Clients have the opportunity to take the internationally recognised and accredited external examinations of The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (knows as LAMDA) as well as the RADA Shakespeare Certificate.
We work with children from age 4 and adults of any age. Classes take the form of private tuition at our own premises and clients come from all over Cardiff, the Vale of Glamorgan and South Wales. We can also arrange training at a venue of your choice and tuition is available via Skype.
Clients work hard in our sessions but also derive a great deal of enjoyment from them. All clients learn the basic “golden rules”: speak slowly, open your mouth, end your words. You learn to listen to your speech and notice the mistakes. Then you can start to correct them with the help of tongue twisters, poems and speech exercises.
Prepared texts are used to provide variety of pitch, pace and tune. Verbal and non-verbal communication is covered with all clients of whatever age to give them poise, clarity and confidence. “We give you confidence and control of your voice and speech”
