Description

STEPS Youth Dance Company is a not for profit part-time organisation offering extraordinary dance experiences for young people. STEPS engages Arts professionals to inspire, mentor and work with young company members (9-25) to develop performance skills, increase confidence and engage the creative energy of dancers and audiences alike exposing them to the transformative power of dance.

STEPS dancers are selected through auditions and applications. Members of the company have the opportunity to take part in skills development, creative workshops, rehearsals and professional public performance opportunities.

STEPS also provides exciting vehicles for young choreographers to develop, explore and bring to fruition their ideas through mentorship, choreographic workshops and studio showings. STEPS are proud to facilitate the development of a body of youth choreography.
