ASSOCIATION OF REGIONAL FESTIVALS

For nearly 30 years, BASA has been helping young people to develop those skills. We help our students find their own unique voice and improve their communication skills so that success is ensured in every situation. Our program prepares students for success in all types of performances, from interviews and school projects to speeches, debates, networking and life.

We live in a time with a deficit of leadership skills, and so the value placed on leadership has increased. At one time, great test scores guaranteed uni-versity admission and career opportunities, but now the best universities and employers are looking for more. It is not enough to be smart. It is not enough to be hard-working. It is not enough to get high marks. To achieve the highest levels of success, one must be a leader – a confident commu-nicator who is able to work collaboratively with others when called upon and provide the focus necessary to complete the assignment. These are skills we teach on a daily basis.

Because every student is different, the best way to discover whether our program is right for you is to get in touch with us so that we can discuss your unique needs. We encourage you to contact our studios in order to arrange an appointment to personally discuss your goals, any further ques-tions that you may have about our program and how we can help instill the tools of confident communication in your child.
