Ambition Performing Arts is more than a studio, it is a family-centred organization not just for the students, but also for the staff. They go above and beyond for their families, caring for each student and recognizing the power of the arts to invigorate their lives, and give the teachers and staff the tools to make connections with each student. Each student matters more than just being a dancer, actor, or musician; we take the time to understand who each child is, what they’re passionate about, and how we can empower them through the arts. My time spent at APA has allowed me to grow exponentially in my teaching and self-development, as they want each person who walks through their doors to grow where they are planted, recognizing how we can become 1% better every class. Through innovative studio practices, Ambition Performing Arts raises the barre in what we can expect from our arts educating studios.

APA has been a place for me to grow and flourish into someone I am proud of. Not only is it my second home, but a place where lifelong friendships and memories are made. I’m blessed to have been given the opportunity to be a part of a great team of amazing staff who are more like a family. Working together to lift eachother up and encouraging each other to put our best foot forward. I have grown both professionally and personally from my experiences at APA and appreciate the opportunities I have been given to be the best at what I do.

APA is one of the most welcoming and supportive environments I have danced and worked in. Tara and the rest of the team go above and beyond to make the studio a safe space for everyone. One of my favourite aspects about working here is that everyone is encouraged and given opportunities to grow. This applies to the students by providing them with opportunities to develop their abilities and expose them to new experiences. Staff are also given opportunities to grow through professional development experiences and being supported by a team that is always willing to lend a hand.

Since starting at APA, I have never felt so included and cared for by a leadership team. I am inspired to be the best instructor, educator, and motivator for students but I am also pushed to be the best version of myself. The APA team is always pushing for growth and success which has allowed me to discover my strengths and develop my skills. I am so proud to be a member of the APA family because the standards are so high and the dedication to the students is so extraordinary!

The opportunity to have a job that does not feel like work is a treasure in itself. However, to find a workplace that encourages continual growth (as well as provides opportunities for growth) both personally and professionally supersedes any job I’ve had bar none.

My goal is to create safe spaces that allow my students to be exactly who they need to be, and celebrate their unique gifts. I love that my APA family helps me work toward this goal and pushes me to always implement it ?

I believe that no child should ever be unable to accomplish their dreams due to what they cannot control and APA works with me to make sure this is not an obstacle for any student. The inclusivity and family first dynamic that I see here every day makes me want to work harder and harder for those around me and my students.

I am incredibly grateful to all that APA has taught me, and I look forward to continuing to grow with this amazing team!
