Tap is an exciting form of dance in which dancers wear special shoes equipped with metal taps. Tap dancers use their feet like drums to create rhythmic patterns and timely beats. The term “tap dancing” is derived from the tapping sound produced when the small metal plates on the dancer’s shoes touch a hard floor or surface.
Tap dancing is a vigorous form of dance, requiring a great deal of physical fitness. It builds aerobic fitness as well as muscle control. Tap dancing teaches timing and rhythm and can be seen in such films as “Singing In The Rain” and “Happy Feet”.

Teaching many forms of dance to people of all ages and ability levels from tiny tots to adult classes. Our styles include Jazz, Ballet, Tap, Lyrical, Acro, Musical Theatre and Contemporary.
Tap Dance is characterised by using the sounds of tap shoes striking the floor as a form of percussion. The sound is made by shoes that have a metal “tap” on the heel and toe. Although it can be challenging, tap is a fun way to make one’s own music.
The dancer’s foot and shoe essentially act as a drum, and each part of the shoe makes a particular beat and sound. We train our dancers to be versatile and highly recommend tap classes.
Tap Lessons are offered by Upstaged Dance & Performance Studio. Classes start from 4 year old kinder age.
We teach both freestyle tap focusing on timing, light and shade, style and performance and for the technical elements we teach a more traditional style of tap.
This amazing dance class challenges the students rhythm and overall awareness.
