St Martins, Albany Road

St Martin in Roath church rooftop tap session!

Despite the consternation of poor Father Irvine we were allowed to have a tap dance session from the roof of St Martin Church. It had rained all night and so it was a bit slippy underfoot, but as we ascended the spiral staircase the skies brightened and the view from up there right across Cardiff was amazing. So we tapped the statistics of the city while looking across at the breadth of it - a really special experience (largely unnoticed by the shoppers of Albany Road, too!)

Spit&Sawdust Hangover Lounge

Tap Shoe Conversion and Tap Sessions

On October 5th madeinroath visited Spit & Sawdust Skatepark and Artspace and held some tap dance lessons and converted some shoes into tap shoes. We were joined by some very keen children who picked up the moves a lot more quickly than we did...
