HELLO!

Hi guys!  Thanks for visiting my web site!  This is a great place for us to get together, share ideas and information about tap and talk about what’s going on in our “Tap” world!

Check my blog to see what I’ve been up to and click the “teaching tools” tab to find my books and my brand new line of Flash Tap Products to help you in the classroom.  You’ll find an order form to download there.

I will also post a Tap Step of the Month in case you wanted to play with something new or need an idea for class.  I’ll also keep an updated list of songs I like or that you suggest for class and choreography.

Don’t forget to stop and say Hello and let us know what’s going on with you!  Feel free to leave music suggestions or steps to share!

  1. In your notes for the upcoming CNADM Teacher Training School, you referenced the Learning Accomplishment Profile and said we could view a copy on your blog. I’ve tried to find it and can’t. Could you possible tell me what month and year it was posted and I should be able to find it that way? Thank you in advance and I am so looking forward to seeing you in a few weeks!!!

  2. Hi Diane, we’ve got a danceschool in the Pretoria area. We are looking for step-by-step books (yours) for acrobates, modern and contemporary, jazz and ballet. Can you please let me know where can I bought or order your books? We will be so honored to hear from you.

    Kind Regards
    Lizanne

    • The order form is downloadable from this website. I will be coming to Pretoria in early June to present my US – SA Teacher’s Training Seminar for its second year. Would love to see you there and I will have some of my books with me at that event as well. If you want to attend, please contact Amanda Kroon at Dance International (also in Pretoria) or let me know you are interested and I will send you a flyer when they are ready!

  4. Congrats on your new site! What a great idea! You are such an inspiration! Keep going and growing! Happy feet make happy hearts!

  8. Hi Diane,
    Just wanted to say thanks for all your inspirations and great tap tips and music theory. Loved your classes at DTLC, it’s always a good time. Waiting to get your “variables” book. All those little tidbits come in so handy when you are feeling stale and in a rut. Thanks for all you do to help us teachers….
