The Ontario School of Ballet (OSB) was founded in 1979 by Executive Director Sarah Lockett, to provide high quality dance instruction for students of all ages, in an inspirational environment. The school is committed to nurturing students from recreational to pre-professional levels of dance, by developing skills through excellent programming. Ms. Lockett's 33 years of experience has guided thousands of young dancers from the basics to professional careers. OSB is one of Canada's leading dance institutions. All classes are taught by expert accredited dance educators. Limited class size allows for individual attention and guidance. The school is committed to fostering the development of disciplined, self-confident students, who will grow from their training, whether their goal is to achieve a career in dance, or apply the knowledge they have gained to other professions.
Even professional ballet dancers, who dance almost exclusively in pointe shoes, dress in rehearsal clothes in order to pay close attention to the shapes, lines, and curves their bodies make in space.The dance school also offers recreational programs that allow students to learn and gain knowledge of other dance styles and technique. Yearly performances, concerts, and gallery give all the students of Russian Classical Ballet Academy a chance to show their yearly achievements, dedication, and hard work, along with bringing them the experience and joy of performing on stage.

At Dance Surge, learning is growing; children and adults of all ages will develop new physical abilities, discipline and dedication, and all in a safe, social setting. Choosing the right dance studio for you and your family can be difficult. For over 10 years the Dance Surge team has put continuous effort into making that choice easier. We are located in Thornhill and serve Markham, Richmond Hill, North York and Vaughan
The first positive experience we had with Dance Surge was the great communication. They didn’t hide behind a voicemail system, but usually had a live person answering the phone. Replies to both emails and voice messages we left were prompt as well. When we went in to take a look at the studio we saw that dance instructors were really teachers who weren’t just going through the motions. The instructors care about the children and want them to learn the right technique and learn/maintain a love for dancing. One of the attractions for us was that Dance Surge has both competitive and recreational classes. We were pleasantly surprised to see that both levels of classes are taught by same teachers so the quality of instruction is amazing. I have 3 kids dancing there (3,5 & 9yrs old). They love it to the extent that they can’t wait to get to class and run freely into the studio. I am amazed how much they learned in the first year as compared to previous years. In addition, and perhaps even more important is that fact that they are no longer complaining of boredom and have regained their interest in dancing.Read more
This T.V. show most likely used the owner and founder, Donita Nahon, as the platform for the show.

Donita is tireless in her efforts to create elegance; use what you have to offer; and further your ballet dancing. As a student from the age of 4, and now almost 40, Donita has shaped my life. Still dancing and I know I can.

I have always wanted to learn how to dance. With the gentle push of a Friend who recommended Arthur Murray Dance Studio of Woodbrigde, I decided to stop making excuses. I was told that if I wanted a place where I could feel confident and learn to lead in my life, then I came to the right place.
My career is one where I spend long hours sitting at the computer. Thus, socializing and public speaking were not my forte, but dancing instruction helped me gain the skills I needed to use the talents I have and apply myself in a more directive management environment. Through the patience of my teachers and the wonderful people I have met, I have had the opportunity to develop rhythm and learn non-verbal cues of communication to help me lead and dance with esteem. Pushing myself to go outside my comfort zone and socialize during group experience has had a phenomenal impact on my career and life! I smile more as I move around more rhythmically, I participate more confidently in social environments and I even stand taller. Physically, I feel more vibrant and emotionally I am more stable and confident in myself!!
Thank-you to the wonderful staff and people who participate every week in such a healthy and engaging environment. Opportunities are endless if you have the desire, give yourself the tools you need for life. As their motto says "Walk-in and Dance out!!" My friend was right, you won't ever look back only forward with a firm strong glide!!!
Check it out, nothing to lose, just plenty to gain!
Cheers
