Use your shoes like a drum, and make some noise!
Tap dancing is a great exercise for the body and mind, and it helps to integrate rhythmic patterns from head to toe. This technical dance style develops musicality, rhythm, and coordination.
Traditional style tap is sometimes referred to as Broadway style tap and relies on steps and combinations based on a common vocabulary among tappers. Emphasis is placed equally on how the dance appears to an audience and how it sounds.
Rhythm Tap is a modern style of tap that places emphasis on the tone and musicality of the dance. Steps may be more flat-footed and are uniquely created for each choreography.
