Perfect! You don't need ANY experience. The Basic Beginner class is great for absolute beginners. There are also recorded tutorials to help you get started. And I'm always happy to answer questions and assist you in any way that I can.

NO! You can never be "behind" in this club. I design the classes so that you can start at any point and feel comfortable joining in. We're all adults with busy lives and priorities, and I don't expect you to attend every class. All the live classes are recorded in case you miss or WANT to review the material, but you never HAVE to do so. The Happy Tappers Club should never feel like work or something you have to do. We want to tap dance to take away stress, not add more!

Not to get started! I would recommend planning to invest in a pair eventually - tapping feels better with the correct shoes, plus it's more fun when you get to make noise. If you're just getting started and not quite ready to invest, I'd recommend wearing hard-soled shoes (like flats or boots) or a smooth-soled sneaker (like Converse or Keds). Whatever feels good to you works perfectly!

It depends on you and your floors. Tap shoes should be designed to be safe for floors, but if you're heavy-footed (like me!) you can do some damage to flooring. If you'd rather be safe than sorry, I'd recommend dancing on some sort of tap board. I have recommendations inside the Membership portal for how to make or purchase a board. If you'd rather discuss these recommendations prior to joining, please reach out to me at [email protected]

Does dancing make you happy? Do you WANT to dance? Those are the only requirements here! If you're moving, you're doing it right. 😊

I'm glad you asked! Basic Beginner is where we learn and review the tap dance basics. This class is slow-paced and includes a lot of repetition. In the Advanced Beginner class, we'll spend less time reviewing the basics and more time learning (and sometimes reviewing) more challenging steps and patterns. It's slightly faster-paced, but we still use repetition (that's just my teaching style). 😁 As a member, you're welcome to take one or both classes! 

Nope. You're welcome to turn your video on or off for the classes. I love getting to see your face or your feet (it's sometimes hard to see both at once on Zoom 😂), but you feeling comfortable is the most important thing! 

Yep! There's no contract, and you can cancel online through your member portal. I just ask that you cancel before your next auto-renew date to avoid being charged for the following month. (Your membership auto-renews on the same date every month.)
