Have you always wanted to tap dance? In this Adult Tap Workshop, students will work on the fundamentals of tap dance in the feet and in the body. Each week, students will build on the skills learned the previous week as we broaden our step vocabulary. Students will also learn about major figures and influences in tap dance history. Students will hone their tap skills with an emphasis on musicality, technique, and playfulness as they learn a dance to showcase at the end of the course. The Adult Tap Workshop is a great opportunity for beginners and returning tap dancers alike. Sept. 3- Oct. 29, Tuesdays, 10-11:30 am. $160 for 8 sessions.
