Calling Tap Dancers!!!! Tap Dance Freedom’s Summer Intensive applications are now open. This will be the 5th year that we gathering for this 6 day intensive. It’s a super unique learning experience with only 12 participants, covering tap dance history, music and rhythm theory, new choreography, technique, and improvisation, in a progressive, pedagogical, and integrated approach.

For 2018 we’re adding sessions on Improvography AND Grooves and Accents.

Here’s what one participant had to say about her experience:

“Spending a week under the gentle and inspiring guidance of Andrew was eye opening for me. Not only did I connect with so many new dancers from all over the world, I learned about how we got there in the first place, through Andrew’s extensive knowledge of tap dance history. His stories of working with the great dancers who came before us – Jimmy Slyde, Gregory Hines, Savion Glover – compliment his teaching of techniques I can now use both in my own dancing and in my teaching. It’s my favorite week of the year.”
