Tap dancing is a dynamic form of exercise that engages various muscle groups, including the legs, core, and arms. The intricate footwork and rhythmic patterns enhance balance, flexibility, and coordination. As you shuffle, flap, and heel-toe your way across the dance floor, you’re not only improving your cardiovascular health but also refining your motor skills with each step. For me, I felt my heart pumping and I even broke a sweat—but in a way that the exercise seemed easy and invigorating.
