The North Carolina Youth Tap Ensemble (NCYTE, <br /> pronounced "insight") welcomes this opportunity to share <br /> information with you that may enhance your students' experienc-:e j <br /> with our performance at your school. We realize that many have 1 <br /> never seen a live tap performance (or even a filmed one), and j <br /> S the show may take them by surprise. Our performances include j <br /> Z <br /> brief stories and information about a variety of styles of tap 1 <br /> dancing. In these pages you will find additional materials that cc-in <br /> be used to introduce tap dancing, answer some of the questions j <br /> 1 students may raise, and provide ideas for activities to channel j <br /> what will hopefully be some enthusiastic post-performance 1 <br /> interest in knowing more.
