Gallery Tap-
The enjoyment of tap comes from being able to “talk with your feet” – creating a huge variety of percussive sounds on the floor in various rhythmic combinations, in much the same way as a drummer does. With her Masters in Music, Karley Geneva teaches the dancer musicality, rhythm, and audience appeal. Most of the steps are performed on the balls of the feet using relaxed knees and ankles. The aim is to make clean and clear beats and be able to vary the tone of the sound that is produced. Karley will make you a musician with your feet and develope your joy of movement and expression.
