Testimonials:
We are very happy with our decision to move our girls to Perform Art Studios. The quality of instruction is high, the class sizes are more realistic, and the individual attention has resulted in a remarkable improvement for both girls - and that's not just our opinion, it is reflected in their Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) results and our older daughter's move, completely of her own volition, from interested to dedicated.
James & Laurie Lawson-Baird
Perform Art Studios is more like a family than a dance school. Miranda and Ian and their wonderful instructors have created a caring, supportive place for students to explore all aspects of dance, music, and performance. Our daughter is learning how to rise to the physical and mental challenges she encounters in her dance classes, and these are skills we see her using in many other aspects of her life too. Small classes and enthusiastic teachers equal happy, successful students – and parents.
Deb McVitte
The half day program at Perform Art Studios has been wonderful for our family.It has enabled our daughter to keep up her regular intensive dance training program and have time in the evenings for family time and homework.
Sali Chippett and Gordon More
Simply put switching our children to Perform Art Studios has been the best move! The focus & quality of training is at the highest professional level. The schools performances and production are in a league of their own and our children just love each dance class! -Thanks Miss Miranda and all the teachers for a wonderful positive experience in dance.

My son's dance classes have never been so enjoyable! Boys Unlimited is an inspiring class for my son who is learning so much! Its just great to see how much he has picked up in just one year - he just can't stop dancing! You have a very welcoming and "boy" friendly studio! Thanks for offering the North Shore such a wonderful dance school.

We provide a focused and informative approach to art instruction which allows students to discover the expressive possibilities of new materials and techniques.At Freehand School of Art, our aim is to engage our students with the world around them using eye, mind and hand.

Often, this natural process becomes inhibited as they grow up. We are committed to nurturing creativity in young children and re-igniting it in everyone else.
Freehand School of art is owned and operated by Vivian East who brings a high level of expertise in art education gained in more than 30 years of involvement in arts communities in Toronto, and Julia Ramdeholl who brings current perspectives on the arts to the school.
