Hi everyone,
Welcome to Tony's Tap TV. Episode 9. I'm really having a great time sending this stuff out and I'm serious when I ask if anyone has content that they would like me to include, I'm really open at the moment. I'm all ears!
Meanwhile, ARTISTS, check out the link I've provided below to the Howard Gilman Foundation. It's a list of places and organizations that you can apply to as an independent artist, dancer, singer, actor or musician. It's a great resource all in one place.
Today we continue with a clip from my Tap Basics Instructional Video that focuses on shuffle ball change and shuffle toe heel step. Check it out dancers. Did you know that you can go back to ALL the clips from Tap Basics and create your own class by combining everything I've posted so far? You now have instruction on flaps, toe heals, thirds, crawls, time steps and more. Visit the archives to rewind. (see below)
Meanwhile I've added a new International Tap Dance Hall of Fame tribute to the late James Buster Brown. What a great guy Buster was. EVERYONE loved Buster. He was the epitome of a Copasetic for sure!
Next we have a wonderful link to the promo for the GREGORY HINES YOUTH SCHOLARSHIP FUND I put together years ago. The program is solid and it supports our youth program by providing year-round youth training scholarships for kids in need of financial assistance or if they show extra special talent in the area of tap dance. You can visit the
GREGORY HINES YOUTH SCHOLARSHIP
page on our website for detailed information on how to apply. Or you can make a donation dedicated to this program specifically.
Enjoy everything. And take care. More to come!
