      How do you know he isn't a Patreon subscriber, where the videos come out before they are on youtube?

      and, IIRC, they always post it on their website/itunes before making them available on RUclips.

    I don’t think some people appreciate the fact that she stayed on that tiny board. That shit is DIFFICULT you need so much space to energetically dance and she somehow didn’t fall off and utilized the space so well!

    • @SoulfulTruth
      @SoulfulTruth 5 лет назад +33

      I think she fell on her face a dozen times and got up so quick that we can't see it ... that's the only logical explanation.

    • @Udontkno7
      @Udontkno7 5 лет назад +18

      When you tap, you usually have to use a board. So we get used to the space!

    • @midnightfandoms8960
      @midnightfandoms8960 5 лет назад +8

      velvet shoe buckles I never had to use a board cause I went to classes in a big studio lmao but I guess if you travel you get used to it!

    • @lyricperson24
      @lyricperson24 4 года назад +15

      as someone half struggling through my third semester of taking the same beginning tap class,, the amount of weight shifting and balancing she had to do here to be able to (a) not fall down and (b) make the sounds she wanted to make while (c) staying in time and doing most of it so quickly is just... UGH the TALENT and PRACTICE that takes!!!

    • @kingdead42
      @kingdead42 4 года назад +9

      Her right foot slides off the board @1:03 but her recovery is immediate and so smooth, I'm not entirely sure it was a slip. I've probably watched this video dozens of times and just caught it. Still an amazing performance.

  • @jenniferferrier13
    @jenniferferrier13 8 лет назад +68

    As a percussive dancer myself, I always enjoy when you have tappers accompany your arrangements. Thanks for giving it the spotlight with this one. Sarah is incredible.

    Its 2023 and so happy I just happen to have been looking for something to watch and this channel popped up. I took tap dancing from the age of 4 till I was 18. And I loved every minute of it.While in high school in the 60s we had Amateur Night and the newspaper The Akron Beacon Journal came to cover it. Well I tap danced and a few weeks later boy was I surprised... My picture of me tap dancing was in the Parade/Roto section of the Sunday paper and the writer compared me to "Gypsy" which had just previously been at the theater. Now at 78 I have some good memories of my tap dancing years. Thank You for sharing this story of Tap Dancing with everyone on RUclips 💖

    I love how she puts every part of her into the dance. Her whole body, her expression, the way her eyes light up. I CANNOT. She is incredible. And the band? Never a misstep, tbh.

    • @vitaminluke5597
      @vitaminluke5597 2 года назад

      The fact it's still going strong after this long is a good sign. Even medieval, Renaissance, and baroque music still has a devout following. No doubt people will be tapping for centuries.

  • @leeholong5265
    @leeholong5265 8 лет назад +2757

    First I thought tap dancer dances on a board, is to protect the specially made shoes.
    Now I know it is to protect the floor...

    • @crazyfrisbee23
      @crazyfrisbee23 8 лет назад +176

      i thought something similar.. she could as well have danced on the floor, it's not that fancy. ok, it's a bit shiny, and in the end it's someones living room. btw i think the board also amplifies the sound of her tap's.

    • @summerlofland7494
      @summerlofland7494 8 лет назад +249

      Lee HoLong
      The board is to protect the hardwood flooring. Also hardwood flooring is very slippery in tap shoes which can make it hard to tap. I'm a tapper and I know how bad it can mess up the floors😬

    • @SissyFlower5
      @SissyFlower5 8 лет назад +148

      Tap shoes are very hardy. As a matter of fact, the first thing I do when I get a new pair is scuff them outside on the pavement so they're less slippery. They absolutely *massacre* your floors though.

    • @leeholong5265

      That is so infuriating, I wish they would at least do a couple of jazz standards every now and again. It would hopefully help expose more people to trad jazz, and would fit a lot better than a lot of the pop songs they try to crowbar a jazz sound into.

      @crazyfrisbee23 8 лет назад +8

      i can relate.... and in the same breath i have to quote lalaland: jazz isn't about the past, it's about the future. something else: im a dancer but no tap expert, i wonder if the title is justified, and she is doing older moves at the beginning and newer ones in the end. but anyway, sarah is absolutly amazing. her dancing and energy. and that costume. it ridiculously cool !

      @finnurth 8 лет назад +1

      m. kall I'm a bit confused, I have been watching about 30 of their fantastic videos and I never encounter any advertisements. They don't seem to monitize their material so the business model does not seem to include revenue from RUclips. They are of course using modern lyrics that they do not own and any monitization would have to be shared. Please correct me if I am wrong!

    • @flashgmaing2967

    • @finnurth

      Flash Gmaing yes so true, but what an ambitious journey this has been and I believe that in the beginning most of the artists appearing in the videos were basically doing it for free.

      @cassualtea2040 3 года назад +2

      to answer your question because I also got curious:
      He popped under the stand right before Sandstorm and popped up with the hat and sunglasses, he started with a black fedora.

    I am Truly honored that I have got to see miss Reich perform with PMJ twice. The most recent time was 15 feet away in the good seats. She is a dynamo.
    The fact that they use tap as an instrument is one of the initial things that hooked me about pmj.
    To me Sarah was as essential to PMJ's success on RUclips, as scott was.

      @saltator1802 5 лет назад +8

      You could easily make a replica, or your own variation on the theme, with a pair of black tights and a stretch top cut away as desired. It's really the trim makes it.
