Steps Dance Center is remarkable on many levels in many ways. They offer terrific instruction of a wide variety of types of dance, but that’s merely the beginning. The teachers foster a nurturing environment that conveys how much each child is cared for as an individual. Our daughter takes jazz, tap, hip hop, ballet, and acro. She began last year in recreational classes, and enjoyed it so much that she asked to audition for the Steps Dance Team. She is now a proud member of the dance company and thoroughly enjoyed her first competition at CoDance this past weekend. The community spirit among Steps dancers, teachers, and parents at CoDance felt tangible. I didn’t see any crazy “dance mom” stuff – only encouragement, positive support, and lots of laughter. I also find that Steps choreography has an artistic quality that makes each number “uniquely Steps” with creative props and cleverly crafted costumes. I was not surprised to learn that behind the scenes there’s a high level of commitment and collaboration not only from the teachers, but parents as well contributing their talents. Throughout CoDance, Steps dancers demonstrated terrific dance technique and exuded confidence, but it was also evident that they were enjoying themselves. As spectators, we can’t help but get caught up in their enthusiasm. As a result, I found that a Fox Valley Showcase and at CoDance, as a member of the audience, I didn’t need a program to know which dances belong to Steps. Before our daughter’s first performance this weekend, her dance instructor huddled her team together and reinforced yet again that she wanted them to do their best, support each other, and most importantly have fun. After three days of dancing, I had anticipated that our daughter would need a break. However, she can’t wait to go back to Steps tomorrow. We came to Steps so our daughter could learn to dance, but already she’s grown in more ways than “simply dancing.” Self-esteem and working well with others while doing her best are valuable skills she’ll use the rest of her life. Thank you, Steps, for the endless inspiration.

Steps Dance Center is such a unbelievably well rounded dance facility. It offers a wide variety of styles and levels of dance, for all skills and ages. The teachers/instructors come from all over the United States to provide quality workshops, master classes, weekly classes, and individual privates. All these classes are uniquely designed to challenge your son/daughter and give them the best dance experience ever. My daughter has danced with STEPS for over 6 years, and feels like she has found a second home. The skills she has acquired is compliment to STEPS and their unbelievable staff. They are a professional studio, with staff that care solely in making your dancer his/her very best.

This is my daughters 4th year at Steps Dance Center, and they still continue to impress me! This studio offers the unique combination of a spacious facility, staffed by the best dance teachers in the Chicagoland, and all set in a warm and nurturing environment. The teachers here are made up of industry professionals who are either currently dancing and choreographing and those who have had full careers as professional dancers. My daughter has grown so much, both in dance and as an individual, under the expert instruction of the staff here. They truly care about each and every child at Steps! As a mom, I feel so fortunate that this is where my daughter calls here second home!

I do believe this studio is under new direction & is definitely making progress! The new teachers have phenomenal resumes (professional performance AND teaching experience) I have not experienced any drama & the teachers do not play favorites (which is something that has changed drastically!) The newer staff seems to be trying to change the overall outlook for the studio with good morals & business ethics!

Great studio all-around; great teachers, positive atmosphere. Something here for every kind of dancer, whether it be dancing for recreation or training to be a professional, this is the place to be! We attended another local studio for 8 years before switching to Steps and I wish we would have found them sooner!
