By Emma Neilson, DWC Social Media Manager

Tightening the taps of your tap shoes is an easy but crucial thing to know how to do! DWC Social Media Manager, Emma, will show you what you need, how to do it, and some important tips to remember!

Gather your items, you will need: Your tap shoes, and a screwdriver, most likely a Phillip’s head (the end is a cross)

Place the screwdriver in the screw, while pressing down very firmly, turn clockwise (to the right) to tighten, or counterclockwise (to the left) to loosen.

Be sure only to do a little at a time and test between adjustments!

And as always, check in with your teacher about how tight to make them! We hope this tutorial was helpful, to shop our tap shoe options click here!
