Tap Dance

Tap Dance

Tap dance was developed in the United States during the nineteenth century and is popular nowadays in many parts of the world. The name comes from the tapping sound made when the small metal plates on the dancer's shoes touch a hard floor. This lively, rhythmic tapping makes the performer not just a dancer but also a percussive musician.

Our Dance Families Thoughts

  • I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to fully express what DC has meant for Emma, and our family.

    Thinking back to when she was just 3 years old, you were such a safe and nurturing presence for her. I always trusted you, your mom, and your grandmother to protect her and give her space to experience the joy and healing of dance.

    As she grew older, dance became a way for her to express emotions that words couldn’t capture. You challenged her, supported her, and helped shape her into the strong, determined, and mature young woman she is today. I truly cannot thank you enough.

    Dance is such an integral part of who she is, and she will carry a piece of DC with her to Ohio State next year. She is going to miss you so much!

    With gratitude, Kyra
