What is a Tap Dancer?
The form of tap dancing we recognise today came about in the 1910’s, with some moves adopted from Irish jigs and African tribal dancing, it developed into its familiar form when metallic taps were added to the heel and toe of dancing shoes. The style was continuously adapted and molded by famous tap dancers who explored the form and came up with creative and exciting new moves in their choreography. Tap dancing can also be characterised by their use of rhythm, as tap dancers can either create beats with their feet or accompany the beats in music. Moves found in tap dancing include shuffles, heel clicks, flaps and pullbacks alongside many more.
Did You Know? – Every year at the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade over 6,000 tap dancers dance their way along the streets of New York.
What is the Difference Between Tap Dancing and Irish Step Dancing?
Although tap dancing is a distinctive style it is occasionally mixed up with another form of rhythmic dance; the Irish step. One of the major differences that separates the two is the use of arms. Where tap dancers will move their arms with their feet and incorporate their arm movements in their dance, in Irish step the dancer’s arms remain pinned to their sides, with their upper body being stiff and all the focus remaining on the legs and feet. Additionally, although both dancer’s shoes seem the same they are actually made of two different materials, tap dancer’s shoes are made of metal and Irish step shoes are made of fiberglass.
