The Foundation:

The Steffi Nossen Dance Foundation is a not-for-profit serving Westchester County as a dance resource—promoting the awareness of dance, the opportunity to dance, and enriching the dance environment for students, professionals and audiences. Founded as a modern dance school in 1937 by dance legend Steffi Nossen, we are the oldest dance school in Westchester County and offer the highest quality of dance education and performance opportunities for all ages and abilities. In 1958 the school was established as a private trust and Foundation and then in 1982 was established as a not-for-profit. We continue today with the same teaching philosophy that Steffi imbued it with more than eighty years ago. Anyone can dance — and everyone should!
