About the class

Dancers will learn foundational steps such as shuffles, flaps, and cramp rolls, building towards simple combinations and routines. Through engaging exercises and dynamic music, students will develop timing, musicality, and precision.
Perfect for beginners or those with some experience, this class encourages creativity and self-expression while building essential dance skills. Step into the world of tap and let the rhythm move you!
