Over the course of the semester, I have learned much about the process of learning the Gamelan. Initially, I thought that the class would abide by the Western styles of music. I had a rude awakening when we started to play. The intricacies of the Gamelan became evident after I saw the Indian Kathak performance.

The essence of tap dancing comes from the tempo. Tap dancers have to “listen to the rhythm” to execute their paces. Tap dancing seemed to be particularly developed in America and especially on the East coast. This movie shows that this type of dance is unisex and that dancing is not only “for girls”.

When the characters are talking about tap they mention it…
