ABSTRACT:
A tap is strapped to the toe of ordinary street shoes for amateur type tap dancing and slipped over the fingers of those confined to wheelchairs for hand tapping. A thin body of hard material has spaced slots thru which a strap is passed which is fastened over the top of the toe of the shoe. The tap body is thinned on one surface between the slots and is thinned outboard of the slots on the other side to accomodate the thickness of the strap. The strap is preferably elastic and coated with a tacky material on the shoe side to retain it in place on the toe of the shoe.
