Nicola has taught many children that have gone on to get agents, star in commercials and even perform in the West End. If you’re serious about performing then you will have the opportunity to learn and grow at a quick pace. And if you simply enjoy singing and dancing and just want to have fun, you will certainly do a lot of that too!!
