Twirl was created to fit the needs of our youngest dancers by creating a fun, positive space for young children to grow and learn. Classes are offered in tumbling/gymnastics, tap, ballet and hip hop. 
We believe that the most important part of early childhood dance education is to instill a love for the performing arts, and to make dance class full of music, imagination and fun!

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

“CAPA helped me to grow in many ways: Technically, my classes gave me advanced skill and strength. Artistically, my teachers, especially my mentor, Miss Ashley Feinsinger, gave me creativity and passion. Emotionally, my teachers, studio directors, and fellow dancers provided a warm environment that nurtured my deep love of dance from a very young age. I’m so happy that I grew up in, and will always be part of, the CAPA family.”

- Michele Carter
Alumni, Juilliard School

“My years as a CAPA student gave me a strong foundation to excel as a dancer. The training I received provided me with strong technique as well as the versatility that is needed to succeed in today’s dance world. Most importantly, the relationships I made with friends, teachers, and directors will be lifelong. I am honored now to teach and choreograph alongside my childhood mentors.”

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

“I brought my then 2-year-old daughter Emily to her first ballet class at CAPA for the first time over ten years ago. Little did I know that it was the first of thousands of trips to CAPA, that it would become a second home and family to her, and that it would literally change the course of her life. Now, as she spends her summers dancing and studying across the country with some of the world’s most renowned ballet teachers and schools, including the Kirov Academy and the School of American Ballet, we are always so happy to come home to CAPA, which has given her the confidence, skill, and passion to pursue her dream.”

- Kathy Ireland
Mother of Emily Ireland

CAPA is a wonderful place to learn how to dance because I feel like I am free to be myself and express my feelings through dance. Everyone is so nice, I feel “at home,” as if we are one big CAPA Family!

- Kendyl Y. 
CAPA Student, age 12

WHAT THEY'RE SAYING

"I took my first steps when I was 3 years old at CAPA and continued as a competitive dancer until I was in high school. The numerous competitions we did helped me learn how to manage stressful situations while the daily training taught me discipline. Through my time at CAPA, I not only became a better performer, but was introduced to my two mentors: Maggie Danielsen (tap instructor) and Vanessa Townsell (vocal coach). Both Maggie and Vanessa introduced me to musical theater and helped me become a more well-rounded, stronger performer. Without their support and encouragement, I never would have known to pursue a career in musical theater and would have never found my passion. The dance training I received at CAPA was essential in many roles I had in community and regional theater, but was especially key when I joined the Angelica 1st National Tour of Hamilton, initially as a dance swing. I currently am the Standby on tour where I cover the leading ladies: the Schuyler sisters. Although I do not dance as much these days, I am forever grateful for my dance background because it helped open doors and allowed me to take my first steps into my career. Without my years of dance training at CAPA and my introduction to my mentors, I would not be where I am today.
