Who We Are
Step By Step Dance (SBSD) is an organization dedicated to uplifting individuals with special needs through the transformative power of dance. Through dance classes, social events, and inclusive outreach, we work to create spaces where every dancer feels seen, valued, and free to express themselves.
At its core, our mission is to uplift individuals with special needs through movement and expression. We recognize that everyone’s needs are unique and deserving of care and respect. That’s why we’re here: to celebrate every dancer, challenge outdated ideas about disability, and empower all to move, connect, and shine.

Testimonials
Naomi and Step By Step were a great partner for our virtual adaptive dance clinic. We work with youth with different abilities and Naomi broke down the steps and communicated patiently and effectively for all youth to follow on. All of our participants had a great time!
