Hi, this is Sarah McLellan in New York City we at June Parody's Dance Studio. On behalf of Expert Village I'm going to teach you today some basic and beginning tap moves. Come on in! Well as a beginner tap dancer you would probably not know really steps at all. So when it comes to warm up what we need to do is really just limber your joints, limber your ankles and get them ready to learn some steps. So I'm going to show you right now. So you want to start by rolling your ankle, rolling your foot around to the right and then changing and rolling it into towards the left. You want to try to do that with your other foot to, to the left and then swipe and roll it into the right. Then we are going to do some basic toe taps. Tap, tap and when you are doing this try to bring your top of your toe on top of your ceiling. Slap it down and bring it back so you are really working your ankle. On the other side.
