Dance Life follows the top students of Australia's premier dance academy in their relentless pursuit to become professional dancers. The stakes are high and not everyone will make it.

Competitive street dance is a multi-million-dollar global industry. Competitors dedicate their lives to winning, pushing themselves to the brink physically, mentally and in many cases financially. Yet the sport exists in the urban fringes, largely discounted by the mainstream as a curiosity or misconceived as an Eighties hangover. But those within the world of street dance understand that it is more than this. It's a punishing mixture of athleticism and artistic expression, which promises empowerment and respect for those who rise to the top. KEEP STEPPING follows the parallel stories of Gabi and Patricia, two remarkably different female street dancers, as they train for the biggest street dance competition in Australia: Destructive Steps. A winning performance in their categories will bring independence and an escape from the lives they've been dealt. But first they must overcome financial hardship, injury, volatile relationships and even the risk of being deported. Filmed over seven years with intimate access to a breathtaking, but largely misunderstood art-form. KEEP STEPPING is a coming-of-age story about love, obsession and transformative power of performance.
