8-4-10 Intermediate Rhythm Tap with Kristin Sorci. This class will be a short Tap routine that anyone can learn! It will consist of stringing together basic moves such as flaps, shuffles, and riffs, to create our own rhythms within the music. Tap is a MUST HAVE for Lindy Hoppers that want to increase their knowledge of history, timing, and footwork. No need to worry. . . if you have any Lindy Hop experience, it'll be a BLAST! Please bring tap shoes if you have them. If not, tennis shoes will work. Hope to see you there!
