Why take a tap class? Why NOT? Anyone at any age can learn how to tap dance! It’s fun, challenging, and great exercise for your body and your brain.

Tap dancing is an enjoyable way to get your heart rate up and work your core. With proper weight placement you can improve balance, coordination and control all while having fun.

Tap dancing consists of learning and memorizing rhythm patterns. Repeating, reversing and counting the rhythm patterns are mental exercises that promote healthy brain activity and can help ward off disorders such as Alzheimer’s and dementia.

Tap dancing can be a uniquely satisfying physical and emotional release because of its ability to produce sound. Not only will you be listening to music in class you will be making music with your feet!

This class will start with a tap warmup and the most basic moves, progressing naturally to meet the needs of the students.

Note: Our classes offer need-based scholarships through our “Arts for All Education Fund” and include reduced tuition and tuition-free spots for all learners.
