back and join adult tap. If you’re thinking about sending your child to dance, there really is nowhere better than Bates Stage Academy!”

“Absolutely love being a part of such an amazing cheer family. My daughter has been coming since she is 3 (now 5) and her confidence, ability and self belief has progressed massively!! For her to experience such an amazing and lovely cheer family and have so many friendships shes developed whilst here is all I could of asked for. Also as a parent to be apart of it is brilliant and nothing beats comp days!! Love love love!!!!”

“Atomic is an amazing dance school with a warm, positive atmosphere and truly talented instructors. Both my daughter and I really enjoy our classes there. It’s a place where we feel welcomed, encouraged, and excited to learn. Highly recommend for dancers of any age!”

“Corey has been a member of Stage and Screen since March when he joined part way through the rehearsals for The Sound of Music having been cast as the role of Max. We honestly can not speak highly enough of Sophie and Matt and all the staff at Stage and screen. They have nurtured and encouraged Corey to be the best he can be on stage whilst making every weekly session enjoyable. The end of year performance of The Sound of Music was just amazing, super professional with great casting and so much talent! I would also like to add that Corey has made a great group of new friends who have the same common interest and champion/encourage eachother along the way. Corey absolutely loves going to rehearsals and can not wait to be part of the next show Legally Blonde whilst also being part of the stage and screen community. I can not thank you enough for giving Corey a great platform to continue his love of performing in musical theatre.”

“We went for Smugs one man show which was absolutely brilliant, it is a small theatre and worked well to give a really intimate feel. A lot going on behind the scenes to provide such a great show, for me it was everything the theatre should be, special mention for front of house staff who were lovely. Wish them ATB for the future.”

“We saw Neil Simon’s play “The Odd Couple” last night at Wigan Little Theatre. It was an excellent production, really funny, well acted, costumes and sets were superb. Theatre itself was a lovely old place, comfy and clean, great bar area and place for teas coffees etc in the interval. This is a gem of a place, run and maintained entirely by volunteers. A local treasure belonging to Wigan ❤️. Can’t wait for our next visit.”

“The most welcoming, friendly and fun studio in Manchester! The instructors are fantastic, supportive and work to your level in every class. The variety of classes on offer far outstrips any other studio in Manchester and they offer great value for money. Easily accessible, just 10 minutes from Piccadilly Gardens, if you are looking to start out or to drop by and practice insane tricks, Polefire is without a doubt the best place to go!”
