Student Testimonials
"Our daughter loves it here! The voice over class is awesome and Tyra is a great teacher."
"My Grandson has been attending for over a year. He loves it. The owner, Tyra, is fantastic. She provides a learning environment that is educational but a lot of fun. I can’t say enough about this place. I highly recommend it for children of all ages."
"I have been working with Tyra for a bit now, and I can say she is top notch. I have been to other voice teachers and grew up singing in school choir and musical theater. I have recorded myself singing over the years and always thought I sounded horrible. The problem is I love singing. With Tyra’s guidance, I heard a recording of myself that I actually liked. Her methods teach the basics, to have fun, and most importantly confidence. I would recommend Cleveland Academy of Performing Arts to any adult looking to get in, or back into singing or musical theater. Without a doubt, 5 STARS."
"My children just started at the academy and so far they love it. They just had their first performance and it was amazing. Mrs. Tyra works very hard with the kids and you can tell she loves what she is doing."
"Great use of venue, wonderful performances from a group of kids learning about being brave by performing. You could see the excitement in their faces. This is a passion project for the director & family, giving local kids a chance to shine, learn and succeed. I support this veteran run project and encourage others to see what it's all about. I look forward to more shows from this talented director."
"My son loves attending Cleveland Academy for the Performing Arts. He has taken so many of the classes offered including acting, voice over, and puppetry. He has used the skills he's learned in school to help him speak in front of his class with confidence. He is much more confident and has improved critical thinking skills. He is also much more able to convey his thoughts and feelings through his body language and pick up on others emotions and feelings through their non-verbal cues. Tyra is amazingly talented and a blessing to the kids that get to work with her. She is able to meet the kids where they are so they all end the class with confidence and new skills. Now that Sudie is working with CAPA it is even more incredible if that's even possible. I can't recommend Cleveland Academy of Performing Art's enough. It offers exceptional opportunities for kids through the classes offered."
"Cleveland Academy of Performing Arts has been nothing short of awesome for my daughter! She started the classes not really sure if she would enjoy acting or singing. After the first class, she was hooked! She receives so much encouragement from Tyra...she loves it!"
