Tapworks: A Tap Dictionary and Reference Manual Review: Thorough, informative, easy to read - This book is fantastic! It starts off with the history of tap, little blurps about significant people, social events, major tap moves, tap styles, etc. It's a lot of fun! From there it has over 100 pages of A-Z tap moves, sounds, timesteps and more. They are clearly written, cover all alternate names, and walks through each sound with the appropriate counting. The book wraps up with suggestions for what ought to be taught at each tap level. Very helpful! I'm tap teacher and I love using this book for class. I have "oh, that's what you call it!" and "I didn't know this combo had a name!" moments! I'm a teacher, but this book teaches me! Review: LOVE this book! - This book was suggested for my college tap dance class. I find this book to be very valuable to learning and understand tap dance steps. This book give tap history, and detailed descriptions of terms and steps used in dance, especially tap dance. I find this book to be one of my best tools in learning new or old steps. The notation method of describing the steps helps me to document other steps and combinations. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #213,472 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2 in Tap Dance (Books) #13 in Dancing Reference #1,177 in Study Guides (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (52) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 0.44 x 11 inches | | Edition | 2nd | | ISBN-10 | 0871272474 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0871272478 | | Item Weight | 1.03 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 192 pages | | Publication date | April 1, 2002 | | Publisher | Princeton Book Co | ## Images ![Tapworks: A Tap Dictionary and Reference Manual - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41WoJ5Kj6JL.jpg) ![Tapworks: A Tap Dictionary and Reference Manual - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41qNTF92xGL.jpg) ![Tapworks: A Tap Dictionary and Reference Manual - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51stQgHhbvL.jpg) ![Tapworks: A Tap Dictionary and Reference Manual - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61kXciHzv1L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thorough, informative, easy to read *by O***N on August 26, 2011* This book is fantastic!

Tapworks contains a brilliant history of some of the most popular steps such as the "shuffle off to buffalo" and various "time steps." It breaks down steps in an easy to decipher fashion. I learned so many new steps that were fun and easy to teach. Bev Fletcher is a master of tap. Us students need to learn all she has to offer to keep tap dance alive in the millennium. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/348761-tapworks-a-tap-dictionary-and-reference-manual](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/348761-tapworks-a-tap-dictionary-and-reference-manual) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-06-04*
