Welcome to the Edge.

Welcome to the Edge Performing Arts Academy where we want to realise your child's potential - for life! Whether your child is 4 or 16, outgoing or shy, there is something for everyone at The Edge:

Drama - great for building self confidence, encouraging creativity and helping communication;

Dance - wonderful for self expression, poise and fitness;

Singing - good for vocal development and a powerful emotional outlet.

We have classes for young people from 4 to 16, in the following age ranges:

4-7 years (otherwise known as Little Steps),
8-12 years and 13-16 years.

In order for you to make a decision about whether The Edge is right for your child, we offer a FREE introductory session at both our schools in Bideford and Barnstaple.

Our students perform regularly and will be involved in staging a major production annually. We also give end of term reports and plan to hold graded exams in the future.

Just take a look at our website for more information, and contact us to book your child's FREE introductory session!
