Sisashay Productions exist to offer children, young adults and adults the chance to learn to dance and act in a fun, safe and nurturing environment.
As a member of the school your child can expect to be taught by highly qualified teachers who are professionally trained to offer an extensive array of dance, singing and drama styles. These terms and conditions are duly set out to inform parents and children what to expect as a member of Sisashay Productions.
