About This Class
Tap 1 (Ages 6 to 8)
Our Tap 1 class introduces dancers ages 6 to 8 to the exciting world of rhythm and sound. Through fun, upbeat music and engaging combinations, dancers learn the fundamentals of tap while developing timing, coordination, balance, musicality, and footwork. Students are introduced to foundational tap vocabulary and techniques as they begin creating rhythms with their feet in a positive and encouraging environment.
Throughout the season, dancers strengthen their listening skills, memory, concentration, and confidence while learning to match movement with music. Tap is a wonderful way to improve coordination and rhythm, skills that benefit dancers in many other styles as well. As students grow, they also develop stage presence, teamwork, and a sense of accomplishment with each new skill they master.
Tap 1 is a great class for children who enjoy music, movement, and making rhythm come to life. Dancers in this class have the exciting opportunity to perform in both our Winter Showcase and our End of Season Recital, giving them the chance to showcase their progress and create lasting memories on stage.
