DurationTap is a form of dance characterized by using the sounds of tap shoes striking the floor as a form of percussion. It’s a strong rhythmical dance form that draws on music from many traditions. Tap dance puts an emphasis on the mastery of using the feet as a percussive instrument.
Films and stage show such as ’42nd Street’ and ‘Singing in the Rain’ bring the old-style tap to a new generation. New shows such as ‘Tap Dogs’ and ‘Stomp’ have updated this style making it a very popular class to take!
