Studio #1
Time	Class	Age	Level
9AM	Cardio Tap, Low-Impact	18 & up	ALL	Cardio Tap, Low-Impact This class starts with a warm-up consisting of basic tap steps such as shuffles and flaps, followed by approximately 40 minutes of non-stop, low-impact tap movement, and concluding with a cool-down routine, and some stretching. If you’re not proficient with your basic steps, don’t worry… you can follow along with simplified moves and still get a great work-out. If you’re a bit more advanced, you’ll learn how to add in extra sounds to make your work-out more challenging. Instructor: Kaela Hallum

Each class will be different, but will always be slow-paced. The instructor will take student input to decide what is worked on, and will break down each step so it is easier to understand. Tap shoes are not required, but are very helpful. You can either wear your sneakers for the first few classes, or rent tap shoes for $3. Instructor: Mandy Santiago
