The Acosta Advanced Training Hub (AATH) offers two pathways – +16 and +18 – each designed to prepare talented dancers for professional careers. While both pathways share the same course fee structure, there are important differences regarding scholarships and financial support. Please read carefully.
The AATH +16 stands as a unique and distinct extension of the Acosta Dance Foundation’s training initiatives. Unlike the Foundation’s other fully funded programmes, the AATH +16 is a payable course for dancers aged 16 and above who are seeking intensive professional-level training.
Course Fee: £14,000
Deposit: £1,000 (payable upon acceptance)
Payment Plans: Flexible instalment options are available to support accessibility for families.
Application & Audition Fee
£25 (non-refundable) – payable upon submission of the application form. This fee covers administration and audition costs and must be paid regardless of the audition outcome.
Scholarships
The AATH +16 does not offer full scholarships.
A limited number of partial scholarships (50%) are available, typically awarded to international students or those entering through competitions and partner organisations.
