I used to tap dance as a kid up until I was 16 years old. Decided to pick it back up nearly 14 years later and i must say, these videos are AMAZING!!! I love them so much!!!
YAY!!! Tap dancing is the best. Hope you enjoyed this tutorial, and please let me know if you have questions about any of the steps (or tap dance in general). Happy tapping!!! 😊💜😊💜
How is it going now. I got my tap shoes, about a week ago, and put them on for the first time about 6 minutes ago. This looks too hard for me, to start, I need to take it step, by toe, by step, in slo-mo, on a more amateur video. Any advice? Thanks!
Thank you much for these videos!!!! I haven’t tapped since I was LITTLE LITTLE like 4 years old and I regret so much not following through with it. I’m 31 and getting back into it. These are the perfect beginner routines. Thank you!
This helped me so much my school is doing Something Rotten next spring and I've never done tap before after this video I already feel so much better and confident about it!
Wonderful!! I’m happy to hear this was helpful for you. I’ve heard that Something Rotten is great, but I’ve never had the chance to see it. Have fun! 😊💜
@@BeginnerDanceTutorials I'm sure lots of people enjoy your sense of humor! I don't know where you're located , but once the world gets rolling again , I'd love to take classes with you !
I love this! im 14 years old and I got asked to buy tap shoes for theatre club, next week classes are starting but I decided to get onto it before... and I gotta tell you, im obsessed! great video, not only are you a great person but a great teacher, cool choreo too!!! :)
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! You made my day! I started out with tap dancing some time ago, but found it so complicated and I decided to put it on the side for when I'd have more time. I, now, happened to find this video and tried it on the spot with no shoes on. No words!!! This is so easy and fun! As a plus sized girl and office computer worker, this might just be what it takes to get me outta the couch and dancing!!!! :)
Hi I love this tap routine and I love that you understand how people learn and you turn round, so many teachers face the camera when teaching online. I feel like I'm taking classes at Pinapple Studio again. My daughter and I learnt Jerusalema with you. You have kept us moving during lockdown restrictions. Thank you very much.
Oh can you recommend a slower song to do this routine to I am so weak on my left side and I'm missing so many taps. Funny that was the feed back the examiner gave me about 30 years ago when I was doing tap.😂
For something a bit slower, try “Better When I’m Dancin’” by Meghan Trainor. You can also try “Blame It On the Boogie” by Jackson 5 (even slower). Hope this helps!
Thanks so much for this video! I'm really missing my tap class right now because . . . QUARANTINE! This is a great sub until I can get back to class. :-)
i am not new to tap but i havent done it in 5 years and forgot how to do it. I got some tap shoes for christmas and am learning at home. My school is having a talent show soon so this gave me an idea. I just need to practice now.
Hi, thank you for the lovely videos, I’m really enjoying it. You may have mentioned this before but where do you get your tap shoes from? Many thanks 🤗
Hey there! My shoes are made by Bloch, and you can get them from their website, a dancewear store, or even Amazon. They make good quality tap shoes. Capezio is another quality brand. Hope this helps! 💜
Hey, I want to post myself doing these steps for social media. Do you want me to put a link to your channel when I do so? This is a really fun dance, and I enjoyed practicing and learning it!
Please feel free to share! If you post on Instagram or Facebook, you can tag me (because I love to watch dance videos!), but it's not required or anything. Or if you want to use the hashtag #prettygooddancing, I'll likely see it. I'm so glad you enjoyed this dance. 😊 Take care! 💜
It’s my pleasure - glad you’re having fun! ☺️💜 I absolutely take requests, but it could be a few months before I’m able to record them. Do you have a song in mind?
Never took dancing but my daughters have..... so I've been watching your videos and will be ordering a pair of tap shoes. Maybe this can Also help my girls to learn the steps better and mother-daughter bonding....jm hoping to also lose weight
This is wonderful, Edie! Love to hear that this might help you bond with your daughters.🥰 Thank you for letting me know, and best of luck with your tap dancing! 💜💜💜
Hello! This is an awesome video! I am considering recording myself learning how to tap dance and using this video in it. Is that ok with you? Do you have any requirements for what to write in the post?
@@BeginnerDanceTutorials that's true, but I am a struggling beginner who is yet to buy her first tap shoes so I think it will take a while before I have that speed! Very grateful for your video tutorials though.
It’s important that your weight stays centered over the balls of your feet, transferring the weight out of your heels. This makes it easier to move quickly from foot to foot. Other tips - make sure that your feet are directly under your hips and always keep a bend in your knees. Other than that, time and practice! 🙂 Hope this is helpful!
9:24 Am I stupid because I’ve been a tapper for years and I’ve never seen a heel be called a dig. At least not by my teacher. Not saying you’re wrong just saying It was hard for me bc I’m so used to pressing on the ball of my foot for a dig. Great combo!
I’m sorry if that made it difficult for you! I’ve heard it called both, but I learned it as a heel dig. I’ve found that tap dance steps have a lot of variations in names, and it can definitely be confusing. Thanks for trying the combo! 💜
Any hard-soled shoe should work (like a flat dress shoe or boot) or a smooth-soled sneaker (like Converse or classic Adidas). Hope this helps, and sorry for the slow response! Take care. 💜💜
Hiiii, I tried to do the beginning. I am still learning the rest. Thank youuuuuu!!! Here is the link to the video that I show the steps I learned. The beginning it s missing the double shuffle ball change. ua-cam.com/video/VQ9dx0ww0rM/v-deo.html
Practice with music here! ua-cam.com/video/Vad0PPt_GOU/v-deo.html
Beginner Dance Tutorials would you ever do a tutorial to a tap number from La La Land??
@Destiny Carney wishing you best of luck! 💜
I used to tap dance as a kid up until I was 16 years old. Decided to pick it back up nearly 14 years later and i must say, these videos are AMAZING!!! I love them so much!!!

Every time you say let's go faster, I'm like but we're going pretty fast already
😂😂 It's true, but Footloose is a FAST song!
@@BeginnerDanceTutorials that's true, but I am a struggling beginner who is yet to buy her first tap shoes so I think it will take a while before I have that speed! Very grateful for your video tutorials though.
22:50 reminder for me
Hi can u do michael jackson breaking news please 😍
is the heel of the foot used for any of the shuffles?
No, just the ball of the foot. Great question! 💜
Beginner Dance Tutorials Thank you so much!!
Do you have any other tips on shifting weight quickly
It’s important that your weight stays centered over the balls of your feet, transferring the weight out of your heels. This makes it easier to move quickly from foot to foot. Other tips - make sure that your feet are directly under your hips and always keep a bend in your knees. Other than that, time and practice! 🙂 Hope this is helpful!
21:50 full dance slow

if you dont have tap shoes whats a good substitue
Any hard-soled shoe should work (like a flat dress shoe or boot) or a smooth-soled sneaker (like Converse or classic Adidas). Hope this helps, and sorry for the slow response! Take care. 💜💜
had to it for school sadly
Sounds like fun to me. 😬😆
21:44
Do one to du du du du du by black pink
Thank you for the suggestion! 💜
I'm going to tap dance soon but i don,t know how tap dance

Which links are you looking for, Candi?
does anyone else just wanna learn the tap break in Turn it Off from Book of Mormon?
I haven't seen Book of Mormom yet, but now I gotta check this out.
