A major contributor to the art form is the West African Gioube, which is a dance brought in by enslaved Africans. Tap shoes are encouraged for this class to better practice producing the proper rhythms made by taps.

Tap is a historical dance form that emphasizes rhythm, syncopation and musicality of the feet in tap shoes. Combinations can be performed to music with the feet following the beats provided, or without music (a cappella) where the feet generate the musicality on their own.
