About this class
Tap Dance at The Village School of Dance
Tap dancing was born of the fusion of cultures, influenced by African rhythms, Irish stepping and English clogging. The tap dancer wears shoes fitted with heel and toe taps and sounds out audible beats by rhythmically striking the floor.
Tap is so much fun for our students, giving them the chance to make noise with their feet and learn to become a musician and a dancer at the same time!

“I can't praise The Village School of Dance highly enough. My daughter has been attending classes for 8 years and absolutely loves them. She's reached high standards in ballet, tap and modern, has pointe shoes and can dance in them and has had excellent results in ISTD and RAD exams whilst still having fun. Now at the top end of the school and the end of the graded syllabi we look back at her time in the school and say thank you to Katherine and all the other teachers - it's been special!”
