Tap Dancer Wants To Inspire A New Generation of Dancers
Kevin Igus saw Savion Glover perform in “Bring In Da Noise, Bring In Da Funk” and he fell in love with tap dancing. His father was a comedian, singer and dancer and had a connection to Gregory Hines. His mother supported his endeavor by getting Igus in contact with any dance instructor she could. He took dance at the Debbie Allen Dance Academy, as well as the Tap Academy in Santa Monica, Calif.
