Tap Dance is an energetic and joyful dance style that anyone can learn—no previous dance experience required. This class offers a fun way to improve cardiovascular fitness while building strength, flexibility, coordination, and balance. Tap dancing also boosts brain power, challenging students to develop rhythm, timing, and both mental and muscle memory as they learn and connect steps. The result is a lively workout that engages the body and mind—and delivers plenty of smiles along the way. Wear comfortable clothing that allows for easy movement and tap shoes. Come make some noise and have fun!
