thank you so much Karie Lee for this great lesson - just started learning tap this year and found your lesson very helpful indeed - best wishes from London England :)
Wow, where have you been on youtube all these years! I started tapping 5 years ago at age 65. I have been taking lessons in the local senior centers and following tap on youtube since then and never saw any of your videos until I put youtube on my big screen TV yesterday. Besides being gorgeous you are a great teacher! You are very thorough and clear. I love your videos!
Thanks so much Dave! I just started making videos about 8 months ago when the classes I was teaching went online due to the pandemic. Hope you keep watching. Happy tapping!
Liked your lesson. The Cincinnati and drawbacks have always befuddled me as a tap dancer. I liked how you've took the step and broken down, started slow. I do have one comment, as a tall male dancer whose built more like Chuck Green (who by appearance looks like football player) I wonder how can be light on my feet and dance with confidence, like Chuck Green.
So, to appear so light on his feet Chuck Green (also John Bubbles) had to have a lot of strength in this legs along with incredible balance, which also comes from strength in your core. He keeps his balance centered over his toes, so the heels only come down for accents and not to keep balance. This also comes from strength in your feet, and that ability to keep your feet loose, but precise. He keeps his arms and upper body relaxed and graceful, which makes all the strength in his legs and feet look deceptively easy. Here’s a good balance drill: ruclips.net/video/kBT4PWNSW0w/видео.htmlsi=kneaw041mTT0HKwE
I appreciate how you teach about hip movements being helpful for the spanks in the drawbacks
Hope that helps! Thanks for watching 😀

@@stillkickingwithkarie-lee6657 Thanks for you advice. You're so petite and small, I wasn't sure you'd get my problem, but you do. Thanks again,
such an amazing tap teacher! do you have online tap dance lessons Karie-Lee? Do you have classes over zoom?
