Tapping into a trend

Lisa Vaughan believes tap dancing is a good physical activity for her 9-year-old son Gregory, and she laughs that "it takes a lot of arm twisting" to get him to go to class.

Dancing is becoming more accepted for boys. My son is 17 yrs old and has been dancing since he was 8 yrs old. He takes tap, jazz, lyric, modern, ballet and acrobatic dance at The Dance Co. People that stereotype dancing as not manly have never been around dancers to know the strengh and endurance it takes to compete in a performing company.

u need to be in good physical shape to dance. many male & female dancers i know are in just as good a shape if not better shape than some pro athletes
