Toronto Tap Dance Class For Adults Who “Used To Tap”

Toronto tap dance class in action

These Toronto Tap Classes Are PERFECT For You- Even If You’re Rusty As Heck And Haven’t Tap Danced In Years

Now’s the time.

If it’s been ages since you put your tap shoes on and you haven’t had the chance to throw down with us before, DON’T WORRY! After a few tap dance classes you’ll feel back up to speed. You’ll start remembering all the tap steps you used to master back in the day.

Byfield Dance Experience is Toronto’s favourite dance studio where people just like you come to get back in to it.

Oh, and heads up: We have tons of fun. Period.  And there’s always a gem of wisdom to take away from each tap dance lesson in Toronto, and all of our dance classes.

By the way, if you’re looking for some exercise, Tap dancing is definitely the best damn “boot camp workout” for your brain and your body, just as much as your feet. It’s safe, fun, and the perfect workout for adults. So if you’re looking for exercise, it’s a hell of a lot more exciting than a run on the treadmill. =)

** NEWSFLASH: ** Beginner Tap Dance Lessons are here!

I know at some point you’ve thought about learning to tap dance. I would be doing you a dis-service if I didn’t tell you it’s actually easier than you think. For realsies.

How? Check this out:

Yeah, I just said “for realsies.” You know I’m random sometimes. Anyway, a few friends asked about starting a basic, absolute beginner-beginner tap dance class, here in Toronto.

So. I finally gave in. Yes! Democracy for the win. =) And as they say on the west coast, “I’m like, totally stoked dude.”

But, before I go on…

…not gonna lie, they start soon. Like, really soon.

So to speed things up for you, I posted the SUPER-IMPORTANT info you need to know now (things like when, who, where, plus how to get a discount on a sweet pair of new tap shoes, and stuff about babies. Well, ONE baby) at that link, so go there now.

Please understand, this isn’t for the fence-sitters. If you seriously want to learn to tap dance, NOW’S THE TIME. It’s a new year. And you did say you’d stop procrastinating this year… so…

Did you visit the link yet? Or are you “gonna do that later” too?

Look… If procrastination is something you want to improve, then you owe it to yourself to at least go to the page. Get the info, make a decision. I’ll help you with the rest. Fair enough?

Cool. Gotta get back to work. Check your email early next week for more great news!
