From age seven and up, TDC offers programs to students that want to improve their skills while attaining a more ‘all round’ education in tap dance. This program enhances a student’s skills by incorporating many different aspects including music theory (through bucket drumming), syllabus training (including history), technique, choreography, and improvisation. The companies are geared towards the professional stage, as they prepare for three to four showcases that take place throughout the season.
