Build your career on a strong foundation...

Our Professional Foundation Course in Acting & Theatre Arts will enable you to develop an essential performance practice through training in acting, movement and voice. The course is built to be enriching yet affordable, preparing you for whatever your chosen next steps may be: whether further training at a top conservatoire or jumping straight into the industry.

​The course takes place over a full academic year and culminates in a production at YATI’s home theatre in Islington. During your three terms, you will take classes in acting, movement theatre, voice, screen acting, musical theatre, stage combat, audition technique and devised practise, as well as be given essential insights into the industry and opportunities to see productions and network with professional artists.

This summer we are expanding our usual summer provision into a two week training and performance course for young people.

With one week spent building skills and community, before we dive into intensive rehearsals for a fresh take on a modern play in week two. Performances will be hosted at a local professional venue. It promises to be an unforgettable summer, free of charge!

Dates: July 29th to August 10th
