Currumbin Academy of Performing Arts is a renowned dance school located in Currumbin Waters, Gold Coast. In addition to its main studio in Currumbin Waters, the academy also operates a second campus at Hillcrest Christian College in Reedy Creek. Currumbin Academy of Performing Arts, or CAPA, is committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for students to express their passion for dance.
The academy takes pride in its team of qualified teachers who not only aim to motivate students to reach their full potential in their dance abilities but also inspire them to develop a true love for dance and performing arts. At CAPA, dancing is all about love and passion.
CAPA strongly believes that every student belongs, regardless of their age, ability, skill level, or experience. They emphasise personal development by encouraging students to focus on their own improvement rather than comparing themselves to others. Each student is recognised as an individual with their own set of strengths, weaknesses, and unique ways of learning and developing.
The team at CAPA is led by Kelly Lekas, the owner and director of the academy. Kelly's love for dance and performing arts began at a young age, and she opened Currumbin Academy of Performing Arts in 2013 to combine her passion for the arts with her love for working with children. Kelly is a member of the Commonwealth Society of Teachers of Dance (CSTD) and specialises in Jazz and coaching students in the early years of dance.
Kimberly Wood, the elite programme coordinator at CAPA, is a highly experienced dancer who has been competing in dance competitions and festivals since the age of six. She brings her expertise in hip hop, jazz, contemporary, and coaching the academy's tiny tots.
Whether students are interested in recreational dance classes or wish to participate in extension programmes, CAPA offers a range of programmes suitable for all ages and skill levels. The academy also organises school holiday workshops to provide additional opportunities for students to enhance their dance skills. CAPA's timetables and enrolment can be accessed easily online, and the academy is currently accepting enrolments for the 2023 term.
