At our academy, we offer a wide range of weekly classes in Wembley and Cockburn. These classes allow our students to explore, develop, and delight in their creativity. We believe in nurturing individuals to grow as not only performers but also as valued members of the broader community.

One of our core values is to develop empathy, understanding, and respect for their team mates. We believe that collaboration and teamwork are essential skills for success in the performing arts industry. Through our classes and workshops, students learn to work together, support each other, and create meaningful connections.

We believe that every individual has a unique path, and we are here to guide and inspire them along the way. Our dedicated and experienced instructors are committed to providing the highest quality training, ensuring our students receive the best education possible.

One of our esteemed instructors, Ian Toyne, is considered one of the best acting coaches in Perth. Many professionals in the industry recognize his talent and expertise. Ian has a remarkable ability to bring out the best in his students, and his workshops are highly sought after. His dedication, kindness, and patience have made a lasting impact on countless aspiring actors, including myself.

I had the privilege of working with Ian when I was just 11 years old in Les Miserables at the Regal Theatre. Since then, we have collaborated on four more shows, and I have attended numerous classes and workshops under his guidance. Ian's mentorship has been invaluable to my acting career, and even now, in my later twenties, I still consider him one of my most important mentors and influencers.

Ian's passion for acting is contagious, and he has a unique ability to instill confidence in his students, even during their most vulnerable moments. His techniques and skills have become an integral part of my repertoire, making my journey as an actor smoother and more fulfilling. I am proud to call Ian not only a teacher but also a friend and mentor.

We are thrilled to have individuals like Ian as part of our faculty, contributing to the exceptional education we provide at the Perth Academy of Performing Arts. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced performer, we invite you to join our community and embark on a transformative journey through the performing arts.
