Performing Arts and Dance in Norfolk
Updated: 31/10/2014
Some children truly bask in the glory of the bright lights whilst others benefit enormously from the confidence-boosting aspects of learning how to present themselves in a self-assured fashion. The personal rewards achieved from the performing arts are plentiful. Self discipline, good deportment, strong assertion and clear presentation are usually the results leading to a positive boost to the self-esteem.
Simply put, children learn how to manage the way they project themselves through expressive forms such as dance, drama and music, which will equip them with useful tools in other areas of their life.
The performing arts are recognised as highly favourable extracurricular activities that help children grow, so it’s certainly an avenue worth exploring. To help take the first step, we’ve included some of the best dance, drama and music providers in the area here…
