Have you ever wondered what a Triple Threat Performer is? A Triple Threat Performer is someone who can Sing, Dance and Act. Performers work very hard to develop these skills and it can take years of intensive study and training.
Hollywood Kids Academy specializes in helping kids become “Triple Threats.” Students study and work very hard in our various Broadway Dance, Musical Theater And Broadway Voice classes and perform all the time in our Theater to develop these skills.

Although Hollywood Kids Academy now has hundreds of students we would like to give special recognition each month to two of our amazing performers.
These are kids who are excelling not only in the development of their talents, but also in their examples and leadership skills. We are so pleased to spotlight them and their achievements.

 Both of these boys are great gentlemen and treat all the girls with great respect. They have made it their personal goals to teach all the boys at HKA to be gentlemen and treat the girls as ladies. The boys are learning and the girls love it!
