Tap

TAP.jpg

Rhythm and Broadway tap – We’ve got it all!!! For anyone who has been excited by the syncopated rhythms of a tap dancer’s feet, we have a class for you. From the earliest part of the century when tap stars topped vaudeville marquees and flappers filled the Broadway stage, to the MGM movie classics with Fred Astaire and Ginger Rodgers gliding across the screen, to Brenda Bufalino, Savion Glover and Jason Samuels Smith filling a stage today with their marvelous sounds. Tap dance is part of the American culture. We help keep this American art form ‘alive and well’ with classes for Beginners to  Advanced levels for children and adults. Our tap choreography has won countless national awards as well as Paula  Abdul’s “Company Dance” finals broadcast on national television. 

Your dancer will need these items for class:

  • Top: Dance t-shirt/tank, leotard, or dance sports bra tops

  • Bottom: Dance pants, shorts, leggings, or sweatpants

  • Hair: Must be off the face in a high ponytail

  • Shoes: Capezio black lace up tap shoes

BE PREPARED:

PERFORMANCES:

Our Main stage production is designed for older children and teens and is performed at a local Performing Arts Center within a school.  Center Stage shows are not dance recitals, they are Broadway in New Jersey! Not only does our end of the year show demonstrate our students’ growth, it also provides each and every one of them the experience of professional theatre. At Center Stage we think that our shows are in a class by themselves; but don’t take our word for it. Chris Scherer, reviewing our show in the Home News, said that our “Dance program at (the) State Theatre is out of this world” and that Center Stage “may have changed the stodgy old dance recital program forever.” Come on down and see for yourself. We guarantee you will catch the Center Stage Fever!
