TAP
Tap is a type of dance that focuses on rhythm and sound. Dancers wear special shoes with metal plates on the bottom that create a tapping sound when they hit the floor. Tap dance can be performed to a wide range of music, including jazz, swing, and pop. It is often characterized by its use of syncopated rhythms and improvisation. Tap classes typically include warm-up exercises, drills to improve technique, and choreographed routines.
