About Vancouver Tap Dance Society

Vancouver Tap Dance Society envisions spaces in which the cultural values of growth, care, cooperation, excellence, and grace, are experienced, engendered, and expressed with joy through the physical practice of tap dance and related cultural arts. This is achieved through the activities of training for all levels, ages, and body types; sharing the arts and celebrating unique voices in performance; and producing events designed to gather communities together. VanTap does this through fulfilling our mandate which includes: 1. Dance Academy: The Academy provides dance classes for dancers of all ages, levels, and body types throughout the year at various levels of engagement. 2. VanTap Fest: our annual festival dedicated to spreading the joy of tap dance and providing dancers with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to learn from many internationally-renowned guest artists, and presenting audiences with premiere performances. 3. TapCo: The Society’s elite youth tap ensemble. TapCo carries repertoire ranging from classic to contemporary pieces, and tours British Columbia schools with an educational show about tap dance. 4. Outreach Program: Leveraging the faculty of and students trained by the Academy, the Society’s Outreach Program provides classes to hundreds of children each year by partnering with local schools.
