In this post, associate blogger Hillary-Marie Michael shares another lesson she learned at this year’s New York City Tap Festival! The other 2 posts in this series are about style and tap history.
The only fear of improvisation, is fearing improvisation itself.
Being afraid of improv holds you back and that fear creates a barrier that is hard to surpass.
I was at Tap City’s boat jam, and a lot of hard hitters were on that floor, such as Jason Samuels Smith, Chloe Arnold, Jason Janas, Siohban Cook and Sarah Reich.
Following them was hard, and scary. But no matter who came out on that floor, everyone was welcoming. Kids as young as age 8 were trying their hand at it. Improvisation allows you to grow, and who better to improvise for than the tap community, your tap dance family?
