Welcome to Steps Dance Center

Welcome to Steps Dance Center – where passion meets purpose and every performer finds their place to shine.

Located in Aurora, just minutes from Naperville, we proudly offer a wide variety of classes for students of all ages, abilities, and aspirations. From tiny twirlers taking their first steps to teens preparing for the stage - and even adults rediscovering the joy of movement - we believe in creating a space where every artist feels challenged, supported, and inspired.

At Steps, we’re more than just a dance studio. We’re also home to a growing Theatre Department, offering classes in Stand-Up, Improv, and Acting on Camera, designed to help students build confidence, creativity, and stage presence both on and off the stage.

Our professional faculty provides expert instruction in Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Lyrical, Hip Hop, Contemporary, Acro, Theatre Arts, and more - all taught in six state-of-the-art studios with injury-preventive floating floors. Parents can observe through one-way viewing windows, and our space includes restrooms, a homework/study area, a break room, and Wi-Fi access to support busy families.

We are proud to be home to three unique competitive dance programs, each designed to meet dancers where they are - and help them grow.

Whether it’s your child’s first class, their next competition, or their chance to shine in theatre, our mission remains the same: to help every student grow with grace, grit, and confidence - one step at a time.
