About the STEPP Program:

For the past thirty five years Pegasus Studios has been mentoring young leaders through our Student Teacher Education Pegasus Program in our summer camps.  This season we are taking our STEPP program to a new level with a full school year curriculum.  For students 11 to 18 years old we offer monthly lessons and meet ups in leadership, as well as in class training as assistants to our faculty.  The lessons learned in this program are not only paving the way for those students interested in a career in dance, but will be beneficial for all students in their post secondary pursuits.

The STEPP Leadership Program will:

• Give youth training in working with children of various age groups
• Help youth develop interpersonal and leadership skills 
• Provides youth with training and experience they can apply to future employment 
• Lays the foundations for youth to continue training towards being arts educators

Curriculum:

Our curriculum has been designed by artistic director Jane Davis-Munro drawing on her 40 plus years of teaching in the arts with the support of various resources such as Taking Shape Star Leadership, Youth Protection Advocates in Dance, RISE Mindset and Rhythm Works Integrative Dance.  Areas of study include leadership, child development, class management, health and safety, personal growth, class design, dance pedagogy and project management.  This program grows with our students over the course of their middle and high school years and will provide graduates with certificates of completion and reference letters.

Graduates of our previous STEPP program have gone on to assist and teach in our studio as well as pursued careers outside of dance.  If you would like more information and to apply please email Jane at [email protected]
