We offer the Pullars Dance Academy Tap syllabus and the students are examined yearly at Newcastle Dance Academy.
DurationTap dance is a style of dance which developed in the United States in the 19th century. Originally, tap dance appeared in black minstrel shows, but by the 1920s, it had become popular with both blacks and whites.
In tap dance, performers wear shoes which have been equipped with metal plates. As the dancer moves, the plates click against the dance floor, creating a characteristic tapping sound. Tappers can create a variety of percussive rhythms with their feet by tapping, sliding, and clicking the metal plates.
Tap dancing focuses on rhythm and musicality and has been seen on Broadway for many years.
Newcastle Dance Academy is owned by Tracy Caldwell and Roxanne McCourtie.
We purchased a small studio in 1996 with 10 weeks of the year to go, we rented church halls and continued to grow and move around locations until 1999 when we moved to the Hobart Road premises. The June 2007 floods, like many people, caused much devastation to the property.
We managed to battle on, but it was time for new premises. We purchased the Broadmeadow Glass and Aluminium building at the end of 2008 and in 2009 we opened the doors to the 5 studio purpose built complex that is now home to around 200 students.
We aim to provide the very best advice to the parents on quality dance education and the very best teaching available. Our staff are wonderful professionals in the industry and we create a warm and friendly environment for everyone.
Our staff are fully qualified with Royal Academy of Dance. We are consistently learning and studying under the CPD (continual professional development) program provided by the RAD.
Our motivation comes from the passion we share as educators and the environment we create for delivering the best possible learning environment for young children. Newcastle Dance Academy is a child safe organisation with all staff having their Working with Children check.
We are Newcastle born and breed, we are professionals that wish to share our knowledge and experiences and give opportunity to the young- We care for the students and the families and we pride ourselves on providing the very best dancing environment.

Tap dancing takes its name from the small metal plates on the dancer's shoes which make a "tapping" sound when they strike a hard floor. Lively and rhythmic tapping makes the performer not just a dancer, but also a percussive musician, as Tap dancers make frequent use of syncopation.
Tap dancing has become a very distinct art form. It is represented in many musicals and artistic performances.
