tep onto Stage Ltd was founded by Kirstie Smith in 2014 and started with 22 students in a church hall. We have now grown so much as a school and have many children/young adults who train with us throughout the week and at weekends in many disciplines at Walsgrave C of E Academy.

Step onto Stage Ltd has many incredible teachers who are regarded highly in the industry and who teach for the company during regular classes and workshops, which are ongoing throughout the academic year. As well as the team of teachers that are part of Step onto Stage Ltd, we also have a close group of people who have been with the company since the beginning and without them Step onto Stage could not run the way it has over the years.

Within Step onto Stage Ltd we offer the following classes:

* Ballet
* Tap
* Modern
* Gymnastics
* Musical Theatre Ensemble Singing
* Musical Theatre Jazz
* Commercial
* Contemporary

The main ethos at Step onto Stage (SOTS) is to be a safe and family environment, where children and young people can learn and develop their skills. SOTS is well known for its professional standard, attitude and well behaved students within the community as well as the many places we have had the opportunity to perform at, such as: The Abbey Theatre, Leamington Spa Centre, The Hilton hotel, Alton Towers and Birmingham Hippodrome. We were successful in our audition to dance at Disneyland Paris in 2020 but, unfortunately this has now been cancelled and we hope to offer this amazing opportunity to our students as soon as it is safe to.

🥉 Layla — Contemporary Solo
🥉 Felix — Contemporary Solo
🥉 Abi — Contemporary Solo

🥇 Florence, Layla & Madeleine — Inter Classical Trio
🥇 Senior Classical Troupe — Quiet
🥉 Senior Classical Troupe — 28
🥉 Senior Cabaret Troupe — Bad to the Bone

And to top it all off…

🏆 BEST CHOREOGRAPHY — Bad to the Bone! 🏆

So incredibly proud of every single dancer who stepped onto that stage. The progress over the past year has been phenomenal, and we can’t wait to see what the next year brings!

Well done, team you absolutely smashed it!
