Popular around the world, tap dance is a theatrical art form often seen on stage in musicals. Tap evolved as an American dance form, influenced by African dance, Irish dance and/or clog dancing. At NSPA, our tap classes work towards the NZAMD syllabus, and students are invited to sit exams at their teacher’s discretion. As with the other dance styles, our tap students perform at the end-of-year production.
We offer a wide range of dance, theatre and music classes for students from 3 years of age right up to advanced and adult levels. Be taught and inspired by some of Auckland's best teachers.
The American Tap consists of barre work, centre work, and set or teachers’ own choreographed dances.

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 a type of dance characterised by using the sounds of tap shoes striking the floor as a form of percussion.
