I'm a guy, and I really appreciate all the effort that must go in for a woman to tap dance in high heels. I know its traditional, but thumbs up for that.

In spain we dance with the "normal" shoes. There's a trend of dancing in heels again in america...

I too am tappy!! I m 64 and still do sections of lessons sitting down with my feet under the table! I danced on Broadway...to break a record of the highest number of tappers performing together! We learned a quick routine and went dancing down the street! And broke the record!! Love to watch it, love to tap!!

Just noticed this today... i do my own kind of happy dance... i came out 30 yrs ago at 40 and then began going out to dance at local clubs for exercise, and did so for almost 25 years until the pandemic closed that down... hoping for a resurrection of the clubs eventually, so i can go out to dance again... in the meantime, we have You Tube for music and fun... xoxo from Albany, NY during the aftermath of the Nor'easter of 12-17-2020... cheers! Be Happy!

What inspires me to dance is that I dance from my heart, 💯%. I have severe scoliosis (I just had major surgery to correct it) and it's always been difficult to stay balanced and keep my energy up (my lungs and heart were affected by it), but I love it so much and I, before the surgery, I would dance and it was the only time I didn't feel pain; dancing makes me feel like I'm flying. 😊💕 I can't wait to get back to it in a few months, and keep up the good work, you guys. Tap on!! #Tappy #WhatmakesmeTappy 😘👑

Good luck! I had that same surgery done a little over 10 years ago. Recovery is tough but you will feel so much better in the long run.
