Meet the lecturers
Our small and intimate academy only has a limited number of places available, making each one precious. This means that students who study here are highly motivated and eager to discover, develop and liberate their creative spirit. The small groups allow us to offer an individualistic approach to education. We only accept 25 to 32 students per year, per programme and therefore our students get a level of personal attention and tuition which is the envy of many large and more impersonal schools.
