Philly Dance Fitness – Tap with Rachel

Class begins with fast-paced, continuous movements to loosen up the legs. Expect lots of hops, shuffles, stomps, runs, flaps and more. If you don’t know these terms, don’t stress — all you have to do is follow along. The steps are basic enough for most beginners to pick up, yet fast enough to challenge those with tap experience. Expect an upbeat, exhilarating aerobic workout, with the additional benefits of toned leg muscles, improved balance and tightened glutes.

Time to get dancing! Utilize your tap skills to learn rhythmic phrases and practice them with many different styles of music. Participants should have at least 6-12 months of prior experience and feel comfortable with movements such as flaps, shuffles, brushes, digs and time steps.
