Tappy New Year from Wall-2-Wall Tap Dance Center!
Important Update Regarding Our Next Session…
Oops I Did It Again
Our next session is scheduled to begin on Monday, January 6. Unfortunately, Mary fell on New Years Eve (while mopping the studio floor) and dislocated her right elbow and fractured the head of the radius. She is scheduled to see the orthopedic surgeon on Tuesday January 7 and will know more then. From what she was told at the emergency room, she should be able to return to teaching 1-2 weeks after surgery. As a result, we are delaying the start of Mary’s classes for this session until she has been cleared by the doctor. Hopefully it will only be a week or two at the most. All of Raine and Marla’s classes (Never-2-Late Parts 1 and 2 and Tap Level 1) and Sheri’s classes (Tap Level 2 and Tap Level 4) will begin as scheduled on Monday. Stay tuned to our social media sites and our website for updates on when Mary’s classes will begin.
Also, please forgive any typos. Mary is having to complete this post while on heavy-duty pain medication and using only her left hand.

Mary, So sorry to hear! Obviously, cleaning is hazardous to your health! ;o)
Hope you will heal quickly.
I am soooo sorry! I know how painful this fracture is. I sheared off a piece of the head of my radius (tap dancing “incident”), had surgery, and recovery. May it all go smoothly for you!
Will your class at the Tap Festival tomorrow be cancelled then?
There will be a sub
Mary….you are in my thoughts. What a bummer for you to have to go through
another physical trauma…now with your elbow. Be kind to yourself as you heal and
know that you have countless friends/family/students wishing your speedy recovery.
Ouch! My goodness…here’s wishing you a very speedy recovery, Mary.
Keeping you in my prayers, Mary!
Sorry to hear about your accident. Hope you are feeling better and back to the studio soon. I was planning on taking the 2.4 class. Is that the one that will be delayed?
Mary Wall is scheduled to teach all 2.1, 2.4, 2.7 and level 3 classes. They are all being delayed. Never-2-Late Part 1, Never-2-Late Part 2, Level 1, Level 2, and Level 4 will go on as scheduled.
