Introduction

Welcome to the rhythmic world of Tap Dance at Studio C! Our tap dance lessons offer a delightful and engaging experience that goes beyond just learning dance steps. Get ready to exercise your mind, strengthen your body, and have a blast with the art of tap dancing!

In our tap dance lessons, dancers will discover the joy of dancing in rhythm and the exciting challenge of memorizing intricate dance steps. This unique form of dance not only provides a platform for self-expression but also exercises the mind, enhancing mental focus and improving memory. Your child’s cognitive abilities will flourish as they navigate the intricate rhythms and patterns of tap dance.

Tap dance is not only a mental exercise but also a fantastic way to strengthen the body. As your child progresses through tap dance lessons, they will notice an improvement in their core muscles, leading to better posture. By maintaining their weight over their feet and transitioning fluidly from one foot to the other, your child will develop a strong sense of balance and coordination.

Moreover, tap dance is a complete full-body workout. From the muscles in their feet to those in their neck, your child will experience overall muscle strengthening. Not only will their muscles become stronger, but their cardiovascular endurance will also improve. Tap dance lessons provide an excellent opportunity for your child to stay active, strengthen their body, and improve their overall physical fitness.

Beyond the physical benefits, tap dance lessons are incredibly fun! We believe that the best way to exercise is by enjoying every moment of it. Your child will delight in the rhythmic sounds of their taps and the thrill of mastering new steps. Furthermore, tap dance lessons foster social interactions as your child joins a class of their peers, creating a supportive and dynamic learning environment.

Designed to go beyond just learning steps, our two levels of tap classes, Beginning Tap and Tap 1, offer a dynamic experience that exercises the mind, strengthens the body, and brings endless fun to dancers of all ages.

Join us in our Tap Dance lessons and witness incredible growth and enjoyment as your child discovers the world of rhythm and movement. Enroll today and become part of a vibrant community where tap dancing ignites a passion for dance, enhances mental acuity, strengthens the body, and fosters social connections. Get ready to tap into a world of fun and fulfillment!

Dance FAQ: Your Essential Guide to Frequently Asked Questions!

Why should I learn to dance?

We know that the study of dance can give unlimited amounts of poise, grace, beauty, and strength, which are requisites to a healthy and self-assured attitude at any stage of life.

Our aim is to give our students the best dance education possible through our professional instruction and personal attention. From our tiniest 1 & 2-year-old dancers to our high school big personalities and distinguished adults, we strive to offer more than just a “dance class” experience here at Studio C.

We pride ourselves in our commitment to teaching strong work ethic, character, personal confidence, good hygiene and nutrition, physical strength, and respect all while having fun!

When do classes begin and how long is each class?

Our regular season is from September 11, 2023 - JUNE 1, 2024. We offer small summer sessions and camps each year as well. Dance lessons are held once a week. Most classes are 45-60 minutes in length (unless otherwise stated).

Is there an age limit or range?

We have classes for children starting as young as 6 months old, with a caregiver, in our “Dance With Me” program. At age 2, children can begin taking classes independently. We offer classes in many styles for children and adults.

What should I wear for class?

Our dress code can be found on our policies page as well as in the description for each class when you are registering for class(es).

What team opportunities do you have at Studio C?

Studio C is proud to offer performance and competition opportunities to our top dancers in jazz and hip hop. Students are selected to participate at the end of each season for the following year. See our Performance Teams Page for more information.

What types of dance do you offer?

Do you accept people with disabilities?

We strive to make accommodations for all individuals who desire to dance. Please Contact the studio to discuss how we can help you with your special needs.

When is the recital?

Recital Dates are subject to change based on auditorium availability. Any changes will be communicated promptly. The Spring Recital date is tentatively set for the 1st Saturday in June. See our Recital Page for more up-to-date information.

What is your attendance policy?

Students are expected to attend classes for which they are registered. If a student misses 4 consecutive classes without making formal arrangements with studio instructors and/or administration, his/her space will be forfeited in the class for the next month. Students with excessive absences will not be permitted to perform in our annual recital.

See our Policies Page for more information.

Are parents allowed to stay in class to watch?

“WATCH DAYS” will be the first full week in November and April. This is the lesson parents and visitors are welcome to view in class. Remember, this is your day to see your child’s progress.

Please do not disturb the class by visiting amongst yourselves. Turn the ringer on the phone down. Please keep your little ones seated and quiet. In other lessons, parents are asked to walk their child inside the building and then wait in the waiting room, run a quick errand, or treat themselves to a walk around the block! This enables the dance instructors to keep the attention of the students, as well as helps those who may be a little reluctant to feel more at ease.
