Course Details

Tap is a vigorous and upbeat dance style based on rhythm and sound. It owes its roots to Black America as a way to create music with the body and connect with deities in the ground. Tap requires a unique way of moving when compared to the Ballet-based styles (Jazz, Lyrical, Contemporary).

Ankle mobility, weight placement, and glute activation are key components. Tyneal approaches Tap from a fundamental movement approach with proper conditioning and biomechanical techniques, while weaving in the history and rhythm of the steps.
