classes
At ETA we run smaller classes enabling us to focus on each and every child’s progress. Our positive environment and friendly approach mean we can pass on our love and passion of the performing arts to the next generation of stars.
We believe Performing Arts is for everyone so there’s no audition required to attend ETA. Every new prospective student will be able to attend a free trial so we can assess their ability and you can get a sense of the environment we work in. Please follow any of the links below or head over to our contact page if you have any questions.
Everyone is allocated classes based on their age group and ability. We acknowledge that students may be at different levels within their training upon joining ETA so will always do our best to accommodate everyone in a class that they feel most comfortable in.
