Goh Ballet Toronto — Kid-friendly Storytime & Classes in Toronto, Ontario

What parents say

• Sophie B

  I don’t usually write reviews, but this experience has stayed with me and I feel it’s worth sharing. Some time ago, I went to visit Goh Ballet Toronto. I was seriously considering enrolling my daughter and wanted to see the space in person. When I arrived, the studio was closed, but I took a moment to look in through the windows. The space looked modern, bright, and very well cared for. It immediately caught my eye. There was a calm, welcoming feeling to it, and I could easily picture my daughter feeling inspired and excited to dance there. Since I couldn’t speak with anyone in person when I visited, I tried calling but didn’t receive an answer. I then filled out the online information request form, hoping to hear back soon. When I asked for information, there was no holiday or other reason given for the delay, so there was no excuse for not responding in a timely manner. Unfortunately, it still took more than three days for anyone to get back to me. By that point, I had already started exploring other dance schools. As a parent, finding the right environment for your child is so important. Details such as timely communication may seem small, but they make a big difference. If it takes that long just to get a response to a basic inquiry, it raises concerns about what communication might be like once you’re enrolled. It was especially disappointing because the school looked so lovely from the outside and is conveniently located near where we live. In the end, the lack of responsiveness left a negative impression on me and made me decide not to pursue it any further. I’m glad they were able to show me their true level of service now rather than later.

  The teachers are incredibly committed to helping their students develop core strength, spatial awareness, and technique. The staff are supportive, kind, patient. My daughter, already a talented dancer, vaulted forward in her confidence and technique after a two week intensive at Goh. Highly recommend.

  As an adult beginner, have thoroughly enjoyed my class experiences here. Instruction on safe technique, and mind body connection is supported through the expression of dance. The teachers are able to manage regular students as well as those dropping in or visiting. A respectful and peaceful environment where each person's individual movement practise is honored and encouraged. If you've wanted to try ballet, this is your sign.

  My 4 year old daughter absolutely loved the summer ballet program! She looked forward to every class and left each lesson beaming with excitement. Miss Heather is a truly exceptional teacher—kind, fun, energetic, and enthusiastic. She has a wonderful way of engaging young children and introducing them to the beauty of ballet while making it joyful and approachable. My daughter has grown so much in her confidence and love of dance thanks to her. I also want to acknowledge AJ, who was incredibly helpful and professional when I needed some assistance with a registration matter. Over the phone, she took the time to get everything sorted out, and I really appreciated her support. Overall, this program has been such a positive and memorable experience for our family. We are so grateful for the care and dedication of the staff, and especially for Miss Heather’s inspiring teaching!

  I’ve had a wonderful experience with the adult ballet program at Goh Ballet. The teachers are incredibly professional, patient, and encouraging, creating a welcoming environment for adult students of all levels. Whether you are returning to ballet after many years or trying it for the first time, the classes are structured in a way that helps you learn and improve while still enjoying the beauty of ballet. The studio has a very positive and supportive atmosphere, and you can really feel the passion for ballet and the arts. The instructors pay attention to technique and musicality, and they are always motivating students to do their best while making the class enjoyable. I also truly appreciate the professionalism of the staff. When I recently had an issue with my class pass booking, the team responded quickly, investigated the problem carefully, and resolved it promptly. Their responsiveness and care for their students made a big impression on me. I highly recommend Goh Ballet’s adult ballet program to anyone who loves ballet or wants to experience it in a supportive and inspiring community.
