We love the sounds of Tap and Clogging at Vestavia Dance — there’s nothing quite like the rhythm, energy, and joy these styles bring to the studio!

Our Beginning Tap classes introduce dancers to the fundamentals of rhythm and timing through fun combinations featuring shuffles, flaps, stomps, riffs, pullbacks, and more. As dancers advance, they build on these foundations to master more intricate footwork, syncopation, and expressive style.

Clogging, a lively offshoot of traditional folk dance, adds an exciting twist with shoes that feature double taps, creating a bright, percussive sound that’s sure to get toes tapping!

Both our Tap and Clogging students take the stage in our annual recital, and many have gone on to perform as part of our award-winning competitive teams. In every class, we emphasize clarity of rhythm and sound, musicality, and full-body expression, helping dancers develop confidence, precision, and a true love of performing.

Come make some noise with us — one step, shuffle, and stomp at a time!
