The answers on this page are provided by cast members of the national tap dance company in response to questions mostly sent by school children who attended NTE cultural assemblies or other NTE educational programs, but they may also be of interest to the public at large, i.e. people who have little or no knowledge of tap dance. Whenever possible, we try to use language that is as simple and straightforward as possible..

Tappers, tap dance enthusiasts, professional tap dance teachers and performers should look to the Tapper's Page for more specific answers to commonly asked questions.
