J-Troupe (short for Junior Troupe[1]) is comprised of young members of The Next Step Dance Studio who will eventually move up to B-Troupe and, hopefully, A-Troupe.
History
J-Troupe is first seen when Daniel, with Tiffany's assistance, choreographs a routine for them.[2]
In preparation for the 17th Annual Absolute Dance Regionals competition, the members of J-Troupe compose a song for A-Troupe to wish them luck.[3] With a surge of new prospective dancers after The Next Step Dance Studio's Regionals win, J-Troupe auditions are held, changing the members of the troupe.[4]
A number of J-Troupers take part in an acro class taught by Eldon and Thalia, which appears to be one of many classes J-Troupers take part in.[5]
Amanda becomes a teacher of the troupe after the studio's loss at the 18th Annual Absolute Dance Regionals competition, but steps down from the position after getting a chance to go on tour. Richelle assumes her position.[6]
After Heather proves herself to be responsible to Emily, she becomes a teacher for both J-Troupe and Baby Ballet.[7] However, after Miss Angela becomes studio head, Heather leaves to go to college.[8]
After Miss Angela leaves The Next Step, Emily runs J-Troupe's rehearsal with them.[9]

Uniform
Presumably at the same time that A-Troupe gains its uniform, J-Troupe is given a similar one albeit with just the jacket.[15] Like the A-Troupe jacket, it has The Next Step's two logos on the front and back, and has "J-Troupe" written on each shoulder. The jacket is red. It can be presumed that the J-Troupe jacket, like the A-Troupe uniforms, was designed by Zoltan and Minnow.
While the design of A-Troupe's uniform changes after Season 4, Presley is shown wearing the original J-Troupe jacket in Season 6, implying that it is still in use.[16]
