Why learn this?
The combinations of these exercises are easy to get. They all start with the basic rhythm any tap-dancer has to master upon learning the basic techniques. In this presentation the basic rhythm is always followed by a second part, the offbeat rhythm with its accents changing from ON the beat to OFF the beat. The important thing here is to maintain a strong and regular sound in both parts. These exercises lead directly to classic combinations as they were done - at a professional tempo thpough - by dancers like Eleanor Powell, Ann Miller, Ray Bolger, the Nicholas Brothers and many more.
This 1st part concentrates on the techniques of the shuffle-step (variations: scuffle-step or stomp-backflap) and the shuffle & hop (variations scuffle + heel or ball / stomp-pick + heel or ball).
