П🏾Great Performing Arts Academy. My daughter has been attending for just over 3 years. Her classes vary from Tap to Musical Theatre. She has learnt so much and is now very confident in her classes, to her performing on stage in their shows. There’s also a great variety of teachers, in which each teacher brings their own diverse essence of teaching and learning to each and every class. Definite 10/10 for this academy. 🙌🏾

My daughter has been with Glenlyn Academy for 7 years and she has grown in confidence and ability throughout. She loves all the classes with her favourites being acro, drama and solo singing! Glenlyn gives these children a place away from everything else where they can be themselves and thrive in a supporting environment. Over the years, Glenlyn has put on many incredible shows and has given my daughter the confidence to stand on stage and sing by herself in front of an audience of 500 people!
During lockdown, Glenlyn provided full online classes throughout which was invaluable in keeping the children

Oliver has been at Glenlyn for 3 years this year and has had the most incredible time. The training, support and performances are second to none. He has grown so much in confidence with his dancing and has enjoyed the wide variety of lessons. Musical Theatre is his passion, closely followed by Tap! A wonderful performing arts academy.
Exceptional on-line lessons throughout lockdown meant that children carried on doing what they love week in and week out and it gave them a purpose (and the parents a break!).
Thank you Glenlyn
