Nicole Crew, a Wisconsin native, started dancing at age three to her record player in the living room. Trained in all dance styles, tap dancing has her heart; and teaching tap to all ages is her personal joy. She graduated with a degree in Dance and Education from Hope College in Holland, Michigan and has taught dance in Chicago, Florida, Milwaukee, and Cedarburg. Although a Cedarburg resident for a decade, she and her husband Eric now reside in the Richfield area with their three children, where kitchen dance parties happen often.
SHOES
As a general rule, the most comfortable and best-sounding tap shoes are an oxford-style lace up tap shoe. Like all things, these can range vastly in price from $30 to hundreds of dollars. For beginner work, a basic tap shoe will absolutely give you the sounds and comfort you want. See the links below for some affordable options. If you’re not interested in investing in tap shoes right now, dig in your closet for that clicky-tappity pair of dress shoes you already own that make noise when you walk down the street. They will work! And if you have character shoes, those work as well!
