As part of our mission to contribute to the revitalization of Philadelphia's tap community, The Lady Hoofers holds a weekly company class, which is open to the public on a drop-in basis. The class is advanced/professional, and dancers under 18 will need a parent or guardian to sign them in. Please follow The Lady Hoofers on Facebook or Twitter to stay updated on cancellations due to weather or performances.

Additional Area Tap Classes
As one of the region's premiere tap companies, we often receive questions from parents and students who are interested in finding local tap classes. We are not a dance school or studio, but several of our First Company and Apprentice dancers work as Teaching Artists for the Ensemble and also teach locally (in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware). Directors Kat Richter and Katie Budris are also available for Master Classes, Private Lessons, and College Residences. Please contact The Lady Hoofers for more information private lessons or sign up for our mailing list to receive information about future Master Classes, Workshops, and Tap Intensives.
