Is tap dancing easy to learn?

You can tap dance if you can walk. Tap dancing is not mysterious, it is not limited by age, venue, partner, amateur and professional, and it does not need dance foundation. As long as you have the sincerity to love life, tap dancing can make you stamp out the beautiful rhythm from the simplest left and right steps and bring you real happiness. A TV station in Beijing once broadcast live the process of a little girl learning tap dancing. She has never seen tap dancing before, but it only took the little girl an hour to master the basic steps of tap dancing.

Of course, everything needs a certain method. There are six basic steps in tap dancing: straight stroke, forward stroke, backward stroke, sole stroke, heel stroke and toe stroke, as well as some basic steps such as stamping, jumping on one leg and changing steps. Other movements are actually various permutations and combinations of these basic movements. Therefore, Yan Ling suggested that beginners must practice basic skills and then do some systematic training step by step. At that time, you can jump as much as Jim Carrey did in Singing in the Rain!

But if the method is not correct, the knee is easy to get hurt. Because tap dancing mainly depends on the impact resistance of feet on the floor, if the basic skills are not at home, jumping on the hard concrete floor will sprain your knees. Tap dancing should follow scientific methods and practice step by step.
