The CYT Heart (Helping to Encourage Awareness and Recognition in Theater) program has welcomed many new families to theater and dance classes this year. They have experienced the joy of being cast in their first CYT show! 

We are all blessed and excited as we watch students of all abilities learn and grow in their skills and confidence.

As we move into summer we look forward to summer camps, showcases and productions.

Visitors are welcome to any of our camp showcases to learn more about theater opportunities for students ages 5-18.

Contact  [email protected]  for more information about the Heart program and for showcase dates and locations.
Congratulations Project Dance!
"CYTKC Dance Studio took 10 dancers this last weekend to New York City to perform in Times Square with an event called Project Dance. Project Dance® is a movement of dancers seeking to positively impact culture through artistic integrity. We felt so blessed to be a part of the work God is doing in New York through the dance community. Thank you CYT families for your prayers and support that made this dream a reality for our girls!
Join us to celebrate a wonderful year of Dance!
