Pegasus Academy of performing arts

About

Pegasus AcademyThe Pegasus Academy of Performing Arts was formed in 2008 to provide a Bristol youth organisation offering young people of all ages the opportunity to take part in many activities including “Colourguard”. This is a dance based  activity using flags and other equipment, to perform a routine to music in Basketball Arena’s.

Our aim is to allow our young people an opportunity to engage in a great activity which can lead to being part of a successful team and to compete in Open, Junior and Cadets classes at Regional, National and International competitions from January until April called “Winterguard”. More information can be found at www.wguk.org.uk

Pegasus has formed a unique partnership with Filton College, Bristol where they have started a Colourguard class as part of a BTEC National Diploma in Musical Theatre. Whilst this is common place in the USA, it is thought that this is the first time this has happened in a UK college. This provides Pegasus the opportunity to use the excellent facilities at  Filton College’s WISE Campus. The highlight of our season was when Pegasus held a Winterguard competition in the newly refurbished top class 1,000 seat WISE Arena venue on 16 January 2011.
