(covid permitting) Boundary Arts Centre was established in April 2012 by Director, professional dancer and teacher Siobhan Pownall. We began in a small local studio in Audenshaw with only a couple of students in the class. The school expanded so much after a short few months that we moved into a slightly bigger premises and also opened up another venue in Ashton. In 2014 we had three different sites in Tameside until we decided to combine them all to one venue in Ashton Under Lyne which then created Boundary Dance Company. However, as we continue to expand our school and keep offering such a variety of classes we changed the name to Boundary Arts Centre. All students that are 5+ and take part in our prestigious government accredited RAD Ballet IDTA Tap exams and Acrobatic Arts exams. And students aged 3+ can participate in IDTA musical theatre exams. All students have the opportunity to take part in our annual showcase that will not only develop skills which assist in their personal development but also skills which could lead them onto a professional career, if they wish. We also take part in mini performances and competitions through out the year which we have been extremely successful in. We believe that hard work, discipline and determination are essential and we encourage all students to believe in themselves.

Erin Whyte (founder and teacher) – I started my love of music at a young age and began classical training from the age of 14. After leaving school I went on to study popular singing at Jewel and Esk College on their HND Music course. During these 2 years I sang in bands and in choirs and my passion for performing was born. From here I went on to focus on my classical voice at Edinburgh Napier University where I studied on their BMus (hons) course for 4 years. I gained a lot of experience singing solo and in small groups which really helped build my self-confidence. I have worked with children for over 16 years, starting out shadowing a music teacher in primary schools. This is where I found my love for teaching music to young children. Knowing I wanted to work with children I left retail and started working at Newtongrange After School Club. From here I began working as a Learning Assistant at Stockbridge Primary School and worked at their After School Club. Following the birth of my son in 2014 I gave up work to be a full time Mum. With lots more free time I could take him to classes for little ones where I met some of my best friends, and Charlie did too. I found out how invaluable these classes were for both child and carer and realised that this was the environment I wanted to work in. In 2015 I became a teacher for Monkey Music. Here I learnt how to really work with babies and toddlers and grow relationships with them and their carers. My dream for a long time has been to combine my passions for singing, music and working with young children. With the arrival of our daughter Katie at the start of 2017 I am finally back to work and realising that dream. I think it’s highly important to have affordable and educational classes for babies, toddlers and pre-schoolers in and around local areas, not only for the little ones to make friends, but for the adults to meet people from the community too. Music is a great tool to bring people together and also encourages self-confidence which is an important factor in a young person’s life.n
