Tap is one of our four new styles this year and we’re all very excited about it!
I’m going to be teaching tap this year as well as being Vice President of the club so
I’m sure you’ll see me around at some point! Before coming to Essex I took classes in modern
and tap for 10 years, but as tap is a new class to E Essex Blades Dance Club I plan to teach
my class in a way that is suitable for all levels of experience. As we only have one class a
fortnight I will mostly be teaching the routines for the annual show but there will also be some
time to work on technique and getting the right sounds in. The routines I am going to teach will
have something for everyone, tap is great for this because you can have two rhythms going on at
the same time and even if they are both really simple it still sounds really cool! I’d really
like to see some beginners in my classes because I think tap is such an impressive style of dance
and to be able to learn and perform a routine on stage with no previous tap experience is an
awesome achievement! If you would like to know anymore about tap or my class please do not
hesitate to email me segosb@essex.ac.uk I hope to see you all at the FREE ‘come and try’
sessions at the beginning of term!
