Course Details

Tap is an exciting style of dance with a rich history dating back over a century that incorporates shoes equipped with metal “taps” to create percussive sounds along with rhythmic footwork.

Tap dance has the transformative power to make the body a dynamic sound machine! Each week when your child puts their tap shoes on they will feel a lively beat bubbling up inside of them.

As tap dancers, they will live, breathe, feel, and experience the playfulness, creativity, and wonder that comes from making music. Students will develop a deep understanding of phrasing and musical form, improve rhythm and co-ordination, and have a tremendously Loud amount of fun!

Classes follow a syllabus of studies that is routinely updated to ensure it is at the forefront of dance education.

Tap

Boys often enjoy the intricacies & challenges of the footwork. While upper body & arm lines are important in Tap, they are freer than its counterpart, Classical Ballet. This less structured upper body placement with the single focus of footwork skills, also appeal to male students.
