Abbys Student of the Month is Poppy.
Her confidence has grown so much recently, and it has been wonderful to watch. She recently completed her very first Medal Test and worked incredibly hard to prepare for it.
Every week she pushes herself a little further outside of her comfort zone and embraces new challenges. She has also been putting a huge amount of effort into preparing for her upcoming exam.
Well done, Poppy — you’re absolutely smashing it! We are all so proud of you. 💜

🎭✨ DIPLOMA SEASON IS HERE! ✨🎭

We are incredibly proud to have five students working towards their Diploma qualifications this year at RJ Academy.

A diploma is one of the highest levels of performance examination and requires dedication, maturity, commitment, and a genuine passion for the performing arts. These qualifications go far beyond simply learning lines or songs – students are expected to demonstrate advanced performance skills, technical understanding, interpretation, research, and professionalism.

The journey to a diploma challenges performers to think deeply about their work, develop their artistic identity, and perform at a level that prepares them for further training and the industry itself.

Our diploma students have spent months researching, rehearsing, refining, and pushing themselves outside their comfort zones. The amount of work that goes on behind the scenes is immense, and we couldn’t be prouder of the commitment they have shown.

Whether they are pursuing the arts professionally or simply striving to achieve their personal best, the skills gained through diploma study – confidence, communication, discipline, creativity, and resilience – will stay with them for life.

A huge good luck to all five of our diploma candidates. We can’t wait to see your hard work come to life and celebrate everything you have achieved along the way. 🌟

💜🖤✨

At RJ Academy, we believe singing is so much more than hitting the right notes.

From a young age, our students are taught that every song tells a story. Through acting through song, they learn to understand the character, connect with the lyrics, and communicate genuine emotion to an audience.

Lyla has been working hard on bringing her song to life, thinking about who she is, who she is singing to, what she wants, and why the words matter. The result is a performance that feels authentic, engaging, and believable.

Technical singing skills are important, but it’s the storytelling that truly captures an audience’s attention. That’s why acting through song is woven into our training from the very beginning, helping our students grow into confident, expressive performers.

So proud of Lyla and the progress she’s making. 🌟🎭🎶

Today after 11 years of 1-2-1 lessons we said good bye to lovely Tilly! Tilly is leaving now to focus on her GCSEs after being a hardworking student for over a decade! Throughout Tilly’s time with us she has achieved amazing exam results in grade 1-7 and has appeared in many of our showcases. We were thrilled that she took part in our London show 2025 as well! Tilly has always worked hard through all her lessons including her Covid lockdown zoom lessons and she has really improved over the years she has become a really strong technical singer with a great belt on her and we will miss her so much . It only feels right to mention that through Tilly joining me the door was opened to many many of our fantastic students we have today . Tilly is part of the Chater family and her mum sent so many students my way over the years putting students needs first opening up doors to them being triple threat performers and encouraging 1-2-1 singing lessons - because of this I feel many other dance schools could seethe benefit and were comfortable to do the same . All of the Chater students that have come our way over the years have been hardworking , loyal and professional students showing th quality and ethos of their dance training following through . I will be forever greatful . Although this is goodbye for now for Tilly our door is always open and we wish you all the best. Always part of the RJ family 💙💜

Huge good luck to everyone taking medal tests today ! Enjoy yourself 🎉
