Class Descriptions

Building confidence, fostering intelligence, inspiring creativity and encouraging expression — the Steffi Nossen School of Dance nurtures artists, one dancer at a time.

The Steffi Nossen Method features a uniform and sequential curriculum based in modern dance that is designed to develop individual creativity while placing an emphasis on technique and proper body alignment. Our experienced faculty fosters the joy of dance along with its inherent discipline, training professionals and recreational dancers alike with equal encouragement and enthusiasm. In addition to our modern dance core curriculum, we also offer ballet, jazz, tap, hip hop, yoga and composition as well as classes for those with special needs.

Our strong educational model focuses on building character, self-esteem and skills that will last a lifetime, in our supportive, inclusive environment. Students develop grace and physical fitness, build confidence and poise, experience the creative process and build lasting friendships. Classes also feature live music to enhance our dancers’ musicality, promote a collaborative atmosphere and allow faculty greater flexibility in teaching.
