Stepping has always been an art form that we believe surpasses all art forms as you use your body to create sound. You become the instrument that helps guide the story line and the choreography. Throughout the many decades there has been many influences to stepping however we have never had the opportunity to have a world that celebrates it has mainstream is still unsure were we fit in. This is why we decided to create our a space within the dance world to celebrate the innovators, change-makers, and highlight methods of teaching, all to embrace and celebrate the world of step. Our approach is quite clear: We are a MOVEMENT!
