"The Tap Into Freedom Intensive introduced me to a new perspective on tap dancing. I left with a new approach on how to interpret and work on not only the steps and progressions, but also musicality and rhythm." - Sandra, Puerto Rico

"The environment that was created for and during the Tap Into Freedom intensive was one full of enthusiasm, passion, hard work, love, and a huge sense of appreciation for both each individual in the room and the huge wonder that is tap dancing." - Kirsten, USA

"As a tap dancer/choreographer/instructor and educator, the tap into freedom intensive was truly a ‘tap dance educational experience’ because it was multi-faceted...looking at steps that I have done for so many years from a different angle to attack them from another perspective." - Donna, USA
