Tap

This is a high energy form of dance. Rhythm and technique are developed leaving dancers with the ability to let their feet create music. Childrens' programs use the Al Gilbert tap program as a guide for skill development.

We rent tap shoes for beginners and students just wanting
to give tap a try!
