Drop-in: €15 (Only if a course is not fully booked--contact Colleen at 086-451-5833 for availability)

PLEASE NOTE: due to the short length of this term, this BEGINNERS course is best for those with some previous tap experience, i.e. those who have learned a few steps but lack comprehensive technique, or those who feel very rusty post-pandemic. Each week builds upon what you learned the week before. Explore the fundamentals of tap technique, basic steps, fun combinations and a dance routine!
