Tammi B. says:
“Working with Mrs. Meghan on video shoots has been PHENOMENAL! Neither of us knew what to expect with the first video shoot. Any expectations we had were surpassed. This sentiment extends from the thorough planning (e.g. email updates, posting of choreography, great shoot locations) through the final, professional product. We have shown these videos to many of our friends, and they are amazed that the choreography was learned virtually, and the final product is top-notch.”
What's New This Year?
Guest Artist Classes:
Work With More Tap Pros
This year, we’re excited to bring you a special series of Guest Artist Classes! In each city, work with an additional professional tap dancer. Learn new techniques, styles, and insights from a different expert at each stop.
These sessions are a unique opportunity to expand your skills, get inspired by industry pros, and experience new approaches to tap that you can bring into your own dancing.
Bonus Shoot:
Re-Create a Classic Scene
In this fun, hands-on bonus session, you'll team up with new tap friends to re-create a famous tap dance scene from a 1940s movie! Together, your group will learn and rehearse some of the original choreography and bring the dance to life.
At the end, you’ll dress up in costumes and use props to match the classic style of the era and film your group’s version of the scene to create a short DIY movie starring you and your teammates!
This is a great chance to experience a little piece of tap dance history, have fun with friends, and make memories on camera.

A Note from Meghan:
Why Tap on Location?
I started tap dancing at the young age of five years old. That makes it 30+ years for me now!
Like most of you, I danced in all styles, trained hard with my studio ,and eventually learned how to succeed at competitions and conventions.
However, when I moved to L.A. straight out of high school, I learned that life on the competition stage didn’t prepare me for the professional dance world as much as I’d hoped.
I created Tap on Location to give young dancers a taste of the what the professional experience holds and to help you confidently transition into a successful career—no matter what path you choose.
