ToriArts Studios (Madeley) in short
ToriArts Studios (Madeley) runs dance and aerial arts from a purpose-built Madeley studio on Russell Square, covering ballet, tap, street, aerial hoop and acrobatics. Teachers state IDTA qualifications, RAD and ISTD ballet training and enhanced DBS checks, with aerial instructor credentials alongside. Our review finds the dance-plus-aerial mix under one roof its clear draw.
The record shows two purpose-built rooms sharing one timetable. Ballet, tap, street, aerial hoop and acrobatics run across the Madeley studio on Russell Square and its Wellington sister site, so families pick the nearer door. Booking runs through an app, and phone and email routes sit beneath it for parents who prefer to talk first. Classes take children, teens and adults together under one system, which keeps two studios feeling like one school.
Customers give it five stars on Google, though across a small base so far. The first class is free and booking runs through an app, which keeps joining simple for parents juggling work and school runs. Our review finds that customer verdict on a small base the normal shape for a young company, with the base still building.
What counts against ToriArts Studios (Madeley) is youth: the limited company behind the studios dates only to February of this year, and no insurance details are published. A young company with an open booking book awaits a longer record.
Our verdict
Our judgement: ToriArts Studios Madeley suits children, teens and adults on the Madeley side of Telford who want dance and aerial arts under one roof, with qualified staff and online booking [1]. What counts against it is youth as a company: incorporation dates only to February 2026, and no insurance details are published [1] [2]. Its 5.0 Google rating across 7 reviews, seen 4 September 2026, is spotless but small [3].
