We are First Step and Highland Dance School, a dance school for children 2 years to adults. We cater for all levels and abilities. Dancers can choose to dance purely for fun and fitness, do exams, perform or compete, there is an option for everyone! 
At First Step we believe that dancing should be a part of every child's life and that just as children take their first steps, so to do they start to embrace a love of movement and dance. At First Step we believe that the basics and fundamental techniques can, and should, be taught while children explore and develop their sense of movement and rhythm.
