SPECIALIST CLASSES
At BYTES we hold auditions annually for our Specialist classes. A specialist class is not for anyone new to the performing arts, nor is it based upon a person’s age. Just because someone is 16 for instance, does not mean they go automatically in to Studio B and many students choose NOT to go into the Specialist classes because they prefer to have fun and cannot commit more of their time each week to extending this area. That is perfectly fine too.
Rather these classes are for a young person who shows definite potential and has already performed at a level of excellence. These classes are for performers who have already decided that they want to commit time and energy in to improving their techniques, approaching their rehearsals with a heightened level of focus and attainment, their focus and motivation must therefore be of the highest of standards.
