No, you don't wear socks with tap dancing. Tap shoes are designed to create sound when the dancer's heels and toes strike the floor. Socks would dampen the sound and make it difficult to hear the tap rhythms.
Tap dancers typically wear:
- Tap shoes: These shoes have metal plates on the heels and toes that create the characteristic tap sounds.
- Footwear: Tap shoes can be made of leather, canvas, or other materials.
- Clothing: Tap dancers usually wear comfortable clothing that allows for freedom of movement, such as leggings, shorts, or dance pants.
Tap dancers may choose to wear socks with their tap shoes if they are practicing in a studio or at home, but they would not wear socks during a performance.
