Tap (Teen / Youth Performance)

Our Tap program develops rhythm, coordination, and musicality through percussive movement and expressive choreography. Dancers use their feet as instruments, learning to create intricate sounds and rhythms while building strength and precision.

What to Expect

Technique & Clarity — Emphasis on clean sounds, timing, and foot articulation through structured warm-ups and progressive exercises.
Rhythm & Musicality — Students explore phrasing, syncopation, and tempo variation to connect movement directly with music.
Style & Expression — Classes incorporate elements of both Broadway and rhythm tap, blending tradition with contemporary style.
Performance Readiness — Choreography focuses on ensemble timing, stage presence, and expressive storytelling through sound.
