A Step Above Dance & Music Academy opened in 1988 as an option for dancers and their parents who prefer dance training based in positive reinforcement and concern for the self-esteem
and self-image of the young dancer.

Director Tami Bisbee teaches with a faculty of highly-trained, caring teachers who are looking forward to helping you and your child develop a lifelong respect and appreciation for the performing arts.

Learn more about our classes!
We offer excellent technical training through our unique curriculum that has trained so many before. Dance training not only prepares a dancer for a possible dance career or college dance. People who grow up dancing tend to have excellent time management skills, self-confidence, better memory and concentration, more energy, better balance and flexibility, and lifelong friendships.
Ages 8-18 years old
The Steps Program
All about creating lasting friendships, fostering the love of dance, and following an age-based curriculum and learning a strong dance eduation. A variety of classes are offered to give the dancer room to grow with the flexibility to pursue other interests. Ballet is not required but encouraged.
