Tapworks

"Tapworks, the tap dictionary, with more than 1,500 up-to-date entries, has been painstakingly researched by its nationally respected author, Beverly Fletcher. Each tap term is concisely defined in all its variations. Clear directions on "How to Execute" are given. Other names for steps are referenced." "Tapworks starts with a history of tap from the earliest beginnings to current trends, blending it with social history. Included are brief biographies of the dancers and performers who have profoundly affected the dance world." "The Reference Manual section is a special asset to dance teachers. Beginning with stage direction and theater terminology, it defines the different types of tap dances and lists source materials. The teaching instructions are invaluable - with specific plans for bringing students through the levels of beginner to advanced tapping." "Tapworks has been accepted by Dance Masters of America as its official reference manual."--Jacket.
