Sparkles Academy of Performing Arts - SAPA
Description
Sparkles Academy of Performing Arts (SAPA) offers Drama and Dance Tuition to children aged 5-15 years. We are based in the heart of Whitefield. At SAPA we strive to provide safe, fun and educational classes to all our pupils, irrespective of gender, race and ability. We understand that no two children are alike and as such, modules are designed to suit each child's individual personality and needs. Each new pupil is assigned an "ESAP" (Experienced SAPA Advanced Pupil), a mentor who will be available in class to your child throughout their first four weeks at SAPA; to make them feel welcome, show them the ropes, help them settle in, ensure they are never alone, advise them, and generally assist them during class. ESAP's are SAPA pupils that have attended SAPA classes for at least six months and are (genereally, but not limited to) Apprentices.
We not only provide the opportunity for our pupils to learn to Sing, Dance and Act, we also provide them with the ability to grow in confidence and learn important life skills through our fun and exciting classes.
