Musical school for children 4-12 years old
By playing, communicating and fantasizing, we teach children the basics of musical theater
USA, California, Glendale, Irvine
About the school
The Big Steps Musical School is a space where children develop in three directions at once: vocals, acting and dancing.
With the help of our classes, the child is liberated, more confident on stage, better controls his voice, body and supports his native language, communicating with teachers and other children in a lively, relaxed atmosphere.
Our value is friendship!
Teachers become not only mentors for children, but also real friends!
Psychological approach
We took the best of the   Soviet education system, combining it   with  knowledge of child psychology. By maintaining discipline and striving for results, we manage to create an atmosphere of lightness, emotional comfort and involvement for children!
Our teachers are acting artists
Teachers have not only qualified education, experience working with children, but also many years of stage experience. They inspire children by their example!
Real concert practice
We don't just teach children to sing and dance, we give them the opportunity. to practice the acquired skills on stage, in a real concert setting. This is extremely important. Children get an incredible boost when they see the supportive eyes of their parents and hear the applause of the audience.
Convenient learning format
In ONE place and for ONE lesson per week, the child, under the guidance of three professional teachers, works out THREE directions at once: vocals, dancing and acting.

We are waiting for you in class on Sundays. Each group has its own duration of classes.

  • My daughter has been studying for several months. For me, the main indicator is the child's great desire to go to class. After school, she is very inspired. She really likes Elena, and I, as a mother, like that the child is happy.

  • My daughter Vasilisa has been going to Elena's group classes for more than six months. At first, like all children, she was shy. But thanks to Lena's professional approach, she opened up. Now she goes to classes with pleasure. Even at home he sings his favorite songs, pleases me and all his relatives. I met new friends in class, which is also very cool. I thank Lena for her hard work and patience.
