Our adult tap classes are designed to be a fun and energetic 45 minutes of learning tap techniques and rhythms.  Because tap dance involves counting intricate rhythms it is excellent for stimulating and exercising the brain as well as the body. 

 

Tap is also amazing at enhancing other dance styles such as street and jazz, as it involves being able to accent any note in the bar of piece of music.  As well as learning the techniques and the steps, tapping at BLOOM will help you improve your physical and mental health. It’s a great work out and a fantastic way of meeting like-minded people. Being able to make a noise is also a great way of blowing away the day’s cobwebs! 

 

Our beginners class is aimed at those who have no current tap dance experience or maybe those that are returning to tap and would like a gentle 

refresher back in to it.  We’ll cover all of the basics and will add to these each week. 

  

Our intermediate class is suitable for those who have taken tap classes as a child or adult and already have the basics down. 

 

In both classes, we get the blood pumping with a cardio warm up with drills of lots of familiar steps.  We move on to some mini combinations, and of course we couldn’t forget our timesteps and a shim sham!  Each half term we work on a new dance which we build on each week.   

 

We really like to mix it up in terms of music and styles, we have danced to everything from Harry Styles to Anything Goes, Beyonce to 42nd Street!
