Try a class for free
We offer free taster sessions for most of our classes. This means you can try a class for free and then enrol afterwards if you enjoy it.
Please see our list below of the Taster Sessions currently on offer at NAPA, simply click the link under the class you are interested in trying and complete the booking form. You will receive a confirmation email with some additional useful information.
To ensure you have the best experience in your taster session, we stop taking bookings in the last few weeks of rehearsals when approaching a show, enabling you to join a class at a suitable time.
If you have any additional questions, you can contact us either at napa@northernacademy.org.uk or by telephone (01482) 310690.
