OUR MISSION
Christ. Community. Creativity.
Christian Arts Academy trains the body, soul, and spirit through the discipline of the arts to affect our community for Christ.
We teach modesty and excellence through worship and technique.
Christ-Centered
Classes
Every class is wrapped in scripture and prayer. A motivating Bible passage outlines the theme for each program and serves as inspiration for lesson plans. Students explore faith through creative movement and foundational technique.
Family-Friendly
Performances
No revealing costumes or inappropriate music... ever. With family-friendly, classical, and Christ-centered choices, every class and performance is a space you can feel completely good about bringing your whole family to.
A Different Kind of
Studio
Competition and judgment have no place here. Our classroom is built on encouragement, and growth. A place where prayer and scripture form the foundation and every student is valued for who God made them to be.

My daughter has been with Christian Arts Academy for 5 years and is now 15. She has grown in confidence, resilience, determination, responsibility and just simply has flourished!!! She loves it! Andrea Wood puts Christ first and pours her heart out to her students! Andrea is passionate, has expertise with dance teaching and goes above and beyond with her studio in very professional, loving and faithful way. As a parent I love the prayer, scripture and worship during classes, the modest costumes, and christian music!! An outstanding/organized recital performance just occured in June that I thoroughly enjoyed! God Bless!

My girls love dancing here! Andrea and all of the teachers do such a great job.
Being a part of this dance studio has provided my girls a place where they can learn new skills, be creative, dance, play, make friends, learn the value of hard work and being a team player, among other things. But most importantly, the biblical principles we teach at home are reinforced and they are encouraged to use their gifts and talents to glorify God and spread joy!
I appreciate that they are homeschool friendly and offer daytime classes. The summer programs/camps have been especially fun for my girls! I also love that I don’t have to worry about the music, costumes, or dance moves being inappropriate in any way. We love this place!

My daughter beams when I tell her it's dance day. I am thrilled to take her to Christian Arts Academy. Her little heart is truly overflowing when we leave. It's a very sweet and wholesome experience for my daughter where I know the name of Jesus is lifted up. We love Andrea!
