About Steps of Faith..
Steps of Faith Dance Ministry was formed in June 1997 in order to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ through dance and music. In the Fall of that year, the dance school was formed to teach proper dance technique in Ballet, Tap, and Jazz. Over the years, we have added Worship dance, Modern, Pointe, Hip-Hop, Mom-n-Me, Ballroom, and Pilates/Body Conditioning to our curriculum. Workshops in Ballroom dancing and Irish Dancing are offered.
Steps of Faith uses wholesome, Christian music and prayer in each of its classes to inspire Godly values in our students. A comprehensive classical ballet program using the Vaganova technique has been developed to train young women interested in a professional career in dance as well as those who simply want to use the dance for recreation or for worship. SOF is that place you can have the best of both worlds: recieve classical training and a passion for worship! We are proud to have several of our graduates serving God in missionary roles, serving God through dance and missions, as well as being offered roles in regional professional ballet productions!
Classes are available for ages two through adults and for all technical levels, including the pre-professional dancer! During the year, SOF offers early afternoon and morning classes for the convenience of preschoolers and homeschoolers. Scholarships and financial aid are available on a very limited basis.
