Tap dancing is a famous and unique style of dance, where dancing becomes percussion! Widely associated with musical theatre and cabaret, Tap is a fun and energetic style of dance with both traditional and more modern approaches. This class will help you to develop your co-ordination and improve your cardio fitness, as well as helping to develop and improve your sense of rhythm and timing. Channel your inner Ginger Rogers or Fred Astaire and come and join us as we have fun making music with our feet.
