OUR PROGRAM
DANCE

Our program of excellence boasts a high number of contact hours per week, taught solely by industry performers from West End, Theatre, Dance Companies, TV, Film and Cabaret.

 

Classes are individually tailored to the strengths of each student, giving a personalised training program of modules. Due to the nature of smaller year groups, every student is nurtured, supported, challenged and important. 

​

Students perform extensively over the two years, working in a professional rehearsal environment, with a wide variety of directors and choreographers. Performances may include a showcases, studio performances, events such a Move It & Can You Dance? (auditioned full school opportunity), community theatre project, solo dance performances, with each year culminating in a public, full-scale Dance production show. A standard of excellence, positive working environment and supportive peer group is promoted both in the classroom and performance setting.

COURSE CONTENT
DANCE

ASA Theatre Arts provides industry-driven training, whilst streamlining the VLUK BTEC qualification cleverly through the course. The new BTEC Nationals promote a practically based learning environment over 13 units, whilst ensuring theoretical excellence, relevant to the Performing Arts sector. The mandatory and optional content provides a balance of breadth and depth, while retaining a degree of choice for individual learners to study content relevant to their own interests and progression choices. The proportion of mandatory content ensures that all learners are following a coherent programme of study and acquiring the knowledge, understanding and skills that will be recognised and valued within the industry today.

 

Through learners performing vocational tasks, the development of appropriate vocational behaviours and transferable skills are encouraged. Transferable skills are those such as communication, teamwork, research and analysis, which are valued in both higher education and the workplace. Our approach provides rigour and balance, and promotes the ability to apply learning immediately over a wide range of contexts.

The encouragement and positivity at ASA has been second to none. Due to this training, I have been able to gain a place at The Urdang Academy. Without the continuous support, and knowledge of the industry, this wouldn't have been possible. The shows and workshops with leading dancers in the West End are so enjoyable. Alana will always be such an inspiring part of my career, and her support will always be there.

My daughter Holly has immensely enjoyed every single aspect of the whole experience of being taught at ASA Theatre Arts. The drive, culture and people have defined Holly to pursue a future career in the theatre arts. The passion is evident in all the different facets of the art, inclusive of drama, singing and dance.
