ABOUT NATALIE AND THE TAP SHE TEACHES
Learn to dance with Natalie. Natalie trained at Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts in acting and musical theatre, and beforehand trained in the American Association of Dance syllabus, at Tamworth Academy. She has also learned with various teachers, attending classes at Danceworks, Dance Attic, The Place (contemporary), Reside Dance (contemporary), Pineapple Studios and Mark Morris (Tap). She has a unique blend of experience as a professional dancer, actor, singer and linguist and has trained in classes taught by numerous different associations, so her knowledge is broad of both tap moves and steps, and their various names!
The American Association tap techniques were brought over to the UK by the likes of Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly. There is a focus on theory which enables you to be a better dancer and understand the reasons behind some of the preparations and barre work we do as dancers.
Our teacher Natalie will share with you her energy and love of tap-dance! Come along to a session to try it out. No need to purchase tap shoes to begin with.
We also initiated classes at Shrewsury House Community Centre in South East London. These are now run by someone else, and are great fun! More info here: https://www.shrewsburyhouse.org
