Parking. It can be challenging because the city has allowed -- even encouraged -- people to convert their garages into apartments and there are still many Air BnBs about. I usually have two parking spaces on my property -- if you know where to look -- and will soon have one or two more.
Classes are 55 minutes long. I have revised the schedule to put some space between the most crowded classes to make parking easier and also to allow for mini-show rehearsals between classes.
MORE NOTES:
as of May 30
Because of the June 7 and June 8 showcases, all classes are essentially rehearsals from now through June 7. (There will be a normal schedule on June 8.) So this is not the best week for new students to begin at any level other than the beginners class on Saturday May 31. Non-performers who know most of a dance can certainly take classes as long as they don't mind going over the show numbers repeatedly.
as of Jan. 21
Starting next week we're changing the names of some class levels: Level 1 / Level 2 becomes Level 1B. Level 2A stays the same. Level 2 becomes Level 2B. Level 2B becomes Level 3. There also are modest changes to class times. The Fitli schedule on the class booking page is current. The website schedule sometimes is not up to date.
To deal with crowding on Sunday morning, people are allowed to sign up for only one Sunday class until midnight of the night before.

Tap dancers sometimes make a distinction between Broadway-style “show tap” and “rhythm tap,” which is more akin to jazz and percussion...

About Eddie Brown
Eddie Brown was a marvelous improviser, meaning he could invent taps to music as he performed. The Saturday 10 am. "Eddie Brown" class is so named because it was his, up to his death in 1992, when his students asked his young assistant, Howard, to keep it going.
