This is such a fun routine! And it looks more advanced than it is. I can''t wait to perform it.Thank you Karie-Lee!

So awesome 🤩 cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

So fun to watch!

Love it!!

Love it! Will practice!!

what music should I do this dance with?

Wonderful!

Great routine, I'm singing to myself a vintage favorite "Shine on Harvest Moon" and it lines up perfectly, so I'm going to work on this choreography and give it a try, maybe with a little vintage vernacular Jazz thrown in for good measure, actually this might work for a classic Cole Porter song called "Anything Goes",and a vintage favorite called "Murder he says" by the Four Vega Bonds.

A suggestion. Could you demonstrate what the finished step looks like before you start breaking down. That way we have a goal to reach instead of wondering what the final step looks like.

Liked your lesson. The Cincinnati and drawbacks have always befuddled me as a tap dancer. I liked how you've took the step and broken down, started slow. I do have one comment, as a tall male dancer whose built more like Chuck Green (who by appearance looks like football player) I wonder how can be light on my feet and dance with confidence, like Chuck Green.

What fun!!

Yes! You mentioned tap at the end of this video. Still waiting for a new tap video! I just learned double double paradiddles last week. Didn’t even know there was such a thing.

Absolute first time seeing you and this was beautiful to do for your mother. I love how relaxed your kitty was. It's as though he/she was tapping their little paw at one point. Very nice work🎵🎶🎵🎶❤

You say things in just a different way that is resonating with me. Thanks! I will bet you are an amazing dancer and even better teacher.

well done

Love this! Thank you! As a singer/actor who has learned some dance by being in shows (and taking my kids to dance classes!), this is so helpful! I’m trolling KZbin for combinations to work on to become more comfortable at the dance portion of my auditions.😅

Had to watch this and learn at speed .75, because I'm a totally new dancer, but this was wonderful. Thank you for the audition video Karie and all bringing all your wonderful years of experience of dance to teach us around the world. <3

..Много говорит...

I was not expecting the “cat stunt” 😂😂😂 made me chuckle! Absolutely love your video ❤ thanks for teaching the steps so thoroughly

Great job!!!

Love this video 😊

Yay...

I know you are very busy performing but I sure miss your videos. I’m teaching basic tap for women over 50 and found your videos to be very helpful.

Please let us know where to find the video tutorial for putting actual taps on any shoe. Thank you!

Hi Karie! Thank you for this video. Just a question, where in the song does this portion start?

Thank you so much for this and all your other videos. I have been wanting to learn to tap dance with KZbin for ages because adult classes do not exist near me, and this is the best channel I have found so far. You use all of the classic songs and styles that I love.

Wonderful! Did you ever post the Blue Skies routine mentioned in a previous comment?

How about the quadruple time step. You were almost there! I am using your videos to compose my lessons for senior tappers. I love how you break it all down and especially how you insert the right rhythm for the time step. 1:50

What do you think is the likelihood I’ll be able to learn tapdancing in about a week? For “Singin’ in the Rain”

You're a genius

What’s this song called

I know Karie-Lee personally and she’s much more than just a beautiful talented lady who is an amazing teacher but the most pure soul, kindest hearted person I know! Sometimes we think people who are that pretty just couldn’t be nice but believe me-she really is!! Over twenty years and she’s never shown any sign of ugliness!! Not one!

This is by far the most helpful info I found about fitting tap shoes. I have read so many other fitting guides online, such as snug but not tight, not painful but no additional space in the toe box, and so on. But what kind of space is considered "additional space"? Is "wiggle room" considered additional space? I never know. Nothing is clearer than you showing with a tap shoe and pointing out the toes should reach the end of the shoes. It also gives me a peace of mind when you said it is a tough call right there because I am never sure if I bought one size too small or not. Thank you for your video!

Ive got adult Mary Janes just temporarily because im a month in and i need something to start if with

This is a great challenge! Thank you!

I appreciate how you teach about hip movements being helpful for the spanks in the drawbacks

This is a great combo! Thanks!

Many thanks.

I love you for this video! Thank you for a simple cheap solution.

thank you so much Karie Lee for this great lesson - just started learning tap this year and found your lesson very helpful indeed - best wishes from London England :)

thank you-67 years old and able to follow!

I didn’t have washers but coins worked perfect

Hi Kari- you are an awesome teacher!! Loved this video- appreciated the close up of the feet and the two tempos.

This is grand! Thanks!

Love this video! My daughter (16y.o.) is a ballerina with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy. Crazy I know. When she was a little girl, a ballet teacher told her she could dance and she can. Ballet is much more fun than painful "range of motion" exercises! Due to this obsession with dancing (and some very supportive medical and physical therapy personnel), she pushes herself to the max, and finally at age 13 she began to walk without a mobility device. Just last year she performed her first ballet solo without a device. Now, her obsession is tap. Difficult to visualize, given her circumstances, but I thought a "cane dance" might be the solution. We're going to practice this step. Thank you for introducing it! Very interested in the board, too.

This is a wonderfully delivered lesson. Thank you for keeping true to a studio instruction experience. This was exactly what I’d hoped to find. Thank you. Keep tapping!

Beautiful

Thank you! Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

Thank you for posting this and not putting it behind a paywall. I tapped as a child but now I'm unsteady on my feet sometimes so this is a good way to start back up.
