Tap

IMPERIAL SOCIETY OF TEACHERS OF DANCING

Tap has evolved as an American dance form, popularised throughout the world, with debate about its origins coming from African & Irish dance.  The dancer uses their feet to strike the floor, beating out different rhythms, with dancers wearing tap shoes which have small metal plates on the toe and heel to give the distinctive sound. Tap dance is a theatrical art form often seen on stage in musicals. The ever evolving ISTD Tap syllabus has prepared many a dancer for life on the stage/professional careers.
