Best Ballet school in Canada

N	Nathaniel Craig on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Goh Ballet Academy is wonderful. I started my ballet training two months before my 16th birthday, with no previous dance training to speak of. After a year and a half of detailed instruction and hard work I'm currently in the first year of their senior program. I think that should speak for the superlative level of training the Goh Ballet Academy provides to it's students.

K	Kit Morris on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My 10 year old daughter, Mikayla, has been dancing at Goh Ballet since she was three years old. It all started with the themed summer dance workshops - Cinderella, Swan Lake and Frozen. There were twinkles in her eyes every time she danced. I knew then Goh Ballet was the right place that would nurture her passion, creativity and the desire to excel. The teachers at Goh Ballet were all top-notched. They are all very talented, patient, caring, creative, supportive and disciplined. Mikayla learned so much at Goh Ballet. We are grateful that she was given many opportunities to perform on various year-end shows, the Goh Ballet Nutcrackers and different competitions. Mikayla has danced in the Nutcracker for the last five years and she absolutely loved the experiences. They usually spent close to 3 months to practice and rehearse for the shows. It really is the best Nutcracker production in town! This year, because of COVID, they changed the format into a film production. They managed to complete the project within all the restrictions due to the COVID protocols. Kudos to all the teachers, the staff, the students and the production team. We are so excited to be part of a great show and we can't wait to see the final film!
J	Jane Huang on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ It's been five years since my daughter learns ballet and Chinese dance in Goh Ballet. The teachers are very experienced and responsible. They not only can inspire the kids, but also can maintain a precise curriculum. I like the school culture which makes a very good balance with high standard for techniques and sparkles kids enthusiasm for dance.
K	KIT LIU on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I talked to Goh ballet after my daughter attempted first class that we are still concerning about the covid situation. We would like to get credit and pay the tuition for the future use when Covid is over. The administration office wants us continue to pay and not going to make it as credit even if we are not attending class during this special COVID circumstance. Asking people to sign an unreasonable contract during COVID is selfish. I don't think I am the only parent who has this kind of concern and request. If Goh Ballet only cares about money during COVID and no show of human kindness, we will yield nothing to unreasonable demands. I even asked what if we caught up COVID at Goh Ballet, the administrator told me that we will not get COVID because they are following safety protocols. How can someone who isn't in lemology be so sure about this??? This just shows ignorance, arrogance and irresponsibleness. I am following safety protocols which suggests people not go out unless it is really necessary.
W	Wendy Wu on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My daughter has learned so much about ballet at the Goh Ballet Academy. All the teachers are so kind, supportive, patient, caring, and hopeful in the students that there going to be an astounding dancer one day. The Goh Ballet Academy is surprisingly incredible. The dancers there are all so passionate about their talent in dance what new and thrilling activities the Goh Ballet Academy can offer to them. We never chose other academies other than Goh Ballet Academy. Goh Ballet Academy is always the best choice for dancers.
J	Jim Biggens on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ My daughter danced for several years at the Goh. On the positive side they have a very prestigious name and have been around for a long time. They put on a large well received Nutcracker show every Christmas. On the negative side the classes were very large. The amount of hands on correction by the teachers was very low. When you've got 25 people in a class you don't have time to for individual attention. After a disappointing year we switched ballet schools and my daughter required significant remedial training to catch up with the dancers at the new school. Her technique was sloppy and the standards were much higher at the new school. With 6 dancers in the class at her new school she received significant and regular attention that she never got at the Goh and blossomed as a dancer. The Goh gave my daughter a start in dance which I appreciate but I can't currently recommend them. If you're a recreational dancer save your money and go elsewhere. If you're a serious dancer there are many better options in the Vancouver area.
G	Geoffrey Hainstock on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We are so impressed with how Goh Ballet quickly transitioned our daughter's ballet classes to an on-line format during the pandemic. With all of use largely indoors during this time, the teachers were able to continue their instruction in an engaging and enjoyable manner... our daughter was so happy to "Zoom" into her classes every week! Thank you everyone at Goh Ballet for your support and kindness during this time!
