The Next Step follows the lives of a group of dancers at The Next Step Dance Studio as they attempt to win regional, national, and international dance championships.

It’s not just about winning, though. It’s about working together, accepting everyone for who they are, and finding their footing as these young dancers become young adults. The Next Step is a half-hour, single-camera tween drama featuring an elite group of dancers whose personal lives and competitive natures sometimes get in the way of becoming the great dance squad they could be. Over the course of the series, each of our characters will learn that the only way they’re going to make it is to put their differences aside and find a way to work together.
