Calling ALL tappers ages five and older! MCA’s (Minnesota Conservatory for the Arts) Annual Holiday Tap Jam is going virtual. Tap students are invited to participate in this fun-filled Holiday Tap Jam. This jam is open to tappers everywhere. Participants will be given access to a video to learn a short tap warm-up and combination during the week leading up the tap jam and will receive a little goody bag to enhance the Zoom session (accessible for pick-up in Winona only; a list of items will be given to non-local students). The live Zoom Celebration will include games, sharing, and conversation. For the live online session, students will just need a little space (safe to tap, such as a tap board*), tap shoes, and a device enabled with WiFi. Cameras will be enabled to allow students to interact with the instructor and other students, but families may choose to not share their image.
