If you watched Steven McRae tap away at the Fall for Dance Festival at City Center and thought, “Wow! I wish I could do that!” then I have some exciting news for you. The American Tap Dance Foundation is offering tap dance classes specifically geared towards children and teens.  The classes run through June 2012. All levels are welcome and you can drop in and try an adult class for only $15. The foundation aims to teach America’s youth this indigenous art form. Founded in 1986 by master tap dancers Brenda Bufalino, Tony Waag, and the late Charles “Honi” Coles, the ATDF has performed in hundreds of concert, stage and film projects around the world, captivating its audiences. The ATDF is a nonprofit organization which provides “year-round programming of performances, workshops, daily classes for adults and children, tap jams, lectures and film presentations.” Now under the direction of Tony Waag, the ATDF has fulfilled its dream of creating an international tap center in New York City. The organization’s sole mission is its commitment to “establishing and legitimizing Tap Dance as a vital component of American Dance through creation, presentation, education and preservation.” How’s that for interactive art!
