Performing Arts Academy

The Performing Arts Academy is located in Sion, inside Building No 288 at Flat No 11. Since we are in a regular residential building, the atmosphere is very different from a big commercial school. It feels more like a local gathering place. We use the flat for our practice sessions and lessons. It’s not a huge space, but we have managed to fit in what we need. We have some basic flooring down and a few mirrors on the walls for the students. Sometimes the neighbors might hear a bit of music, so we try to keep the volume at a reasonable level. The building is quite old and has a lot of character. Getting to Sion is easy for most people since it is so central. We don't have a big sign outside, just the number on the door. It’s a simple setup where the focus is just on the arts. We spend most of our afternoons here when the classes are in full swing. In the mornings, it’s usually just one or two of us cleaning up or planning the next week’s lessons. There is a small balcony where we sometimes take a break and watch the street below. We’ve been in this building for many years and have seen many people come through these doors. It’s a modest place, but it serves our purposes perfectly fine. We like that it doesn't feel like a sterile institution, but more like a second home for those who come here to learn.
