L'Ontario compte plus de hālau (écoles de hula) et de studios de danse polynésienne inscrits que toute autre province du répertoire — treize écoles et groupes, la plupart dans la grande région de Toronto, avec d'autres à Markham, à Mississauga et à London.

Ensemble, ils enseignent un large éventail de styles : le hula kahiko (hula ancien) et le hula ʻauana (hula moderne), le ʻori tahitien (danse tahitienne), le kapa haka māori (danse māori) et le mele (chant hawaïen). Plusieurs de ces groupes dansent ensemble depuis des décennies. Hālau Hula O Walea, à Markham, est l'un des plus grands hālau de la région du Grand Toronto; en 2025, il est devenu seulement le deuxième hālau canadien à être invité à concourir à la Queen Liliʻuokalani Keiki Hula Competition, à Honolulu. Hālau Hula I Ka Lā, aussi à Markham, est le hālau qui présente AlohaFest Toronto, la première et unique célébration unifiée de la culture polynésienne de la ville.

Où que vous soyez dans la grande région de Toronto, ou plus loin à London, il y a de bonnes chances qu'une des écoles ci-dessous enseigne près de chez vous. Et si vous enseignez, ou connaissez, un hālau, un studio ou un groupe de danse en Ontario qui n'est pas encore inscrit, soumettez-le et notre équipe de curation vous répondra.
