How does the Part Time Program work?

We design your bespoke weekly program to supplement your existing training. You attend classes with the full-time students at your appropriate level. All classes are available and you can take part in as many or as few as works within your schedule.

Who attends the Part Time Program?

Students wishing to supplement their existing training as a bridge to full time tuition, those who need to rehabilitate from injury, as a stop gap between school and employment, or in order to prepare for auditions.

What age can I start the Part Time Program?

13 is an appropriate age, however we will consider younger students who demonstrate they are physically and mentally ready.

How are private lessons incorporated into the program?

All full time students have weekly private coaching with Gilly. Our part time students may also arrange private coaching sessions which are subject to availability.
