This beginner friendly class will be great for anyone who has always wanted to learn the basics of tap dance. We will be covering all of the beginning steps and sounds and move into some short combinations to music throughout the four weeks. Bring your taps, a water bottle, and be ready to hoof! The spring musical, Newsies, has a lot of dance including a tap number, so we encourage anyone who would like to sharpen their skills in preparation for that to come out for this class.
