Unless you're one of the lucky few, it's hard to find specialized training, professional guidance, and a vibrant community if you're a committed tap dancer.
That's why I've created my Tap Solo Mentorship program;
to give you the experience every young tap dancer deserves.
I have carefully put together a season-long program that will take you from solo choreography to competition success. Each month, we work together to grow your tap skills, polish your performance, and get you stage-ready. On top of that, you get to meet with a small group of like-minded tap dancers to learn and grow together.
Tap Solo Choreography
Choreography can make or break your chances of winning a competition. The Tap Solo Mentorship starts with us working together to create an amazing tap solo built around your strengths and goals as a performer.
Coaching & Instruction
Through coaching sessions, private lessons & tap solo feedback, we put together a custom training and performance plan so you know what it will take to reach your full potential as a tap dancer.
Tap Soloists Community
Be inspired by other tap dancers working to win and grow! Every month, my small group of tap soloists join together to connect, talk about opportunities & challenges and share what they're learning with each other.
Why I Created This Mentorship Program
What Does It Take to Win?
As you've probably experienced, most people don't understand or fully appreciate what you do as a tap dancer. Even professional judges at competitions can struggle to give good feedback if they're not an expert tap dancer themselves.
I have been a competition judge for over 15 years and have literally judged over 50,000 competition dances. Through that experience and seeing the dances I choreograph compete, I have thoroughly learned what it takes for a tap solo to stand out and win against other, more popular styles.
It boils down to 3 things: compelling choreography, strong technique and a dynamic performance. When all 3 of those come together, you can blow away any audience. Unfortunately, most tap solos only succeed in 1 or 2 out of the 3.
I've designed my mentorship program specifically to ensure my tap soloists put all those pieces together to finish among the top dancers at any competition.
But it's not ALL about winning...
Dance training can only take you so far. What has made me successful more than anything else is learning to be disciplined, to be a life-long learner, and to build up others around me. I want to pass that on to my students.
That's why I've built coaching sessions, monthly check-ins & the mastermind community into the program. I want to see my students grow as people just as much as dancers.
Over the course of the season, I look forward to helping my students discover who they can become through the vessel of dance.
“Meghan has been able to help my daughter see the great qualities she has as a dancer while continuing to work on developing her skills and stage presence.
'Meghan is Magic' is the phrase we use in our house to describe working with her. I am always in awe of just how creative and talented she is as a teacher and choreographer. It has been such a wonderful experience for my daughter to train with Meghan.”
