Steps Academy

The Steps Academy is a premier dance training program located on New York City’s Upper West Side. It serves students aged 2 to 18 by providing comprehensive dance education from world-renowned faculty members. The diverse curriculum includes classes in ballet, pointe, tap, jazz, hip hop, theater dance, modern, and contemporary, and offers multiple performance opportunities.

At the Steps Academy, it is believed that everyone possesses unique talents and abilities and that it is the responsibility of educators to reveal the gifts in every student. The Academy is committed to creating a safe space for students to grow and thrive, and it believes that every dancer should be given equal opportunity to discover themselves through dance.

Graduates of the program flourish in the professional dance world and are among the top picks for elite college dance programs, conservatories, and dance companies, as well as commercial and Broadway work.
