New London Performing Arts Centre

About the Company

New London Performing Arts Centre is a children’s charity providing fun, exciting, quality and affordable dance, drama, singing and music classes to children and young people from the age of 3 to 19 in a nurturing, non-competitive environment.

We also offer holiday workshops throughout school holidays, dance teacher training and education outreach.

NLPAC was founded by the principal, Emily Byron MBE over 20 years ago. It is a registered charity and all profits go back into providing classes and workshops for our students. NLPAC is an ISTD (Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing) accredited dance centre offering the DDE Teachers Training qualification.

NLPAC assists local schools by providing education outreach programmes to primary and secondary schools to augment their performing arts curriculum.

NLPAC is a Recognised School with the Council for Dance, Drama and Musical Theatre and has been awarded the Council’s certificate of good professional practice. Schools awarded CDMT’s Recognised School Award demonstrate to students, parents and guardians that they adhere to the standards demanded by the industry; standards designed to protect and safeguard young people whether dancing for leisure or with an eye to a career in the profession.
