The team is amazing

The team is amazing. I was sceptical when joining if Perform would help Anya's confidence but I am blown away with how much you have helped her. She looks forward to attending and doesn't hesitate to enter the room. She is buzzing afterwards and her imagination comes alive. Anya can't wait to attend on a Tuesday and is disappointed that she has to wait until the afternoon! Thank you to Kira and the team, you guys are fantastic. I'm so glad we met Sam at the library and we gave this a go.

Blown Away!

I am blown away with how taken my son is to Perform. We were apprehensive parents with a child who was growing increasingly anxious of new situations and was retreating into his shell. But Fleur was amazing taking the time ahead of his first session to get to know how best to support him as an individual. The results speak for themselves- my child was overjoyed after his first session, beaming all afternoon. He now runs into the class with his arms in the air with excitement as soon as he sees Fleur and Amy. He doesn't even say bye to me! Outside of sessions, we've noticed a huge difference in his confidence. He's talking to new people more, has made a new friend at his preschool, and has become much more expressive and articulate. He carries himself taller and he seems to have grown up so much these last few weeks. I cannot recommend Perform enough. I only wish they ran holiday classes near me as my son is really going to miss coming all summer!

So impressed

I have been so impressed by Perform. James is incredible with the children and our son has loved his time there so far. It's so professional yet welcoming - I can't stop talking about it with friends and family. Thank you all!

I cannot recommend this drama class enough! Both of my children are completely in love with it. They enjoy every session and genuinely look forward to going every single week. It has done wonders for their confidence, self-expression, and social skills. The environment is so positive and encouraging. Thank you for creating such a wonderful experience for them!

Another holiday camp

Another holiday camp, another Oscar-worthy performance (at least in my opinion ). My son had the best time at Perform's Easter camphe came home full of energy, confidence, and surprisingly convincing monkey behavior. The Jungle Book was a hit, and his role as one of the monkeys was taken VERY seriously (we're still hearing the sound effects at home). Huge thank you to the amazing team for making it so fun and memorablesee you at the next one!

We are so impressed by the quality of the classes at Perform. I have seen the impact the classes have had on our daughters confidence and how excited she is to come every week. Lucy is absolutely amazing and our daughter always tells us how funny she is. We can see how engaging the classes are and are so happy we signed up. We can't thank you enough!

Cannot recommend enough

My daughter comes out raving about her classes each week, she absolutely loves it. I really enjoy the feedback Sam gives each week, it's clear how enthusiastic she is and my daughter has really taken to her (even bringing sam a picture she'd drawn today). I think the app, the stickers and the newsletters are all excellent and add another layer of engagement for the children.

Building confidence one class at a time

A lovely class to build confidence for my 5 year old; encouraging her to be assertive, articulate, brave and expressive. She counts down the days each week, knowing how much fun she will have. The fact she learnt her lines without any help at home, shows just how engaged she is.

Teachers are fantastic, organisation is a mess

Teachers are fantastic, but company policy is a mess. They can change venue at any point, with very little notice, and no chance to refund the class. Their only excuse is "terms and conditionts", kudos to the legal team.

Edit:

The change of venue was indeed very close, but in rush I found the wrong one so I could not attend. Still the experience was a bit confusing.

Reply from Perform

Thanks for your review and we are sorry to read your comments. Our venues are sometimes unavailable for reasons beyond our control and we always give as much notice as we can if we have to provide an alternative. In this case, the venue was changed from one in N1 2TX to N1 2DF which is an 8 minute walk away.

My 9-year-old daughter's favourite activity

My 9-year-old daughter absolutely ADORES Perform - it's her favourite thing to do! She loves working with Rachel and Tom and really enjoys the games (as well as learning the show). It's been a great way for her to meet and interact with people outside of school too, which will help her no end when she moves up to secondary in due course.

Perform is great experience

Perform is great, my son loves attending every session and always comes out happy and bubbly telling me what he has achieved in that session, the staff are also very friendly and welcoming, my 5 year old has thrived so much after only attending for 5 weeks this includes his trail lesson too! The songs can be a little tricky for the younger children but the staff are very encouraging and helpful ! I would definitely recommend perform

Love it and wish we had joined earlier

Love it and wish we had joined earlier. Sam is amazing! Our son would much rather apparently go to Perform full time than go to school. Sam has such a lovely genuine interest and empathy for the children. We love that the plays are not based on particular celebrations/cultures which enables diverse varied children to take part.

I have recently discovered Perform

I have recently discovered Perform for my grandchild , who I was worried about and her confidence . I bring her after school once a week for an hour and she is truly shining .She is in week 4 and is really enjoying the class , she adores her teacher Jade , it is a drop off class , but I stay in an adjacent room and love to hear to the delightful singing , music & fun ..why didn’t they have this when I was a child ? Why don’t they do a class for oldies like me ? ..fabulous organisation thank you Perform ❤️❤️

Great class!

Mylo is great with the children and so welcoming. Our son feels shy at the beginning of each class but Mylo supports him and he soon joins in, having a wonderful time. He's always singing the songs at home and teaching us the actions!

Our son has been part of the program for just a month, and it's already exciting to see the positive impact. He eagerly anticipates Friday nights and adores Ila, who has been incredibly friendly and motivating. His passion and self-assurance have noticeably increased through the sessions. Unlike doing his homework, he shows a genuine interest in reading and learning his lines. As he's getting more acquainted with the performance, his character portrayal is showing more depth. Witnessing this transformation is truly delightful! We're immensely grateful to the whole team.

Although it's only been a month since my son started attending, his excitement for Friday nights is evident. He absolutely adores Ila, whose warm welcome, support, and encouragement have been outstanding. It's wonderful to witness his growing enthusiasm and boost in confidence following each session. Unlike his usual homework, he eagerly reads and memorizes lines, and we're beginning to notice more of his character's expression as he gets more comfortable with the performance. Watching this transformation has been a sheer delight! A big thank you to everyone involved.
