The Company
The mission of the company at Northwest Tap Connection is to preserve and promote
rhythm tap dance through education and performances. The studio philosophy is that
dance enriches the lives of the students, while developing self-discipline, instilling
self-confidence, and encouraging achievement and goal setting.

Northwest Tap Connection houses several different performing groups, including
NW Tap
Youth Ensemble
(ages 12-19), Totally Tap Kids (ages 5-12), and Tap2, among others. All
of the groups frequently perform both locally and nationally. The company is committed to
travel as an essential element of the program. All students are also encouraged to
participate in a yearly tap festival to build self-esteem and improve artistic and technical
skills.

These young performers have danced with such tap legends as the late Nicholas Brothers,
the late Buster Brown, the late Gregory Hines, Harold Cromer, Savion Glover, Dianne
Walker, Jimmy Slyde, Jeni LeGon, and Jason Samuels Smith.

All of the performing groups at NW Tap Connection are available for hire to dance at
events and shows. You can also see them live at the studio's regular showcase
performances, and in the community. For further information about the Company and
