A little Tap Shoe 101…

Rhythm Tap is typically danced in the flat shoe as it utilizes both the toe and heel taps equally. The Broadway style is done in the heel shoe as most of the work is done on the balls of your feet. The heel shoe will not allow the maximum amount of sound from your shoe for the style of tap we will be doing in this class. In addition, it’s a very difficult shoe to initially learn in, usually the style of shoe you work up to.

Tap Shoe Recommendations:

A flat, Oxford style shoe with Tele Tone Taps are ideal however, not required. If there are any additional questions please email Reina.
