CELEBRATING OVER 30 YEARS IN PERFORMING ARTS TRAINING

INTRODUCTION

APO Arts Academy is one of Australia’s premiere vocational arts training institutions. The APO strategy is two-fold. We believe success is built by developing raw talent, not only to meet industry requirements, but also to inspire and encourage students to achieve their individual artistic potential. We are fortunate to have a teaching faculty of international & national reputations to deliver the course requirements, and instil out students with a sense of integrity & inspiration. Our staff is supported by an administration team with an outstanding track record in arts management, and broad understanding of the nature and dynamics of the professional industry.

APO is a key player in the provision of artistic talent for a range of theatrical productions, ballet & dance companies & commercial events in Australia and overseas. On stage & screen, our graduate students are our ambassadors on a global scale.

Like any professional career, the performing arts disciplines require training: a systematic, sustained and intensive physical and mental training methodology, in preparation for the demands of the professional theatre, dance & entertainment industries. The current professional climate requires artists to possess more than just a belief in themselves. Discipline, commitment and strong technical foundations, are all qualities that feature strongly with successful performers who build viable and sustainable careers.

APO Arts Academy, provides industry focused training in the areas of Musical Theatre and Dance.
Our courses have a strong focus on practical components and are performance based; supported by allied studies and theoretical units.
