Soft Shoe "Tap" Dancing


Adult Education / Be Active -
Adult Fall 2025

Channel your inner Nicholas Brothers (though no dancing on stairs or pianos in this class). We will cover the basics of tap dancing and add on some more intermediate steps: flap, flap ball change, shuffle, shuffle ball change, back essence, riff walk, draw back and basic time step. Don't worry if this is like Greek to you. We can't wear tap shoes on the gym floor so we will be dancing tap moves wearing suede or leather soled shoes. (Without the loud sounds this is often called “soft shoe.”) Any comfortable shoe without a rubber sole will likely do.
