About CTA Performing Arts

A warm welcome from CTA Performing Arts. Established in 2008, we are a family business, run by myself and my husband Phil.

Our goal is to give the children who attend CTA Performing Arts the most amazing and magical dance and performing arts experience, which can be started at just 15 months and continue on up to 18 years.

Every student who walks through our doors is important to us – so whether your child wants to make dance and the performing arts their career or because you are looking for a class to give your child confidence and creative skills, our classes are suitable for you.

CTA Performing Arts gives our students a ‘3rd Place’ – a place outside of home and school, a place where they feel safe and have a sense of ‘belonging,’

With the inspiration, support and guidance of our talented and experienced teaching faculty, our students are nurtured and developed to reach their full potential as performers and directed on a path of creativity, self-confidence, expression and individualism.

We love making the CTA Performing Arts experience fun & enjoyable for our students as well as simple and stress-free for parents and we can’t wait for your child to join the CTA Performing Arts family.

Welcome to our community of friendship, connection and belonging.
