👞🎬 **THE ONE WHERE YOU JOIN THE TAPATHON…** 🎬👞

It’s back! TAPATHON 2026 is coming to TSPA — and this year, ALL of our tappers are getting involved! 👞✨

From Mini, Junior, Senior & Adult Tappers, we’ll all be learning the same routine and coming together for a very special event.

🌟 A WORLD RECORD ATTEMPT
Tapathon is an attempt to break the world record for the largest tap dance, with dancers coming together at locations across the UK!

💛 RAISING MONEY FOR CHILDREN IN NEED
As well as being a world-record attempt, Tapathon raises vital funds for BBC Children in Need — so every tap, shuffle and time step is helping support an amazing cause. BBC Children in Need

🎶 AND THIS YEAR… IT’S THE FRIENDS THEME TUNE!

This year is all about celebrating the moments we share, the connections we make and the joy of coming together through tap. And what better theme than Friends?

✨ The one where we tap
✨ The one where you join Tapathon
✨ The one with the tap shoes
✨ The one where we make memories
✨ The one where TSPA comes together!

📅 TAPATHON DAY — Sunday 15th November
👞 Adult in class rehearsals begin — Thursday 17th September
👯 Children’s in class rehearsals begin — Friday 18th September

If you’ve been thinking about trying Tap, this is your sign! You’ll learn the Tapathon routine as part of our regular Tap class each week, then join the rest of the TSPA tap family as we take part in this incredible world-record attempt.

One routine. One tap family. One huge celebration of tap — all while raising money for Children in Need. 💜

So… could we BE any more excited?! 👞✨

We absolutely LOVE this beautiful feedback about Florence, who joined TSPA as a Tinie and has now completed her first year as a Primary student. 💕

From growing in confidence and developing her performing skills, to having exciting opportunities to perform on stage, Florence has truly blossomed — all while being surrounded by a team who encourage, support and nurture every student. ✨

And this line really made us smile… “Florence has never said she doesn’t want to go!” 🥹💗

That’s exactly what we want TSPA to be: a place where children feel happy, supported, included and excited to come through the doors each week.

We’re also so proud to hear that our performances have been such a highlight for our families. Seeing every face on stage “beaming” is exactly what performing should be about! 🌟

Thank you for trusting us with Florence’s performing arts journey and for your incredibly kind words. 💕

Well done Florence — and here’s to many more years of shining! ⭐

Every star shines brighter at TSPA. ✨
