There are many reasons to take a Tap dance class as an adult! Here are three of the most important: 

• Tap dance is a great workout. Learn a few basic patterns and you are off to a great cardio workout. Tap dance gets the heart rate up in a way that’s way more enjoyable than a jog around the block. It tones the major muscle groups in the legs and core and is a super fun way to stay in shape.

• Tap dance improves balance. Knowing where the body’s weight should be and when to shift the weight from one foot to the other is essential for proper tap technique. One of the first things you should learn in any tap class is proper weight placement over the balls of the feet with soft knees and an engaged core. Training the muscle memory in this way improves balance, coordination and control. And the benefits of a strong core are numerous, including less back pain and risk of falling.

• Tap dance makes you smarter. Tap dancing consists of learning rhythm patterns. Learning and memorizing patterns is a great workout for your brain. And it’s all math. Repeating, reversing and counting the rhythm patterns reinforces math concepts that younger students are learning in school. And for the adults and seniors… we all know that mental exercise promotes healthy brain activity and can help ward off disorders such as Alzheimer’s and dementia. So get tapping!

Register below and let’s get you exercising your body and your brain, while also having a great time with new friends!
