About Us
More than a dancer.
Our Mission
What makes Moomoo's Studio unique?
At Moomoo's Studio, we empower students to embrace creativity, growth mindset, open communication, happiness, and healthy movement. Our mission is to provide every student with a flexible and personalized experience, tailored to their unique needs. We aim to help students become effective problem-solvers and lifelong learners. As a small but dedicated business, we take pride in providing a world-class studio experience where each student feels safe and welcome. Our studios feature renowned Harlequin flooring, professional ballet barres and mirrors, and exercise equipment.
What do we do at Moomoo's Studio?
Dance is at the heart of what we do. It offers countless benefits, including fostering discipline, determination, and elegance. However, we recognize that ballet—and dance in general—is not a one-size-fits-all art form. Every body is unique, which is why we prioritize creating customized dance-based exercise programs that nurture healthier joints and happier bodies.​​​
​
In addition to our diverse range of dance programs, we also provide a variety of afterschool programs: subject-specific tutoring, PA day classes, full-day camps, and drop-in dance workshops.
​
What's next for Moomoo's Studio?
We aspire to grow into a premier after-school program, where students can explore and develop a variety of talents all under one roof.

Meet Deeana Ou
Deeana Ou was born and raised in Canada and holds an undergraduate degree in Human Biology, Animal Physiology, and French Linguistics from the University of Toronto. She later earned a Bachelor of Education from York University, specializing in Biology and French. Deeana is also a certified teacher with the Ontario College of Teachers, and teaches in the York Region District School Board. Her passion for teaching was sparked when she began instructing classes in her first love—dance.
​
Deeana’s journey in dance began at the age of 5 when she took her first ballet lessons at The School of Toronto City Ballet. She quickly fell in love with the art form, completing all levels of the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus, including the prestigious Solo Seal Award examination. She has competed in local dance competitions such as StarCatchers and Galaxy of the Stars, earning multiple Judges’ Choice and overall awards. In 2015, Deeana reached the Semi-Finals of the Genée International Ballet Competition (now the Margot Fonteyn International Ballet Competition) in London, UK. Her versatility extends to other styles of dance, including contemporary, hip-hop, K-pop, and Chinese dance.
​
Deeana furthered her dedication to dance education by completing the Certificate of Ballet Teaching Studies with the RAD, earning her status as a Registered Teacher. Her diverse interests and deep passion for teaching inspired her to become an entrepreneur, founding a space where students can explore and develop a wide range of skills and talents. Outside of teaching, Deeana enjoys crocheting, arts and crafts, singing, playing musical instruments, baking, modeling, and continually learning new things.
