The Al Gilbert Tap Technique!

This is Al Gilbert’s original Grade 7 Tap Technique. There are OVER 50 Exercises on this DVD that are designed to utilize the Close-To-The-Floor training from grade 6. At this point, your dancers are definitely at a solid advanced, pre-pro level in tap. Close-To-The-Floor Combinations such as Heel Shuffle, Heel Scuffle, and Heel Riffle are included here. Also, Mr. Gilbert digs deep into riffs with Syncopated 7-Tap Riff, Riff Traveling Time Step, and 8, 12, & 14-Tap Riff Walks. Many wings and Pull Back Combinations to further strengthen your dancers ability to “Nerve Tap” are also included. Each DVD has been digitally re-mastered to improve sound quality, easy menu navigation for quick exercise selection and PDF notes on the disc.
