Steven Butler

STEVEN BUTLER embarked on his dance journey at the age of 16. He saw contemporary dance in videos and television shows, and began taking formal lessons... His teachers encouraged him to develop his amazing natural talent, and to explore the field of choreography.

Soon, he was asked to teach hip-hop at several dance studios in and around his hometown in Dallas, Texas. Shortly after, he was accepted into the dance program at Oklahoma City University, under the tutelage of Jo Rowan, a former world-renowned prima ballerina and teacher.

Moving to Los Angeles, Steven earned a scholarship to study at The Edge, in Hollywood, where his training broadened to include tap, modern, and salsa.

He has worked on numerous professional jobs including Busch Gardens in Tampa Bay, Florida; Industrials for Kingston Technologies, Qualcomm, Tanqueray, Pixar animation and Macy's; Music videos with Ludacris, Macy Gray, Keesha, and Freda Simone; TV shows for UPN, Fox Family, The Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, ABC, NBC, and MTV.

Steven's choreography has won awards at numerous conventions and competitions, as well as praise from dance studios around the USA. He has choreographed for the NBA's Los Angeles Clippers and Orlando Magic dance teams. Steven has also worked with Spectra Management, choreographing videos, television, and stage shows for multi-platinum recording artist Aaron Carter as well as his sister Leslie and up-and-coming artist, Nonny. Most recently, he has been working with new artist Alexandra Monir, who opened for O-Town on their last summer tour.

Steven is busy establishing himself as an artist and choreographer--studying his craft while inspiring other young dancers to pursue their dreams of dance--and applying technique to the mix!
