Legend has it that the arts and culture of China were gifts bestowed by Heaven to humankind; hence, China is also known as Shen Zhou, or “Land of the Divine.” However, few traces of that gracious civilization can be found today. Restoring these cultural treasures and preserving the stories, legends, and values such as loyalty and benevolence that were once the cornerstone of ancient society has proven an invaluable way for students at Fei Tian Academy to reclaim this divinely-inspired heritage of humankind.

Moreover, the very process of perfecting their artistry is seen by many Fei Tian students as a part of their spiritual journey in itself, for it requires a deep understanding of life and humanity, the refinement of mind and body, and reverence for something higher than oneself. The belief that perfect art can bring the soul of both the artist and the audience that much closer to divinity seems to be universal.

The goal of the arts programs at Fei Tian Academy is to revive and promote genuine, compassionate, and beautiful traditional Chinese dance and classical music of East and West in their purest forms while guiding students to become accomplished, well-educated artists of solid moral character.

It is this deep appreciation for the sacred dimension of art that brings a rare purity and inner beauty to the works of Fei Tian Academy students and faculty.
