Tap dance is a form of dance characterised by using the sounds of tap shoes striking the floor as a form of percussion.
DurationTap dance is a form of dance characterised by using the sounds of tap shoes striking the floor as a form of percussion. Two major variations on tap dance exist: rhythm (jazz) tap and Broadway tap.
Broadway tap focuses more on the dance movement and it is widely performed in musical theatre. Rhythm tap focuses on musicality, and practitioners consider themselves to be a part of the Jazz tradition. Evolve Students are often nominated to go to the New Zealand National Dance Awards held annually by the NZAMD .
We have also had amazing feedback from our examiners each year on the high quality tapping we are demonstrating.
At Evolve we teach the New Zealand Association of Modern Dance syllabus for Hip Hop, Jazz, Ballet, Tap and Contemporary. This syllabus taught correctly can give pupils the skills to pursue a career in dance both in New Zealand and abroad.
It challenges children of all abilities and helps lay the foundations necessary for a career in dance while also catering for children who may be looking for a physical outlet and just love to dance.
Both international and New Zealand choreographers have come together to create hundreds of exercises and dancers that are taught across the country. At Evolve we love to support New Zealand owned and operated companies and the New Association of Modern Dance embodies all the values we wish to instill in our pupils.
L.O.D follows the AJDA Tap syllabus and offers kids Tap classes for all ages and abilities.
For 4-6 year olds. In this class students will make lots of noise with their feet! They will be taught how to use their toe and heel plates and learn about rhythm and timing in a nurturing and fun learning environment. This class is based on the NZAMD Pre grade tap syllabus.
The BAL syllabus teaches excellent rhythm and we believe is one of the best tap syllabi available especially for younger students.
Tap has had many different stages in its evolution; from its roots in African American history and into the silver screen years with Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers and Gene Kelly, to the Tap Dogs and Boot Men of today.
Tap dance is the most effective way to develop precision in rhythmic movement and sound.
