Tap

Tap at Niche is about rhythm, musicality, technique and making music with your feet.

Our dancers develop strong technical foundations while learning to understand rhythm, timing, weight transfer, clarity of sound and increasingly complex footwork. As their training progresses, we build speed, control, dynamics and performance quality, encouraging dancers to become confident and versatile tappers.

Tap is offered across our Niche programs, with dancers placed according to their experience and stage of development rather than simply their age. This allows students to work at a level that challenges them while continuing to strengthen the foundations underneath their training.

Classes explore different styles and qualities of tap, giving dancers the opportunity to develop both their technical vocabulary and their own sense of musicality and performance.

Tap can form part of a broader dance training program, or it can simply be the style a dancer loves most. Both have a place at Niche.

 

Rhythm. Technique. Musicality. And a whole lot of noise.
