I got started with Steppaz as my daughter attended 1 session at the age of 3 and now performs and attends competitions worldwide

As a former Ice-skater competing worldwide i understand the love for the arts even if its just a hobby, and as a parent I also understand the difficulties parents may face being part of an academy

With a love to teach our next generation and working with our youth Is so incredibly rewarding. I have had amazing opportunities as a chaperone for Steppaz. Currently I'm Parent liason assistant. A parent Governor and Chair for our PTA for St Marks Church of England primary school.

Having a passion for music at an early age, I always knew I wanted to share the same element of enjoyment I experienced with everyone I came into contact with. Obtaining a Bachelor Degree with Honours in Music Performance, I found myself connected with many organisations that have a music team catering to youth (Haringey Shed & Hackney Empire to name a few). Having written scores for many music production and facilitating accessibility for many people and music, I continue to share my passion through lyric, melody and song.

My name is Kyra and i started Steppaz in 2014, growing up with family full of dancers and singers i always knew i would fall into path. I went to many performing arts workshops and that’s when i knew i wanted to dance. I’ve done many thing like cheerleading, dancing, gymnastics, football, netball and many more, but my dance journey at Steppaz was amazing i had many opportunities such as; going on tour, going glasgow and the netherlands. I  believe steppaz helps the youth follow their dreams and i want to be apart of an organisation that’s leads kids to greatness just how they lead me to many opportunities in life. I’ve had amazing teachers over the years that’s really helped me view life differently and i want other kids to have many different perspectives in life so they can grow physically and mentally.

My passion for dance came around when I joined Steppaz competition team, we competed all over the place and gained many titles. I then decided to compete internationally all over the world from Glasgow to Arizona representing the UK. It was so inspiring to see the way other countries choreograph and train, since then I never really turned back. I’ve had some amazing mentors in dance that have helped pushed me into a professional career and for that I’ll be forever grateful, I’ve since performed with artists on tours, featured in many music videos, and performed in the most respected venues. I continue my dance training whilst I share the knowledge I do have with the younger generation. I wish there were more dance teachers like my dance teachers and that’s my aim, if I can make at least one dancer believe in themselves and their abilities then I will feel satisfied.

Dance has always been a passion of mine from a very young age, kick starting my training at Steppaz, being nurtured and moulded into the person I am today, igniting my passion, going to a dance college and furthering my training in other styles such as ballet, tap, jazz and contemporary as well as street.

I have been given numerous opportunities to work alongside a lot of talented creatives in the industry, such as performing in the LYFT festival touring around the UK and competing in numerous competitions around Europe. I have gotten to experience mind blowing performances and networking with amazing people, which has expanded my vision as a dancer and choreographer.

I have been a junior choreographer working alongside our wonderful artistic director; she had given me the confidence to submit my own work to an annual showcase platform and I was chosen amongst 10 other choreographers to perform their piece to a selected audience .

I wouldn’t have been able to do anything if it wasn’t for my Steppaz family pushing me and I want to reciprocate and spread my knowledge and love of dance to everyone I meet.

Always having a passion for dance I’ve trained in a many places since the age of 4 including Steppaz. Having many opportunities there like competing in world championships and performing on tour with LIFT, I gained confidence in making my own choreography. I went on to leading session at the age of 15, teaching in multiple boroughs. Mainly Enfield where I now choreograph for Steppaz at VIPS and Bell Lane Youth Centre.

My name is Jermaine and I’ve been at Steppaz since 2015.

I started by doing a summer workshop to make a musical in a week and I instantly fell in Love with Steppaz and signed up for the next term doing drama, as I was nervous to try the dance classes.

After a doing a couple of shows at Steppaz my confidence grew, and with the inspiration of the other dancers, I took my first dance class and I have never looked back!

In 2019 I joined the competition team and learned so many skills developing myself as a dancer, and so many opportunities to dance at theatres such as the Hackney Empire, Royal Albert Hall and on the Queens Platinum Jubilee Parade.  I have also performed in many competitions all over the country, and have now been given the amazing opportunity to join the Steppaz team as an apprentice.

I fell in love with dance from the age of 4. I started doing ballet and hip hop at my local church group and went on to train hip hop professionally with 2 groups called IMD legion and The Movement Factory. With these groups I competed in the world championships in America and competed in Denmark, performed at Move it, was a part of the Nike airforce campaign which included having videos of me dancing in Oxford Circus Nike shop, got to Britains Got Talent semi finals and much more. I was also selected to do a dance teaching course which was sponsored by Nike where I got to teach weekly and received all my qualifications such as my first aid certificate and my DBS. This course made me realise my passion for teaching and working with children and made me decide to do it as a long term job. Whilst training I also managed to gain a distinction In BTEC dance and went on to also receive two distinctions in performing arts and dance A level.  I have now been dancing for 16 years and teaching for 3 years. I currently train with one of the leading hip hop groups in the Uk called Boy Blue and I teach with Steppaz and my competition group called Superlit!Write a description for this tab and include information that will interest site visitors.

My name is Jay Allen a new member to the Steppaz Team. My journey with Steppaz started with their battle event in 2021 to which I judged at and from there I noticed the talent, the drive and passion of each of the students and it inspired and motivated me to share my knowledge with them. 

A little bit about me; I started dance in 2015 at a dance company similar to Steppaz called ‘Warriorz performing arts’ which taught me my street and hip hop foundations. I have been an active member with the ‘freestyle/battle’ community for a number of years competing and winning two battles in 2018 & 2019. From there I’ve graduated from Urdang Academy in 2021 and since then I have been involved in; professional work such as music videos, commercials, shows & teaching within primary schools and at Warriorz. 

Dance is my passion and I personally love the community and sharing that dance provides and this is what drives me to be a teacher. 

Francesco’s aspiration in life has been, and always will be to become a dance practitioner. Ever since discovering dance, He has been fascinated by its way of empowering dancers with the art of expression, and he deems dance as a valuable asset for the generations to come.

Having graduated from the University of East London with first class honours he became a massive believer that knowledge is power. His experiences with BoyBlue Ent, and Breakin Convention as well as being part of projects such as WalkWithAmal and Queen’s Platinum Jubilee (just to name a few) have given him the knowledge he needs to start giving back. He has also put up choreographic projects of my own, such as Studio 3 Arts: Vital Stage, UEL’s Scratch Lab, and created sets for various competitions. Over his arch of training as a dancer and educator from battle scenes to stage work he has honed in on his craft and sharpening the knowledge needed when it comes to teaching Urban dance styles. He now feels ready more than ever to take it a step further and grow as an educator and artist.

I am a lover of the arts. I believe that performing arts allows us to express our artistic visions freely, like painting a picture but with bodies and voices on a stage. Through dance, drama, and music,we get to explore and appreciate different cultures, fostering a sense of openness and understanding. From a young age I have been passionate about dance,being a self taught afro dancer as a child, beginning ballet at 7, street dance at 10 and focusing on heels for the last two years. I am committed to creating a safe space for children to ‘paint their picture’ and harness their love for dance.
