Tighter rhythm, more fun!

STEP MASTER, the iPhone app that lets you acquire the sense of rhythm that you need for dance.



In order to dance impressively, the crucial point is to keep the rhythm! This is something that even top dancers active on the world stage always keep in mind. Its easy to be distracted by flashy moves, but what really makes or breaks a performance is whether the dancer has internalized the tempo. The best way to become a better dancer is to improve your bodys core strength and your sense of rhythm.



STEP MASTER is a fun iPhone app that lets dancers from beginner to expert level improve their sense of rhythm as if they were playing a game. From basic steps to complex choreography, a total of 49 dance variations are provided. Each of these are clearly illustrated with motion graphics that rotate 360 degrees. Its the birth of a new dance training tool in which the accelerometer accurately detects the dancers sense of tempo, letting you master the moves.
