Rhythm Tap Workshop

We are sorry to announce the cancellation of the 2008 BYU Rhythm Tap Workshop due to low enrollment numbers. We would like to refer you to our Dance Medley Camp due to the fact that it has some tap elements in the program. We also have many other dance workshops that may be of interest to you that you can reference through this website.

We apologize if this is an inconvenience and encourage all who are interested in this camp in future summers to register at an early time.

This workshop will expose dancers to various styles and rhythms of tap technique. Guest instructors are diverse in their training, and all have performed and created many tap choreographies. Each day will consist of five to six hours of technique, improvisation, and dances. There will be one evening performance.

Director
Colleen West, an associate professor of dance at BYU, coordinates the tap dance program which offers 11–12 sections of tap classes. She has choreographed many large tap works for many major productions at BYU such as World of Dance and Homecoming Spectacular, and she has attended numerous tap workshops throughout the United States.
