    I've always wanted to try tap dancing and I've kinda d.i.y'ed my own shoes and I've tried this and I really like it. Thanks.

    When I'm away from dance class I like making my own combinations and doing them or watching your videos and doing your combinations. They're super fun, cool, and helpful - thanks! :D

    I like your teaching style, but your lesson would be a lot easier for me if you were facing away from the camera. It gets confusing when you are going the opposite direction from the student.

    • @anniehart6269
      @anniehart6269 8 років тому +5

      That's exactly what I thought. I think she should do that too. It would be way easier to just have her face the other way. I got really frustrated trying to go the opposite direction.

    • @mimimeems7478
      @mimimeems7478 7 років тому +3

      Yeah; it's a little annoying to have to reverse things, I'll admit. But that's okay. This was like 4 years ago.

    Great Vidoe but it would be incredibly helpful if you could have another box where it shoes you turning away from camera. For someone who has NEVER tapped before being able to follow your steps would make a world of difference. :)

      and it isn't considered general dancing, unless your a very confident person, don't try and pull his off in the club

      I realise you posted this 3 years ago, but if you are still interested the shuffle is broken into two separate moves. The brush (on the way down. Or forward in this video) and the spank (on the way up. Or back in this video). Her technique is not great on shuffles but she gets the sound out. Hope that helps 😊
