CLASS DESCRIPTION:
Jessica's tap class focuses on musicality, intricate footwork, and developing the technique to advance and maintain skills. Her style ranges from evoking the 1930s-40s movie musical era to exploring the musicality of modern artists. Jessica nurtures a supportive, community-over-competition atmosphere that lifts you up to help you succeed and gives you a cushion if you stumble. She will meet you where you are and guide you to your next step (quite literally!).
