Christine Denny is the creator and director of TAPATAK OZ – the tap dance syllabus that launched in 2008. Since then, the syllabus has gained a reputation as being modern, technically challenging, fun to work with and relevant to today’s tap scene. TAPATAK OZ is giving its students and teachers an edge in training and development that is in step with industry needs and trends, and as such it is now in use all over Australia, as well as overseas, with examinations starting in 2011!
