Tap  is a dance form characterized by tapping sounds created from metal plates attached to both the ball and heel of the dancer's shoe. Tap shoes create a percussive sound which lends to the idea that tap dancers are concidered to be musicians.

Tap dancing uses both choreography and improvisation which can be done either with music or without musical accompaniment, otherwise known as a cappella dancing.

Standard tap steps include the shuffle, shuffle ball change, flap, flap heel, cramproll, buffalo, Maxi Ford, single and double pullbacks, wings, Cincinnati, the shim sham shimmy (also called the Lindy), Irish, Waltz Clog, the paddle and roll, stomp, brushes, scuffs, and single and double toe punches, hot steps, heel clicks, single, double and triple time steps, riffs, over-the-tops, military time step, new yorkers, and chugs. In advanced tap dancing, basic steps are often combined together to create new steps.

Broadway Studio's'Tap classes are taught by highly skilled tap teachers and incorporate technique, terms, timing, syncopation, improvisation, as well as standard and advanced tap steps.
