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.
Students ages 7 and up are invited to move beyond the combination class into a 45-minute tap technique class. Â This, fun, high energy class will emphasize proper tap progressions, styles, and rhythms. Â Tap students will perform one routine in the Spring Recital.
This class introduces students to the fundamentals of tap dance. Students will learn tap terminology while working on the embodiment of rhythm, coordination, and musicality. (Suggested attire: comfortable clothing for movement, tap shoes)
