Explore the rhythmic world of tap dance in our beginner-level class, suitable for 9th graders to adults. Led by certified movement analyst — and our newest instructor — Emily Oleson, this course will get you in touch with your own movement voice — through tap! With an emphasis on the social and communicative nature of tap dance, you’ll learn to improvise in a community setting and embrace your musicality, all while focusing on body alignment and efficient movement. We’ll also honor tap history as a social dance of African American origin and its ever-changing performance aspects.
Instructor: Emily Oleson
Fridays from 5:30-6:30 p.m.
Winter Term: January 16-February 27
Meets at 211 N Lewis St, Staunton VA in the studio classroom
Tap shoes: If you already have tap shoes, bring them! If you don’t have tap shoes, any thin-soled sneakers, such as Converse or Keds will work while we find a proper-fitting shoe for you. We will have shoes available to rent or purchase. A great fit is so important — please let us help you!
Please wear comfortable, form-fitting movement clothes. No jewelry. Bring a water bottle!
You’ll be billed $70 every month for two months. The timing of your billing is based on when you make your first purchase. You can view our cancellation and refund policy here.
