Hi Everyone,
I am super excited to announce my new training and CPD for tap dance teachers called
The Tap Mentor!
This is a two hour online Zoom Session where I shall share my tips and tricks for teaching tap dance effectively!
And after 35 years specialising in teaching tap, I certainly have a lot to share!
This is suitable for all tap dance teachers, whether you are teaching a syllabus programme of your choice, or creating your own open free tap classes!
The skills and methodologies I have to share cover all styles of tap and are designed to increase your joy of teaching tap and to also inspire passion in your staff and students!
This Zoom is for tap teachers, studio principals and student tap teachers, who would like to expand their teaching tool kit, specifically for teaching tap.
In this two hour training I will discuss a range of topics including, but not limited to:
1. The importance of repetition, hearing students tap individually and how to keep class fun.
2. Strategies for keeping the class under control and moving fluidly.
3. How to teach technique, cross phrasing, even rhythms, understanding time versus rhythm, canon, style, rhythmic and visual phrasing and the coherence required.
4. How to inspire creativity and choreographic ability in your students.
5. Looking outward to the professional world of tap to keep your tapping current.
6. Clever tricks to improve your choreography for groups and routines utilising different standards in your classes.
7. Working with different abilities in the same classes when you have smaller class sizes.
8. How to inspire and encourage more students to study tap.
9. Teaching techniques used to handle different age groups.
10. The importance of understanding how to teach tap and the specific skills required. [ body, rhythmic, time, vocal stylings, holding tempo etc]
11. Using props to enhance your tap experience.
12. Tap as an entry level genre for your dance school.
13. Tips and tricks for bringing some of your jazz students into the mix to create larger more dynamic performance pieces.
14. Adding tap to your performance repertoire – competitions / festivals / fairs / events!
Should time allow, I shall also take questions from the participants.
