Better balance, improved coordination, stronger musicality– these are just a few benefits a tap class had to offer… not to mention it’s super fun! In Tap 1, students will learn the foundational basics of the genre through various exercises and drills, and apply them to performing fun up-beat combinations. Dancers will work to expand and hone their skills, in Tap 2, and explore more challenging rhythms and tricks. Let’s face it, everyone loves watching tap numbers.
