This class will be a multi-level class aimed at sharing the joy, creativity and history of Tap Dance with the students. The instructor, CTT Artistic Director Mark Yonally, has over 35 years of dance education experience and over 20 years of teaching multi-level classes, so all are welcome!

Mark Yonally is the Founder and Artistic Director of Chicago Tap Theatre. He has performed, taught and choreographed all over the US and Europe, with annual residencies in France and Spain. His work has been recognized for its vibrancy, humanity and musical sophistication. He has taught at numerous festivals and conventions, including Tap City (New York), The Chicago Tap Summit, the Maui Tap Experience and many others. He taught at Oklahoma City University, where he wrote their first Rhythm Tap syllabus and is a frequent guest artist at Hope College.
