Philosophy
At East York Performing Arts Centre, we firmly believe in the absolute necessity of a strong ballet background, no matter what form of dance a person wishes to pursue. Our goal is to develop the potential of each individual, while enhancing their love of dance and performance. We discourage competition between students, but encourage each individual to challenge their personal abilities and growth.
Small class sizes
We understand the importance of small class sizes and low teacher-student ratios. At our school, no class shall exceed twelve students. This ensures that every student receives the personalized attention they require and deserve.
Happy, healthy introduction for children
We take special care with our youngest dancers, insuring they get the happiest, healthiest introduction to the art. Our classes are structured for their success. We believe that a child's first years in the dance class are the most important in forming a healthy self image and strong appreciation for music and dance.
