STEP AFRIKA!

Student Affairs Diversity and Inclusion

Step Afrika! is a Dance Company dedicated to the tradition of stepping.  This polyrhythmic percussive symphony will bring you to your feet!

Cal Poly Performing Arts Center

Founded in 1994, as an exchange program with the Soweto Dance Theatre of Johannesburg, Step Afrika! is the first professional Dance Company in the world dedicated to the tradition of stepping. It is the United States largest African American led arts organization in Washington, DC and Washington, DC’s only cultural ambassador.

Step Afrika!’s full-time dancers—all college graduates—many who attended Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) and are members of Historically Black Greek Fraternities and Sororities. Each year Step Afrika! engages 30,000 college students across the nation teaches teamwork and discipline to all that participate.

As part of the world’s first interactive stepping exhibit, thousands experience Step Afrika! at the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture each day as part of the museum’s Explore More! interactive gallery.
Step Afrika! made its Broadway debut of The Migration: Reflections on Jacob Lawrence on November 10, 2017, which successfully ran for three weeks at the New Victory Theatre in New York City.
