At STEPPS, we provide a 360-degree support ecosystem designed specifically for the unique demands of the dance community.
Medical & Rehabilitation Grants
Financial support for specialised dance medicine physios, surgeries, and recovery equipment.
24/7 Mental Wellness & Crisis Support
Confidential tele-counselling with therapists trained specifically in performing arts psychology.
Career Transition & Retraining
Educational bursaries and career coaching for dancers transitioning into teaching, choreography, or new sectors.
