The school, founded in 1957 by Miss Ann Roberts AO, is now in the hands of daughter, Jane and her husband André Reynaud.
The school evolves to reflect the changing world by offering the highest quality training in the most caring and fun filled environment for both the lover of dance and the aspiring professional.
The school is proud to say that many of its past students have pursued a career in the world of dance. To name a few, are Natalie Weir – Expressions Director and choreographer, Kurt Phelan – professional dancer, choreographer and actor, Tim Coleman – Singapore Ballet; Emmanuel Reynaud - Footnote Dance Company; and many of our former students are now professional teachers and examiners of dance.
Classes include rhythm and sound technique as students learn how to create musical sequences with their tap steps.
TJS Dance Academy prides itself on its versatility through providing a wide range of styles to all of our students. Students are encouraged to take part in our Tap classes taught by our incredibly talented, and experienced staff.
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.
We believe it is important for every student to take part in Tap classes if they do not learn a musical instrument. It emphasises the development and strengthening importance of rhythm and sound.
Tap dance was created from a fusion of European and West African cultures evolving through many eras to the tap that we know today with metal plates screwed to the soles of the shoes to create the iconic “tap” noise.
