Students taking more than one class get a double benefit: a broader range of skills and a discount on course fees. Take more than one class in the same session and get $25 off each additional class.

We maintain firm enrolment limits. Class sizes range can range from 8-16 students, depending on the age of the students and the type of program. Students must be in the published age range by the mid-point of the course. For example, if the course is Improv for Ages 13-15 starting in September and ending in March (20-week course) and your child is 12 at the start of the course, they must be turning 13-years-old before January to enrol.
