The North Carolina Youth Tap Ensemble (NCYTE, l <br /> Spronounced "insight") welcomes this opportunity to share <br /> S information with you that may enhance your students' experience 1 <br /> S with our performance at your school. We realize that many have 1 <br /> S never seen a live tap performance (or even a filmed one), and j <br /> Sthe show may take them by surprise. Our performances include 1 <br /> S brief stories and information about a variety of styles of tap 1 <br /> S dancing. In these pages you will find additional materials that can 1 <br /> S be used to introduce tap dancing, answer some of the questions 1 <br /> S students may raise, and provide ideas for activities to channel 1 <br /> S what will hopefully be some enthusiastic post-performance 4 <br /> S interest in knowing more.
