They co-founded '''Performing Arts San Antonio''' (PASA) in 2009 and opened its doors with a tribute show on New Year's Eve 2010. PASA initially focused on educational programs, starting with summer camps using rented spaces.

The goal of PASA's training was to help students become competitive in major markets like New York and Los Angeles. PASA trained individuals from age 10 to adult, offering intensive classes designed to challenge actors to deeply fulfill a character based on relationship and experience, rather than just playing the story. They brought their extensive experience from their acting careers to their teaching and directing.

While well-known for its training, PASA also staged productions using open casting, which was initially a struggle for acceptance as a producing entity in San Antonio. PASA was located centrally to pull from a large geographic area, choosing the under-served north side over downtown San Antonio<ref name="artscene-interview"/>. The theater space was set up bistro-style with tables, allowing for intimacy and immersive moments where the fourth wall could be broken. Notable productions included the U.S. premiere of ''Wicket: A Star Wars Parody Musical'' in March 2019<ref name="artscene-wicket">{{cite web|title=Interview: PASA’s Paul Tinder on ‘Wicket: A Star Wars Parody Musical’|date=5 March 2019|url=https://www.artscenesa.com/interview-pasas-paul-tinder-on-wicket-a-star-wars-parody-musical/}}</ref>.
