What parents say

We love Perform and the fact that this is not "mini-star factory", but rather a much more encompassing program, developing a range of skills, much wider than simply acting. My 3 children have developed self-confidence, ease while speaking in public, and love of performing, that will be beneficial to them, no matter what they'll choose to do for a career.

My daughter is really enjoying her classes. Suzie is wonderful, she engages with the children really well and takes the time to speak to them and the parents one on one each week. I really like the weekly emails about what the children have been working on and everything is planned and carried out to a very high standard

Charlie is always happy to go to drama and we have seen a big improvement in her confidence. She loves showing us her new dance moves and songs too.

I'm absolutely thrilled by this class! Hugo is so happy on a Monday and goes in without so much as turning around to say goodbye. He is full of beans when he comes out. Really pleased!

Alathea has really enjoyed her first few weeks and has settled in quickly. She always seems completely engaged and looks like she is having lots of fun which is great for me to see.

Rhia has exceptionally quickly grasped Eliza’s personality and tailored her response to ensure she feels comfortable and gets the best from her time at PERFORM. At home we have noticed a change in her confidence and her teacher has noted she is volunteering and putting herself forward for activities in class.

Jake  gets really excited each week and can’t wait to get in and start performing! Jessica is lovely and has great enthusiasm. You can see her passion towards the children and her job.

Every week Freya is really excited about going to perform and even asks to go on other days! She really loves it and it has really boosted her confidence. The venue was perfect for us as Freya already knew it and so was familiar which had eased her transition. Samantha is fabulous.

My daughter has loved every single moment of the class and has learnt some dance moves. Naomi has been very welcoming, her energy; inspiring and motivational.

Everything about Perform is fantastic Maisie is really enjoying her sessions.

Perform is fantastic. The teachers are great, so friendly, nice, encouraging and really helping boost Isabelle's confidence. She's now much more chatty and confident. I would recommend Perform to every parent. 

Isobel loves perform, she practices the dances and songs at home, it’s really brought out her confidence.

I can't praise the classes enough; great for building confidence and staff are always inspiring and professional They connect well with the children and available to talk at any time. 

Willow loves this class and looks forward to coming along every Monday. Lisa-Marie has so much energy and is amazing with the children. I have never been to such a well communicated after school activity. The information that is provided is great!

I’m very impressed by the pro active, thoughtful way each session is run, the recap at the end for parents is encouraging. It is great to know that Ethan is not just being ‘entertained’ for the hour, but pro actively being taught new life skills - and he always comes out absolutely full of life.

My first impressions of the class and Laura were really positive and after just two classes Jude was showing excitement about going. It’s great seeing Jude so keen to be involved in something away from home/school.

Abi loves her class! She always comes out buzzing and singing her heart out.

Poppy is always very excited to see Charlotte and always runs right into the classes with such enthusiasm! Very glad I signed her up. She really enjoyed her last performance and I am looking forward to seeing her progress.

Communication has always been very clear, friendly and efficient. Emma felt at home immediately and we appreciate the interest in every child's well-being. The facilitators are really kind, energetic and professional. Thank you!

Perform is a fantastic class that teaches the children to let go of their inhibitions and gives them confidence to shine. The producers are all amazing and are so good with the children. Darcie looks forward to coming to the group each week.

I am blown away at how amazingly well Isabelle has come along since starting Perform. Her confidence has already improved so much and I can also see a difference with her imaginative play. Isabelle has really come out of her shell.

My girls are really enjoying their Perform classes. I was looking for something different and nothing else had appealed to me, until I came across Perform's website. It is bringing out the confidence in my girls and I am already noticing a different in them.

Anton describes his Perform club as the best club he has ever been to! He looks forward to each class

I’m absolutely blown away by how much my daughter loves this class! The teachers are so enthusiastic and encouraging that I feel I’ve hit gold in finding this class! I cannot praise this class enough!

My son is one of the youngest in the class and I feel that both the teachers have a lovely welcoming manner and are very patient with him. He enjoys the classes and talks about them a lot at home. Freddie loves the weekly stickers and this is a nice way to prompt discussion of what he has been doing.

Really impressed with Perform. It does seem to be making a real and positive impact on my son's confidence and communication - and this is after only a few weeks. Its a wonderful thing to see.

Daisy loves the classes and they are very professionally run. I like the ethos of Perform - i.e. it’s about building confidence and life skills not necessarily about a career in performance.

Our daughters absolutely adore Perform! Rachel & Zoe are brilliant- warm, kind, fun, engaging and highly skilled. They know exactly how to bring out the best in the children, with their knowledge, experience and infectious energy. 

As grandparents, this is the best gift we could ever give Mia. She goes in excited and comes out fulfilled. How clever to mix drama/singing/dance with many aspects of social skills and life learning experiences - all under the umbrella of fun! 

Both Lucie and Hannah absolutely love Perform. It’s the highlight of their week! It has been wonderful to see them grow in confidence and get so much pleasure from learning the songs and performing the shows.

My daughter has started to really shine since attending Perform. You can hear her enjoyment from her classes when she speaks about her teachers and what they have done. Her nursery has noticed, she is a lot more confident and outspoken. 

Both of my children love Perform. Anya is in her 3rd term and loves everything about it. She loves being centre stage and Perform is helping to control her energy while retaining her enthusiasm. Ewan has just started and after his first lesson, asked everyday whether it was Perform day. 

Ollie and Phoebe are both great with the children and their enthusiasm is astounding. Despite not knowing any other children in the group, Zoe looks forward to the sessions all week and has felt very welcome from the start.

My daughter looks forward to her Perform class every week. I really enjoyed watching the end of term show and I couldn’t believe how well she followed direction. So glad we found you! It’s everything we wanted for Maddy and more!

Kelly is such an enthusiastic and friendly teacher. My son cannot wait to get to her class and comes out so happy! He loves the apps and always wants to listen to the CD in our car!

I am so impressed with the whole experience! Ashton usually struggles with things, especially school, but he learns through Perform and it’s the highlight of his week. He’s always excited to see which sticker he will get and he likes to listen to his CD in the car.

My son loved Perform from the moment they visited his school, and I've been bowled away at how much he enjoys and looks forward to each class. All the material and themes seems perfect for his age. I can't believe that we're soon to come to a performance where he'll speak in front of everyone and sing, it's wonderful!

My children both look forward to the class every week and it's great that they can BOTH attend together which should strengthen their relationship even more. Their energy levels after the class are through the roof. They are come out animated and happy and have clearly enjoyed themselves tremendously.

Max always speaks so positively about the classes. It’s enjoyable to take him and watch him flourish.

Matilda loves it more than any other after school activity. She is excited every Monday.

Elisa loves her drama class. Perform allows Elisa to relax and finish her "working week" on a highly positive note. The class gives her even more then we anticipated.

The Perform is amazing. The teachers are very professional. My son asks me every day when the next class is. I'm very happy and my son is too!

Naomi is having a great time, and is growing in confidence. We can’t wait to watch her in the Circus play in December. Thank you all for being so great, patient and making all the new children welcome!

It’s been a joy to watch Aarav’s Growing enthusiasm during classes. He is delighted with the group and eagerly looks forward to the next one. The Perform format is amazing and your Team Leader’s focus on building the Children's’ confidence is wonderful. We are so happy with our choice. 

It's more than I could have expected. The teachers seem to make every child feel very special. Tia and the staff have a wonderful way with the children and I am so pleased with all we are getting from the class - it's much more than a normal after-school club.

I was really impressed with the care Miranda took to find out about Ellie before she started and just how much she cares about the development of each of the children in her class. It's great to see how much the children enjoy it and I'm so pleased with how welcome Ellie has been made to feel. I would have no hesitation in recommending Perform to anyone!

Polly absolutely loves it and as a family we're all enjoying the songs. I'm very impressed with the quality of the script and music for Hercules Beat - a very professionally run organisation.

Imani looks forward to Perform every week. Suzie is so lovely with the children and I love the email feedback every week. It’s great to know what they’ve been doing in class. Thank you again for making Imani feel so welcome.

My child was made highly welcome. The enthusiastic staff allow the children to express themselves. They are super. It seems perfect pitch for the age group. I am thrilled that I stumbled across your organisation.

This isn’t a class, it’s a life-changing experience. Thank you for everything you put into it, it doesn’t go unnoticed and makes all the difference. I just wish everyone got the opportunity to do Perform... Thank you doesn’t even cover it.

I am so pleased I  found Perform, I think it's the perfect balance for this age group of fun and skills. Robbie has always been incredibly approachable and teaches with a great enthusiasm that has meant Martha has settled into the classes very quickly. Thank you.

My favourite thing about the class, other than Charlotte's infectious enthusiasm, is the way that life skills are integrated into each class in a way that the children don't realise they're doing anything more than having fun!

This is my daughter's favourite club ever (and she has done a fair few!). After the free taster, she asked if she could go back the next day. Having the CD with great songs is also a massive positive bonus.

Archie's been coming nearly three years now and is still enthusiastic about it. New games and activities keep it fresh. And both boys love Abby, who balances fun with discipline really well. Very happy to recommend!

Anya absolutely loves her sessions and her teachers. She looks forward to Perform every week and she is always buzzing with energy and excitement before and after her classes. I can't fault Perform.

The beaming smile you see when Annabelle finishes a class with Oliver is so wonderful to see. She has grown in confidence and thoroughly enjoys singing and dancing all the time. Love, love, love the class and wish we could all take part!

The teachers are so professional and really listen to what I am looking to get from the classes. They are so good with the children and really care how they progress.

A fantastic drama club which inspires oodles of confidence and fun.

Rachel is incredible, so dedicated and professional and really knows how to get the best out of the children and to help them with their development. My daughter loves going to Perform and runs in happily each week.

There is something about Perform which is different to other drama classes - it feels as if the teacher is more interested in my son's individual needs, progress and happiness than anything else.

Max is new to the class - but is loving it. Lucy is fantastic - Energetic, perceptive, fun, & in control. He gets more out of this class in terms of life skills and development than four days a week at Nursery!

Poppy is so excited to go to her class every week and has been singing and dancing along to the CD all week. A wow of a success. Thank you.

Archie just loves Perform and whilst only having been doing it for 4 or 5 weeks, I was so impressed with the show yesterday - he cant wait for next term and was asking if it started today! we feel with have found something that really keeps Archie engaged, focused and catches his imagination.

I really like the weekly feedback by e-mail. The girls love the stickers and really look forward to going to the class each week. It is a good carrot for getting homework done on Saturday morning.

It is unusual for Ben to settle so easily into a new situation. We are sending him to this course to build his confidence and he is thoroughly enjoying. He describes Samantha as 'very funny' and loves to go each week. The stickers for the poster are also a big hit and he is loving the Funky Fairy!

My daughter really looks forward to a Monday night, I like the fact there is no pressure for them to 'get it right' its fun and is helping to develop her confidence. I really like the way the class is run and will be paying for next term.

A great balance of discipline and fun. Cooper comes out of class completely engaged and enthused. It's a great end to his week and start to the weekend!

It is the only after school activity that my son has never complained about. You have obviously cracked a very good formula, mixing fun and educational activities. I recommend it to everyone.

The first thing Wilf says every morning is "Is it a Perform day?" and 6 out of 7 of those days he starts the day disappointed. Keep up the fantastic work - what you do is truly amazing. Thank you. BTW the App is a HUGE hit in this house...

We are really impressed with the organisation, from the app, CD, stickers etc to the lovely weekly email sent to give details on what the class covered. Our entire household and extended family now know all the "under the sea" songs off by heart!

Bella absolutely loves it. She wrote a letter to Sam after her second session saying that Perform was the best thing in the entire world!

It is the highlight of their week! Both my children really enjoy the class and the CD is on all the time at home - they love the stories and spend lots of time dancing around our living room!

We are delighted that we found Perform! Both boys are absolutely loving it - they come out full buzzing of stories, energy and their eyes shine a bit brighter...it's been great for them both. Love it!

Excellent - Joshua loves to receive a sticker at the end of each class to add to his poster. The e-mail each day after the class highlights the main focus of the class, I can then ask Joshua about this.

My two children love it. Grace's enthusiasm is really catchy, I attended a 15 minute performance and even I felt like getting up and taking part.

A very professional organisation. The energy & enthusiasm from the teachers is impressive. Excellent & useful feedback.

I am impressed with Perfom and the resources that support the class/theme for the term, for example the poster/stickers; CD and IPad app. This has enabled me to continue the work and support Aaron at home, including the dances and songs.

Absolutely excellent, Poppy loves it and is so confident - this has spilled out to how she is at school now too. Am very impressed and thrilled at all aspects - especially how professional and communicative Perform is, thank you.

Isla loves the classes and looks forward to them every week. Elise is a great teacher and incredibly enthusiastic. I think the mixed ages class works well as Isla looks up to the older children.

Love that you are able to make-up classes if you miss and the small class size.

It is the best money I've ever spent on an after school activity. The children are totally engaged for the entire session. They absolutely love going and it is lovely to see their faces of sheer pleasure, excitement, laughter etc. I am so impressed, Oliver is absolutely amazing.

Fantastic ! Hannah loves singing and dancing and is very expressive so this is a lovely way to channel her creativity ! Also I hope it will help her concentrate a bit more without distraction........!

Both Sophie and Josh love going to David's class, it the one activity that they both ask 'is it time to go yet'. I am so impressed with David, he really knows how to get the best out of the children.

I'm hugely impressed by your company, from the actual lessons; to the show literature; to the songs that are available on the app; to the follow up e-mail after each class! Wow, wow, wow. THANK YOU!
