Tap 2: Part A Week 2 Sun, Jan 25 1:30 pm Sugar Swing 22.50 After having completed level 1 and are feeling really confident with that material, you can consider our Tap 2 classes! Also great for those who have a few years of dance experience and want to brush up on their skills. This class is definitely challenging but you will gain so much by being here. There is a focus on technique variations on rhythm turns, along with variations on fundamentals of cramp rolls and paradiddles. You will also learn popular timesteps and combinations. Our instructor will bring teachings from historical repertoire to the students.
Make Up Class : If you need to miss a class, tell our staff - if similar is available, you can come to another lesson on a different day!
Tap Shoes : Tap Shoes are NOT required! Many students decide to get tap shoes eventually, but when you are first starting out, you can make-do with any shoe. Shoes that don't stick and have a harder sole made of leather or hard rubber usually work quite well. When you are ready for tap shoes, you can checkout a variety of used and new tap shoes at Onstage, which is located right behind Sugar Swing Ballroom
Tap Shoe Maintenance : PLEASE maintain your tap shoes and ensure there are no loose screws or sharp edges, to ensure our floor finish stays strong. If you are unsure, chat with our instructors at class!
Difficulty Warning : Later parts (Part B, C, or D) are not recommended for complete newcomers to the dance. However, if you cannot wait, you are welcome to pop into these parts. Perhaps take 2-3 private lessons (contact our office). Just know that they move at a faster pace!
Tap 1: Part A Week 2 Sun, Jan 25 2:35 pm Sugar Swing 22.00 Everyone starts here from scratch, covering the fundamentals from the ground-up. Learn the iconic shim sham, along with the basic components of shuffle, flap, stomps, stamps, and more.

Swing 1, Rotating: Lindy Hop Week 2 Sun, Jan 25 3:45 pm Sugar Swing 28.00 These steps come out of a New York night club! From the 1930s, that is. Lindy Hop is danced to fun, rhythmic jazz music, and is a partnered dance. It was first pioneered by predominantly Black Americans, has since spread globally across the world.
