Steps 2 Stardom Performing Arts Academy

👑✨ Meet our Ready Set Royalty star, Ilaria! ✨👑

Our Ready Set Royalty are our dedicated little dancers who participate in all three Ready Set classes every week — Ready Set Dance, Ready Set Ballet and Ready Set Acro. Being part of the full Ready Set program helps our students build confidence, coordination, creativity and a love of performing, all while having so much fun with their teachers and friends.

Beautiful Ilaria is 3 years old, and her favourite Ready Set class is Ready Set Ballet. She loves coming to Ready Set Dance because she loves dancing in class with her friends, and Ready Set Dance makes her feel that it’s so much fun, she loves her teachers, and she loves being part of class. Her favourite Ready Set character is Twirl, and when she grows up, she would love to be Rumi from Huntrix. 💖

We are so excited to celebrate Ilaria as part of our 2026 Ready Set Royalty and love seeing her beautiful personality shine in our Ready Set family! 🌟💕

👑✨ Meet our Ready Set Royalty star, Sophia! ✨👑

Our Ready Set Royalty are our wonderful little dancers who participate in all three Ready Set classes every week — Ready Set Dance, Ready Set Ballet and Ready Set Acro. Being part of the full Ready Set program helps our students build confidence, coordination, creativity and a love of performing, all while having so much fun along the way.

Our Ready Set Royalty features are a special way to celebrate these gorgeous students and share a little more about their personalities, favourite things and what they love most about dance.

Beautiful Sophia is 4 years old, and her favourite Ready Set class is Ready Set Ballet. She loves coming to Ready Set Dance because of the Hop Little Bunny dance song, and Ready Set Dance makes her feel great, very excited and like a princess! 👑💖

Sophia’s favourite Ready Set character is Twirl, and when she grows up, she would love to be a vet. 🐾

We are so proud to celebrate Sophia as part of our 2026 Ready Set Royalty and love having her shine as part of our Steps 2 Stardom dance family! 🌟💕

✨ LEADING THE WAY FOR THE FUTURE OF DANCE EDUCATION ✨

Today, Miss Annette is proudly attending the Creative Childhoods Summit 2026, held at the iconic Sydney Dance Company.

This is the first summit of its kind in Australia, bringing together leaders from across the dance and performing arts industry to focus on building safer, healthier futures for children and young people in dance and performing arts education.

At Steps 2 Stardom, we believe being a leader in dance education means continually learning, evolving and looking ahead. It means making sure the environments we create for our students are not only inspiring and nurturing, but also safe, healthy, supportive and centred around the wellbeing of every child.

We’re incredibly proud that Miss Annette is taking part in this important conversation and helping to lead the way into the future of our industry. 💜

The future of dance education matters — and we’re proud to be part of shaping it.
