There’s a quiet struggle happening in tap dance studios everywhere…

If teaching tap dance has you tapping out lately, you’re in the right place!

For the past decade and a half, I’ve heard the same things from tap teachers everywhere:

“I’m overwhelmed by mixed levels.”
“I feel so behind on my growth as a teacher.”
“I just want my students to fall in love with tap dance.”
“I spend so much time preparing that I barely enjoy teaching anymore.”

I created the iTap Teacher Certificate Program to give tap teachers the clarity, structure, and support they’ve been craving.

And if you’re on this waitlist, you’ll be the first to hear when the next round opens.

Hi! I’m Hillary-Marie

I have the coolest job in the world

I’m obsessed with making high-quality tap dance education accessible to tap teachers everywhere!

I’ve worked with thousands of tap teachers across 4 continents, performed with Grammy-winning musicians, directed my own tap company, founded Jersey Tap Fest, and ran a highly successful studio in New Jersey.

But just as important as all of that is what I hear from tap teachers every day.

I know the frustration of hearing that a student dropped out because “tap class is too hard.”

I’ve heard about the late-night lesson planning that takes you away from your family, and leaves you exhausted and second-guessing yourself.

(0/10, do not recommend!)

I see the pressure and guilt that comes with caring deeply about your students and constantly feeling like you should be doing more for them.

And I’ve had many honest conversations with teachers who love tap dance and their students…

Yet still leave class some days feeling completely drained, overwhelmed, and ready to step away.

But I also know how transformative it feels when teaching becomes clear, structured, and joyful again!

Why I Created The iTap Teacher Certificate Program…

To give tap teachers the support, tools, and confidence I wish I had earlier in my journey!

This 10-week tap teacher training is centered around the 5 Fundamentals of Tap Dance:

01

Technique

02

Improvisation

03

Music Theory

04

History

05

Practical Application

You’ll learn how to bring all 5 into your classroom in a way that feels natural, intuitive, and exciting…

(So your mixed-level dancers pick things up faster without you working harder!)

And you’ll learn alongside a global group of tap teachers who care as deeply about their students as you do!

(Because who doesn’t love feeling supported, inspired, and connected to people who just get it?)
