24.01.2022 Surprise video! Hi everyone! It’s been a little while, but we’ve got a few cool things coming up, and thought we’d kick off the excitement with a re-release of one of our favourite videos from the last few years... This was such a fun video to produce! The cameraman and I had 4 hours to set up the empty space, get the lighting right and complete the shoot from all the different angles. There was at least 30 takesthank goodness the routine is less than a minute long I’m p...retty sure I had the best sleep of my life that night. Let us know what you think in the comments below! Like and share, and check out howtotapdance.com for more info. Much love, Bill Shot by Lance Smith Performed and Edited by Bill Simpson

22.01.2022 Checking out some tap history in Hollywood While only a chapter in the history of tap dance, Hollywood gave us all so much. The legacy these artists - and many others - have left behind is simply astounding. It was a beautiful experience to explore this sacred ground, and to take in a movie (alas, not tap dance, but superhero) at the iconic Chinese Theater.... #tapdance #hollywood #moretocome #istilllikedthesuperheromovie

20.01.2022 After 3 years since my last visit, I’m feeling super chuffed to be joining the faculty of tap dance performers, choreographers, educators and mentors at the Australian Tap Dance Festival later this year. ‘Tapfam’, I cant wait to catch up with you in Melbourne If you’re curious, come and check it out ... - Bill #tapmagic

19.01.2022 I get happily choked up every time I watch this video Fred Astaire called it 'The greatest dance number ever filmed'. Take a moment to appreciate...The Nicholas Brothers in 'Jumpin Jive' from 'Stormy Weather', 1943.... #nicholasbrothers #tapdance #tapmagic #beauty

18.01.2022 GIVEAWAY TIME! We want to know about the wonderful women in tap dance - past and present - who’ve inspired you in some way. Share with uswho is your favourite woman in tap? It can be anyone! A performer, teacher, someone you know or someone you don't, someone well known, or a local hero perhaps :)... Share your answers with us in the comments! We’re going to giveaway a copy of Just TAP: ‘The COMPLETE TAP TOOLBOX’ Bundle (Both the Absolute Beginner and Advanced Beginner courses - valued at $85USD) to our favourite answer. We’ll go first... #tapdance #wonderfulwomen - GIVEAWAY COMPLETE! - Thank you all for your comments! It’s been lovely to hear about so many wonderful women in tap dance, particularly the passionate tap teachers who work hard to share the magic of tap with others. I’d like to make special mention of a few names that popped up numerous times in the comments: Helen Lewis (‘Aunty Helen’ as she’s known to her students), and Merle Pullar. I’ve not met either of these ladies, but very much hope to soon. The words their students have written stand as testament to the wonderful work they do. On behalf of the tap dance community, I’d like to present both these ladies with a group hug , a fistbump , and a massive thank you . The winner of the ‘Just TAP: COMPLETE TAP TOOLBOX’ Bundle (Both the 'Absolute Beginner' and the brand new 'Advanced Beginner' courses - valued at $85USD) is Sirena Weil (her favourite woman in tap: Renee Bal). She has been teaching for 27 years and gives each of her students (from college age to tap dancers well into their 80s and up!) an outlet to forget all their troubles for the hour they are with her, connecting to the music and moving their bodies with joy to her fabulous choreographies!! I found Renee after finishing all my Breast cancer treatments at age 49 and must say how healing dance has been for my body and soul! I will never forget her words to me the first day of class, I know exactly who you are... You are a dancer that never got to become a dancer!. Renee Bal is not only the most fabulous Tap dance teacher around... she is a true HEALER of hearts! Congrats Sirena! We’ll message you about how to get the course :) Thanks again, and be sure to keep an eye out for the next GIVEAWAY question (start thinking about your favourite MEN in tap dance)

The incomparable duo: Eleanor Powell & Fred Astaire ... I've had the pleasure of performing this routine many times since I decided to slow down the video and attempt to learn it, and can tell you with absolute certainty: It's as fun as it looks. #tapdance #magic

03.01.2022 Gene Kelly. He never failed to astound. #tapdance #genekelly

03.01.2022 NEW VIDEO! We've been working on something special over the last few weeks, and we’re chuffed to finally release our new free instructional video ‘The Combination Every Tap Dancer Should Know: The Traditional Time Step’.... The ‘Time Step’ is one of the most common and universal steps in tap dance. It has a rich history, dating back to the late 1800s and early 1900s. Today, they pop up everywhere: classes, auditions, shows and films. There are many different types and variations of the Time Step that have appeared throughout the years, and many of these variations are practiced today. The ’Traditional Time Step’ that we cover in this video is effectively the ‘Base Pattern’. Once you understand this pattern, learning alternate Time Step variations becomes much easier. Give it a go - feel free to comment and share! In other news, there are only 5 days until the launch of the Just TAP ‘ADVANCED BEGINNER’ course. Pre-order here, with a super special offer only available for a few more days: http://justtapdance.com Happy tapping! Bill #tapdance #tapmagic #timestep P.S. FYI, a common Time Step variation (especially for USA based viewers) involves substituting a Stomp (a flat foot, without weight), or a Stomp-Spank (Spank the toe straight after the Stomp) for the Shuffle on count 8 ;)

02.01.2022 Astounding. It truly never gets old. #tapdancemagic #nicholasbrothers

02.01.2022 LAUNCH DAY! It’s rather a special time here at RHR :) After 4 months developing the brand new Just TAP video course, ‘How to Tap Dance for ADVANCED BEGINNERS’, I am thrilled to finally release it into the world.... I’m not going to say a whole lot, but wanted to take a moment to thank all the wonderful people who’ve supported the development of the new course. I’m thrilled to say, without ego, that I’m proud of what Just TAP has become; I honestly wish that I’d had these courses when I first started tap dance. I have always longed to help people all over the world discover the magic of this astounding art form. If, like me, you have experienced the ache of wishing to tap dance, then Just TAP was created for you. Thank you also to my family and in particular my girl Tiarna, who in addition to keeping me sane throughout the development of the course with countless cups of coffee, has been working behind the scenes throughout the planning and marketing process. Lastly, thank you to all who contribute to growing the art of tap dance, and to all who’ve come before. Happy New Year. Your pal, Bill P.S. To celebrate the launch, for 3 days only, we’re running a sale on the entire Just TAP series. If you’ve been thinking about kick-starting your journey into tap dance, now is the time. Check it out at http://justtapdance.com

02.01.2022 Feeling lots of tap love, and gratitude at the moment It’s a crazy time at Red Hot Rhythm headquarters as we prepare for the launch of the new Just TAP course (less than 4 weeks to go!), but in amidst the chaos, we’ve still found a few moments to stop, recharge and enjoy the simple pleasures. It’s also been wonderful to share the love and joy of tap dance with remarkable people all over the world. We always love hearing from you, and hearing your stories ... Tap-happiness is our new vibe, and at the end of the day, life is damn good. Thank you for being part of this little adventure. We’re looking forward to sharing more with you soon!
