How-To: Tap | If Cities Could Dance

Learn a basic tap sequence with Vanessa Sanchez, a San Francisco dancer and founder of La Mezcla, a dance company made up of women tap and zapateado dancers. La Mezcla brings these two dance forms, with African diasporic roots, together in theatric stage performances to tell stories about people of color and social justice.

Extension Project: Give your middle and high school students the opportunity to create and publish original dance videos with an accompanying artist statement with the KQED Youth Media Challenge: If Schools Could Dance.
