Fall 2022 Masterclass #1 "Rhythm, Tap and Improvisation"

Rhythm, Tap and Improvisation

Fall 2022 Masterclass #1

This is a high-energy rhythmic tap class focusing on articulating sound and movement in the feet and the body. This class will explore sliding, hoofing, turning, jumping, improvisation games, and jams, using a call-and-response method to gain a wide range of the culture and genre of tap dancing. Expect to sweat, but mostly have fun! (Don't forget your Tap shoes!)
