There's a whole new breed coming up and there's plenty who can tap. That's how history works.

This is tap! It's what tap has been ever since it started right out on the street corner. Tap is competitive. It ain't ballet. Nureyev never came out on stage with Misha and did fours. Twyla never challenged Cunningham. No, tap has always had the Challenge at its red-hot core.

Tap has changed from Astaire's day, I believe it has changed from the Copasetics to Funk University. It doesn't make sense to fight against this new expression that is taking hold now. Yes, it's very different from the old way, and for me the feet are more amazing now than ever before.

Everything I do... comes out of tap dancing. When I take a European flight and fill out a landing card I put down tap dancer as my occupation.
