Greetings dancers!
In our efforts to provide a complete dance package, tonight’s TECHnique class will be an Introduction into tap.
“Tap dance was developed in the United States during the nineteenth century, and is popular nowadays in many parts of the world. The name comes from the tapping sound made when the small metal plates on the dancer’s shoes touch a hard surface. This lively, rhythmic tapping makes the performer not just a dancer, but also a percussive musician (and thus, for example, the American composer Morton Gould was able to compose a concerto for tap dancer and orchestra).” From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In practicing tap, you can develop a new appreciate to hearing the different beats in the song, which is just a good thing all around. So if you have nothing to do, why not try and give it a shot. It’s free and fun! See you there!
