CYT Atlanta offers classes for children ages 7-18 over the course of two sessions during the school year: Fall and Spring. Weekly classes last for two hours and run for twelve weeks. A variety of classes are offered in drama, voice, dance, and specialty classes that vary per session. We hold classes on three different days during the week so you can pick a class that works with your schedule. Most of the classes are small to insure personal attention and growth. 

At the end of a CYT session, students will come away with improved skills in the area of emphasis. During the last week of class, a high-energy showcase is presented by each class to demonstrate to other students, family, and friends what they have learned.

CORE 1—Core 1 classes are foundational classes that either focus on one foundational skill (like character development) or give an overview of many foundational skills. Core 1 classes are meant to be taken over and over again because theatrical foundations are endless and continuing to strengthen these skills is paramount to creating a well-rounded performer. Curriculum is adjusted to be appropriate to the age, meaning more advanced foundational skills will be taught to older students.

CORE 2—Core 2 classes build upon the foundational skills learned in Core 1 classes. In math, students must understand arithmetic before tackling algebra, likewise, theatrical concepts build upon one another. Core 2 classes are for driven students who have foundational skills that they wish to take to the next level.

APEX—CYT’s Audition Only Company, Apex is for students who wish to utilize their skills in competitive/performance-driven setting. Apex classes will vary per session depending on the project. Students are required to have completed at least one Core 1 class in order to audition.

ENRICHMENT—Enrichment classes are classes that focus on a stand alone theatrical technique. Classes like Costume Design, Improv, and Stage Combat would be considered enrichment classes. Students are encouraged to take enrichment classes to broaden their understanding of the theatrical arts.
