About Ecco

Ecco Theatre Arts offers classes and individual tuition to people of all ages and abilities. We specialise in classes for children, young people and adults who wish to learn something new or build on their existing skill-set in singing, dance and drama.

Performing Arts can assist young people in finding confidence in presenting themselves to the world in whatever career they choose to pursue. It can assist with communication, coordination, lateral thinking, problem-solving and also be a great stress release and energy burner!

Students can start with us as young as 2 years old. We have programmes suited to all ages and levels of ability. Ecco work towards productions throughout the year. We train students to have the ability, knowledge and confidence to take exams through the I.D.T.A. examination body.

We have many different styles of dance that children and young people can study here at Ecco. They include Ballet, Tap, Theatre Dance, Slow Dance, Freestyle Disco, Contemporary, Commercial, Rock and Roll and Musical Theatre. You can come to as many different classes as you like during the week.

All our staff are IDTA qualified and DBS checked, please see our staff page to get to know us.

"Ecco's mission is to offer high-quality performing arts lessons at an affordable price for all. We aim to encourage children in the art form they chose to do, helping pupils with their self-confidence and self-esteem."
