Raquelle Gracie

Co-Founder & Head of Music

Professional singer, actress, songwriter, yoga teacher and graduate from Italia Conti with extensive experience in many facets of the performing arts industry.

As a singer, songwriter, actress and mother, it is a gift to be able to use my passions to nurture young talent and encourage them to become more confident and equipped with skills that will be invaluable as they enter into adulthood. Being a founder of Par-tee Theatre Club and experiencing the unwavering commitment and growth from children and adults alike has inspired me to build Rise into a supportive and creative hub that the Algarve is calling for.

For those interested in careers in the arts, having navigated the film & music industry for nearly 2 decades, I am thrilled to be able to provide informed support and guidance for young professionals so they have more knowledge of the pitfalls and nature of the industry. Being a qualified yoga teacher, I will also incorporate mindfulness and meditation within classes to help children with anxiety or nerves and encourage confidence and empowerment.

I can also provide LAMDA qualifications and examinations which count towards UCAS points for university.
