A Nice professional establishment,
Offering dance classes for kids to early teens, very professional, very competitive and participants have great potentials to proceed and advance onto competition stages.
Prices are a higher compared to other camps, but the price is justified for the professional return you get back!

I have been part of this dance studio for several years and my daughters have always loved their dance teachers and team. My kids cannot wait to get back into the studio this coming year! We have so much appreciation for the entire staff and all the hard work they put into making our kids happy while teaching them valuable skills not only in dance but skills they can take with them into the future. Thank you for offering Zoom classes online when COVID affecting everyones life! It really brought joy to my kids to interact with her team while safely dancing at home. We cannot wait for the new

I have been a member of the Evolution Dance Studio family ever since the opening of its doors. I grew from a dancer, to an assistant, and now a teacher at this studio and it has been a positive and influential experience. Since day one, the owner and staff of EDS have been nothing but professional, supportive, dedicated, and nurturing to every member of their team. I am very proud to now be a teacher for this amazing establishment. More importantly, Evolution Dance Studio acts as a second family to both myself and the rest of their students.

Such a great studio! I have two daughters enrolled in dance classes here, one in the recreational program and the other in competitive. Not only are the faculty members fostering a fun environment for the students and providing excellent technical training, they are also following all necessary COVID 19 protocols to ensure that the dancers stay safe and healthy. Although it was unfortunate that the 2020 dance year was cut short, Evolution did not hesitate to provide quality zoom dance classes so the kids could continue training from home. As someone who is apprehensive to go out during these times

My two children have been attending Evolution Dance studio for 12 years. They have trained as competitive dancers at EDS since the age of 5. The staff at Evolution Dance studio has trained my children and many other students to be very successful and accomplished dancers. Over the years, numerous dancers at EDS have been members of the Toronto Raptors Lil Ballas Dance Team. An opportunity made possible because of the high level of training that the children receive at Evolution Dance Studio.
Dancers at Evolution Dance studio are trained to be very well-rounded, versatile dancers. Over the years

My daughter Julia has been dancing at the EDS for over 6 years. This is her 3rd year in the competitive program and she absolutely loves it. The owner Cathy and the teachers are wonderful and very accommodating. I highly recommend this dance studio.
