Tap

Tap for Ages 5-6

Tap for Ages 5-6 is a class for dancers ages 5 and up who have never studied tap before. The basic tap vocabulary, along with rhythm and musicality, will be taught. The class begins with a warm up, followed by across the floor combinations, and choreography.

Beginning/Intermediate

Beginning/Intermediate tap class begins with exercises in the center to warm up the feet, ankles, legs—the entire body!  Tap dance isn't just about what your feet are doing!  Basic steps increase in complexity on a weekly basis, working toward developing rhythm, musicality, dexterity and clarity of sound.  Students also work on proper upper body placement and coordinating head and arm movements with the tap steps.  Combinations across the floor introduce traveling tap steps and turns, which are followed by a routine in the center that brings together all the elements of the class.  Class routines will progress over the course of several weeks to allow the students to work on performance quality, and to have FUN!

Intermediate/Advanced
Details coming soon!
