Collierville Arts Academy

My daughters have loved taking dance, music and art lessons at Collierville Arts Academy! Mrs. Julie and Mrs. Abby have done a beautiful job of instructing my daughters in ballet, jazz and tap. My daughters have also gotten the amazing experiences of dancing in The Nutcracker and Showcase at Harrel Theater. Mr. Brian has made piano such a fun and enjoyable experience. My daughter practices every day without prompting because she sincerely loves to play! Mr. Tony and Mrs. Catherine have also been patient and effective art teachers. I’m so glad we have a place like Collierville Arts Academy in our town- where kids have fun while developing lifelong skills!

Absolutely love the CAA team. My son is enrolled in Tigers karate and has benefited so much from the personalized attention and care from Sensei Tom. I have seen an increase in confidence, patience and perseverance since joining the class. I really believe they are working to teach lasting life skills to the students and this is so much more than an extracurricular activity. I would 100% recommend to anyone.

Great studio for beginner dancers! Everyone is very patient and professional with the children. Beginning Karate classes are also good to teach focus and following directions to young students.

My daughter loves dance at Collierville Arts Academy. She has made great friends that are encouraging and sweet. She loves the classical ballet training that she is receiving here. Mrs. Julie is always aware of what is developmentally appropriate for each dancers age, strength, and experience.

My daughters loved their first season of ballet, tap, and jazz dance at CAA. Mrs. Julie sets the expectations high but at the same time is patient and kind. Mrs. Abby is wonderful also. Ballet students get the opportunity to perform every December in the Collierville Ballet’s production of the Nutcracker, alongside professional dancers. What I love about this studio is that the focus is on ballet and they follow the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus. Many dance studios focus on gymnastic type moves and competitions, with some inappropriate costumes and song choices for young girls. You won’t find that at CAA. Costumes are beautiful and appropriate, but not stuffy, and the music sometimes fun and sometimes classical, but never suggestive in any way. We love CAA!

My son has been going to fencing for a few years. He really likes it! Great place to go. Highly recommend!

We tried art classes for our 5-year-old over the summer, and now we're starting dance classes with Mrs. Julie. My daughter loves it, and the instructors are very good. I love that they have a variety of different creative arts to explore.

I cannot thank Collierville Arts Academy enough for helping shape the performing and fine artist I've become. They are without a doubt the most professional, inspiring, and personable academy of the arts in the region and their longtime, steadfast presence in the mid-south is testament to that. If you want classical training, a breadth of choices, and a place where your student is appreciated and supported throughout their journey as artists, dancers, musicians, models, and so forth--look no further than Collierville Arts Academy. Thank you CAA for always inspiring!
