How to Do Slap Ups in Tap Dancing

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! There is a few slaps ups that I would like to talk to you about today but I think I would start with the basic slap up. Cause these can add different steps and we are going to do a combination later that you would need to know all about a slap up. So let's get to work. The slap up start with your foot out, pose to the ceiling. You are going to slap that spot and step onto your foot so we have slap up step. We can do a slap up hop onto your left foot. Do it with the other foot this is the left foot side up slap up. So you have step, slap step, slap step, slap step.
