TESTIMONIALS FROM ADULT TAP DANCERS

"If you’re interested in meeting fun new friends, who laugh a lot, perspire heavily while building new brain cells and destroying old fat cells, join an adult tap class at SMSD! It’s the most fun activity of my week! And it’s a great conversation starter—" Alice Sessi

"I have stopped being embarrassed by the fact that I can't keep my feet from "tapping" while waiting in line at the grocery store, walking down the sidewalk of a new city on vacation, or waiting on my delayed flight in an airport! I can tap in tennis shoes, flipflops and house shoes. Can you tell, I'm hooked on tap dancing????? Thanks to Edwina Worley and her adult tap class at Shirley McPhail School of Dance, I have finally been able to fulfill a dream to be able to dance with a group of people as an adult--something unavailable to me as a child in a small town in Oklahoma. I will be signing up for my 12th season in the fall and can't wait! Our class has become another family group to be a part of that is refreshing, fulfilling, challenging and just fun fun fun!" Carla Sachar (58 years young)
