About this gym
Founded in 2017 by Artistic Director Kathryn Harden, Steps PDX was created to bring exceptional dance training and a sense of belonging to the Portland community. What began as a single studio has grown into a thriving space where dancers of all ages and experience levels can learn, create, and connect. Programs range from creative movement for the youngest dancers to pre-professional training for students preparing for a future in the arts. A team of 20 faculty members bring backgrounds as professional dancers, choreographers, and educators.
