"Look no further for a college prep program! TCAA has all of the best training/coaching and advising you need to be as successful as possible as a performer. Mark Madama, Luke Steinhauer, Michael Lang, Allison Bell and Lisa Mayer all under one platform is an opportunity of a lifetime."
-Travis Anderson
Former Student, and Professional Performer
"I've studied with Lisa Mayer for over 5 years and thanks to her skill and care, I've transformed and blossomed not only as a dancer, but as a performer. Lisa's extensive experience on Broadway and in the ballet world makes her the perfect educator-she is stylistically versatile while equally valuing both technique and self-expression. In the studio, Lisa creates a comfortable, warm environment where attention to detail and hard work are championed. A space lead by Lisa is a space where you can do your best work as a performer.
I only wish I had TCAA around when I was doing my prescreens and college auditions, because I didn't know what colleges were looking for. I hope you take advantage of being able to study with an educator as encouraging, committed and experienced as Lisa Mayer and the team at TCAA."-Travis Anderson

CURRENT AND FORMER STUDENT TESTIMONIALS-WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING;
"I have worked with the experts at TCAA while I was in college, it's an incredible group! As someone who didn't have much formal dance training, Lisa created an environment that made me feel safe to learn new technical skills without the fear and intimidation that comes with most dance classes. Her patience and individual attention to each student allows for everyone to grow and improve at their own pace, leaving her class and coaching sessions with confidence and ownership of their artistry."

"I grew so much as a performer and dancer in my classes with Lisa. She provides an environment that's serious about the biz, yet warm and welcoming to all levels. She pays close attention to detail and cares a great deal about your development as an artist. I always left class feeling motivated and inspired."
-Joe Serafini-Currently Seb in Disney+Series High School Musical.
University of Michigan Class of 2020
"I'm a senior in high school and am a performer (singer/actor) who is so excited about TCAA! I just started dance classes with Lisa Mayer about 5 months ago. As an aspiring performer I want to improve my dance training in preparation for college musical theatre pre-screens and auditions. Lisa has provided me with a safe and productive space to enrich my abilities. Coming into ballet at this age can be super scary, but Lisa has personally helped ease the fear of this process. I couldn't ask for a better way to start my dance training and now have TCAA and all that they offer, to help prepare me for my college pre-screens and auditions. The team has incredible credentials."
