Carly Smith
Tap dance

Carly started dancing jazz at the age of 3. Carly attended lots of dance competitions with her mum and sisters just for entertainment. She loved watching tap and begged her mum to let her start. Carly’s mum finally agreed when she was 8 and the rest is history!

From that day Carly was tap crazy! She took jazz classes until she was 19 but always loved tap the most.

Carly began student teaching at age 12 and was filling in for some teachers from age 13. That makes 20 years of teaching so far!

“I believe in most circumstances people can find a way of doing something if they really set their mind to it. I love seeing students accomplish something they find difficult and this is what inspired me to be a tap teacher” – Miss Carly
