History
Tap dancing started in the United States. The moves were a combination of several percussive ethnic
dances. Its influences include African tribal dances. Scottish, Irish, and English clog dances, hornpipes, and
jigs.
During the late 1800s, dance competitions were the popular form of entertainment. Also known as
“cutting contests,” these events became breeding ground for new talents. One such contest took place in
1844 between Afro-American dancer William Henry Lane, also known as “Mater Juba” and Irish performer
John “Jack” Diamond.
