Tap classes
Like jazz dance, tap is an American art that has its roots in African slave dances. They mixed traditional dances
with jigs and clog dances. So was born a new tapping, swinging style of dance, which is today performed throughout the
world.
You need to move quickly and rhythmically to be able to tap dance. Using your wholoe body, while your feet beat
out the rhythms with the toe and heel taps fitted to your shoes.

Modern Jazz dance
Modern jazz dance is lively and fun and full of rhythm. This class is for dancers who have basic ballet skills
and are looking for an artistic challenge. Students learn to express their emotions through movement.
You will need to be able to isolate parts of the body as well as keep a rhythm. This style of dancing is
a North American tradition that developed from a mixture of African and European dances. Today it is used extensively
in musicals and is often referred to as 'Show' or 'Commercial' dancing.
