2016-17 Academic Catalog

An introduction to the basics steps and motions of tap dance. The focus will be on building muscle memory in the ankles and feet from repetition of basic steps. The class will involve learning three dances: one dance choreographed by instructors for the end of first five weeks, another instructor choreographed dance for the end of the second five weeks, and choreographing one dance as small groups (four to eight people with instructor assistance) for the end of tenth week. Tap shoes are prohibited because they ruin the floors; socks or gym shoes are appropriate.
