I took dance in college (jazz, tap, ballet, modern, hip hop, etc) but that was 9 years ago. These videos have been great reminders! It all just comes flooding back to me!!! Hurray for muscle memory!!! Lol
this is an incredible refresher… took a tap class a while ago, and now I’ve gotta perform onstage for a theatre thing! It’s all coming back like magic! You’re a miracle at teaching
THANK YOU.......... I GOT IT Right off! I started tap at 3 yrs old, and even taught while in High School at Community Youth Center and the village paid me. Then after marrying only danced at home, as my husband is not fond of me doing it. Now I am 68 yrs old and have arthritis of hips, knees and thighs and spine .. etc etc. BUT love dancing but when hurting I fall back and stop. Going to Physical therapy now, and the therapist feels I need to teach dancing or at least take dancing lessons . But again ,my husband is not happy. SO.... Will watch to... "brush up"... once more.... and then will do this on my own I guess? It would be FUN to do it with others of my age at least, but guess I do what I can. LOVE DANCING.. * just HURT* DRIVES ME CRAZY. MY BROTHER 3 YRS YOUNGER than me, NOW IS THE ONE GOING OUT DANCING WITH HIS WIFE! I NEVER COULD TEACH HIM, BUT AFTER LEARNING 'LINE DANCING ' HE TOOK OFF QUICKLY! THANK YOU for TEACHING. GOOD FOR MANY OF US! GETS PEOPLE INTERESTED IN TAP DANCING AGAIN. I USED TO DO TAP, JAZZ BALLET AND BATON. NEVER ACROBATS AS MY PARENTS THOUGHT i WOULD " BREAK MY BONES, AS I WAS SO THIN" ( so cute, they were)
*shouldn't have read the comments* Man... so many people are so discouraging it's awful. So WHAT if you learned this when you were 8? So what if you started tap at 2 and you are the best in your studio now? People need to understand that EVERYONE learns at different times in their life. You don't have to be a child to start learning tap. You can start whenever you feel like it. This was a clear video and a nice segue, if you like, for people who are beginners moving into intermediate. She's made this video accessible for all ages. People learn at different speeds, by showing steps like these which may be on the simpler side of intermediate, it's a lot less daunting for someone coming into this level, or who wants to brush up on something they did years ago. I don't think people should be bragging about how amazing they are and how they can go 5 times faster or whatever. And I'm aware that lots of these comments are from years ago and were by children, but still, manners cost nothing, so I just thought I'd throw my two pence in. *THAT BEING SAID* I really enjoyed this and the only thing I wish is that it was mirrored as I'm sure I'm not the only one who benefits from mirroring when trying to learn a routine. It just meant it took me a little longer to get my bearings but that's on me really. Good job, I'll definitely check out more!
you know, would you all stop writing how easy this is? and how you've all been tap dancing for 1000000 years and how this is the easiest thing you have ever seen. well, for a lot of people, including myself, this is pooping impossible.
nah. not pooping impossible. flipping impposible. (i was going through a hard time when i wrote that comment...) BUT THIS VIDEO SUX! MYBE SLOW DOWN? then maybe I won't have to cry myself to sleep every night. ThX! ;)
yeah... I've kind of decided not to learn tap dancing until i'm like... 20. because then I might actually be able to move out and then I'll be able to practice without disturbing all the neighbors and being laughed at by my family.
People aren't trying to be stuck up, there is a system of grading. Shuffles, ball changes, tap steps etc are learned in grade 1 (about age 8, I learned at 12 (doesn't matter how old really)). Intermediate deals with steps like 4 beat riffs, 3&4 beat wing changes, divided wings etc.
I\'m not sure but ,if anyone else wants to learn about how to belly dance video try Cypouris Belly Dancer Coach(do a google search ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend got cool success with it.
This is barley intermediate level I would said advanced beginner level maybe. Scuffle steps you learn at a very early level in tap. Peridittles (I think that’s how u spell it) have many combos and usually go faster than what she shows. If you show how to do wings that would be more of an intermediate/ intermediate 2 step. I have been doing tap since I was 2. I’m 14 now so I know a thing or 2 I suppose. I’m not acting “full of myself” or like I feel I’m better than what is shown. People learn at different levels so obviously this combo will be harder for some people and easier for others, it’s just a matter of skill.
9 years ago, but it's easier to follow an instructor when they're facing the same direction as the teacher. It's hard to basically do opposite what you're seeing.
Miss M Jade honey, go to hell. This is for people who are just going into tap. If you came into tap at the age of 7, maybe you were at the intermediate stage at the age of 8. You’ve got to start thinking about people that aren’t yourself

New to dancing altogether, I'm only now learning Tap and have been for 2 weeks. I'm 37. You're never too old.
Enjoy! I did two years of tap when I was 13/14. I’m 38, and have pulled out my tapshoes!
This is a wonderful combination. Thank you for your clear demonstration.

Awesome thx! This is totally my level and it took me a while to get the correct speed but now I can do it perfectly. 👍
Thank you for the clear direction! newish to tap and loving every minute of it!
I think these were the videos, from which Rory was following in Gilmore Girls AYITL. It's what has inspired me to learn Tap.
You r brilliant that has totally helped me alot and I love tap dancingxx don't listen to those hatersxxx
LOVE it sounds so cool! Thank you for your videos! Great job!
Sorely temple has her own tap step?! She's one reason I wanna tap... Love her
I like your pace.
you know, would you all stop writing how easy this is? and how you've all been tap dancing for 1000000 years and how this is the easiest thing you have ever seen.

ThX! ;)
Tess Loucka try the beginner combo and work your way up :)
I DID!!!!!!
I reccomend staying at the begginer combo until you pretty much perfect it then go to intermediate :)
yeah... I've kind of decided not to learn tap dancing until i'm like... 20. because then I might actually be able to move out and then I'll be able to practice without disturbing all the neighbors and being laughed at by my family.
Why am I watching this? I've been tapping for 5 years!
Thank you very much fore your clear teaching. It really works.
Every studio/ convention calls them different things!! LOL
Is there a link to the intermediate section showing the steps?

exactly this is my third year of tap and i can do that without thinking!
We call Shirley Temples Broadways!!! LOL Funny to see how names vary!
Lyrafurret88 I thought they were called Manhattans
Melodie Ferrin we call them weight changes
Been tapping for 10 years and I've never heard of a scuffle lol
Hannah Evans I’ve heard of a shuffle, and I think I’ve heard of a scuff, but not a scuffle
When you scuff its like a brush with the heel instead of the toe.
My thoughts exactly!
LISTEN ALL OF YOU OMG, U LEARNED THIS WHEN U WERE 4,5 YEARS OLD? OH YEAH THATS AMATEUR, I LEARNED THIS ROUTINE WHEN I WAS 2 MONTHS OLD
I\'m not sure but ,if anyone else wants to learn about how to belly dance video try Cypouris Belly Dancer Coach(do a google search ) ? Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend got cool success with it.
i’m not sure if you could even walk when your two months old you hairy mango but ok
Your a show off mate
Libby jones I'm in year 4 and I learned this steps in one video

YASSD
To anyone that taps:
I’m overweight and is it safe to do tap cus I’m overweight? Cus I rly wanna join but I’m not sure if I’m right for it any advice?
Yes! All shapes are fine! I have many large people in my class and they are amazing tap dancers!
I need to get back to tap. I have the shoes..
I'm teaching myself tap until i can sign up! you do a great job! the only thing is i cant get the sheerly temple XD
no one:
the comment section: EASYYYYY BAHAHA IM TEN AND I CAN TAP SOOOO MUCH FASTER
where's the video to learn the steps before the combination?
That was cool
I wish my feet could fly like that!!
9 years ago, but it's easier to follow an instructor when they're facing the same direction as the teacher. It's hard to basically do opposite what you're seeing.
could anyone tell me any good songs to do this combo to?
Easy I'm grade 3 nearly 4 and we did that in pre primary
Thank you
Super! Thankyou. :-)
0:57 1:18 1:35
now this my level
Great!
Fantastic! :-)
cant really hear the difference between shuffle and scuffle on audio!! why not just call it 'heel' for clarity?
This is beginner
I learned this when I was 10
This is more beginning then advanced
2:05

gostei!
I know how to do this. im a tap dancer.
Thats not a paradiddle, *Screeches in tap*
Shirley Temple?
At my studio the combination you just did is like a begginer. But oh well
would you mind going a little slower.
I’m i the only 10 year old :(
Toooooooo fast!!!
You call this idermediate?!? I learned this when i was 8
Same here and I'm ten
Miss M Jade yea, like how many years ago? It depends on your level. DUH
Miss M Jade honey, go to hell. This is for people who are just going into tap. If you came into tap at the age of 7, maybe you were at the intermediate stage at the age of 8. You’ve got to start thinking about people that aren’t yourself
Cookie Unicorn u go to hell
This is too easy
Dance Docter have you ever thought that this is a combination for eight year olds?
she never confirms what intermediate actually is
I dont even tap dance and i could do those moves lol
b.s.
I am 11 and have been dancing for 8 years and I would think those are beginner steps, not intermediate
I am 13 and have been tap dancing 2.5 years. I'm already the best tap dancer in my studio. Stop bragging
Annie Renner you literally just bragged yourself you hypocrite
No offence but I teach 4 year olds this
+Katy Lynch do you have a tapdance channel?
+Mary Hunter-Dogans no but I do teach and learn dance this was a very helpful vid for beginners though 😊
:)
WOW! 4 year olds!!!
Katy Lynch I can't do a drawback without losing balance! -.- it depends on your level.
I have been tap dancing for 5 years and i can go 5 times faster than that lol. Good that she is showing combinations though.
Boring
really it is
