From walltownchildrenstheatre.org/year-round-classes.html ↗About this program
Knuckle Down classes build strong foundations in technique, discipline, and creativity across dance, drama, and music. Whether you're new or experienced, this is the time to focus, grow, and train with purpose.
Our core youth classes in dance, drama, music, and more meet weekly and follow a seasonal calendar. Grouped by age and level, these classes provide progressive, high-quality training for students ready to commit to consistent artistic growth.
Our private lessons in voice, piano, guitar, and more are tailored to each student's goals and skill level. Whether you're building confidence, refining technique, or preparing for an audition, individualized instruction helps you grow at your own pace.
Our punch card system lets you drop in anytime and explore different classes at your own pace. No long-term commitment-just dance, move, and create on your schedule.
ASA runs Monday-Friday from 2-5pm, aligned with the Durham Public Schools traditional calendar. On teacher workdays, full-day Teacher Workday Camps are offered separately for continued care and creativity.
