The Broadway theater continues to reinforce the popularity of Tap with each new season. From this quintessential American dance form comes the "time step," an important - and fun - part of every dancer's repertory. Tap may be studied at the Academy at all levels of ability, on its own, or as a supplement to the pursuit of other disciplines. Students of the classical tradition will find challenge in the mastery of Tap's syncopated rhythms and stylized movements.
