About Us

Led by industry professionals, we guarantee to provide training of the highest standard in Jazz, Contemporary, Commercial, Hip Hop and Musical Theatre.

Our main focus is to prepare students for full-time vocational training and give longevity to their careers.

ELITE PERFORMERS ACADEMY was established in 2019. The founders Ebony and Aimee both trained and graduated together in 2015 before going on to work and excel in different sectors of the performing arts industry.

Later on in their careers they decided to combine their skills; sharing their knowledge and expertise with young, aspiring and talented performers.

Ebony Clarke & Aimee Worth have an extensive knowledge of the industry having worked in a variety of jobs in musical theatre, dance, modelling and commercial. They have a wealth of experience from teaching at many of the large performing arts colleges and they are excited to start their new venture with the opening of CLIQUE College in September 2022. They set up EPA in 2019 with a mission to create well rounded, confident and engaged young performers, passing on their experience that they have accumulated over their careers.
