Tap

Tap classes are designed to develop a dancer’s rhythm and musicality by using their feet like instruments. Tap dance styles can range from Broadway to Rhythm Tap. Tap is built on clarity of sound, musical phrasing, and coordination through intricate footwork and sound patterns. This is a fun and energetic way to learn tap vocabulary. This sense of musicality and rhythm can be applied to other dance disciplines.

Ages 8+, levels 1-4, recital option available.
