Tap Dance Photos

Tap dance is one of the most preserved in the dance world. It stands out with it's percussionary quality, thick rhythm and deep soul. We saw Gene Kelly and Fred Astaire bring tap to the silver screen, while Gregory Hines and Savion Glover bought it in from the streets giving tap a flavor that will never be forgotten. We've compiled photos of the greatest tap dancers and choreographers of all time as a tribute to all that is tap! Enjoy!
