AppalTappers

Appaltappers Appalachian Tap Dance was started in July 2002 with group dances of Contemporary Appalachian Tap - known in America as Clogging - which is a lively and very active dance form. Originating in the Appalachian mountains of USA, this type of tap dancing isn't really clog dancing, rather, contemporary tap dancing to mostly modern music and it really is fun.

Being a mixture of Irish, Scottish and traditional English clog dancing, it has evolved into an enjoyable and fun way to dance. Unlike most dancing, you don't need a partner, so if you go wrong it doesn't matter, you won't be letting anyone down!

There is no age range, it is fairly energetic, but if you find you're getting a bit puffed, don't worry, take a breather! There's no special clothes to wear, just something to feel comfortable in and if you want to buy tap shoes, that can be arranged at a later date.
