About the Classes
Our classes are held on Wednesday evenings year-round, except for short breaks in June, August and December. There is a Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer session, and sometimes special seasonal classes added.
Classes are held at Goulding Community Centre, in a spacious room with wood floors and barres. Average class sizes are 12-15 students, usually less in the Beginners level. Students come from all over the GTA, from the Danforth to North York, and north to Aurora.
We do not have a year-end recital (or any of that stress and expense). Instead, we have appeared at National Tap Dance Day celebrations at Nathan Phillips Square for 12 years – but participation is optional. At certain times of year, when dances are prepared, we have also performed at charity functions. In December we have an open class and party when friends and relatives are invited to join in or just watch (although they are welcome anytime).
Next Sessions:
SPRING SESSION:
March 31 - June 16
Beginners Wednesday 6:30-7:30
The Beginners class will 'start from scratch' for new and returning students, with basic steps and technique, and build on a routine each week.
Intermediate Wednesday 7:30-8:30
The class will integrate students recently moved up from beginners with some comfortable and some challenging combinations and tempos. We will experiment wth a few pieces of music incorporating style and presentation, and of course, have fun. We will also prepare a dance for National Tap Dance Day '10!
