Percussive dance is a term used to describe a wide range of different dance forms with a strong element of percussion.  Instead of playing drums or other instruments we use our feet (or bodies!) instead.

Well-known types of dance under this category include tap dancing, Irish step-dancing, the traditional dancing of Canada and England, appalachian clogging, malambo, zapateado, flamenco, kathak – the list goes on (and on...!)
