Step Team

 

"Stepping is tap dance without tap shoes, James Brown without the music of the JBs, Cab Calloway sans piano, a marching band without John Philip Sousa. It is jazz, funk, rhythm and blues, and rap without instruments. Stepping is lean and mean. The music comes from the sychronzied interplay of hands and feet, from chants and hollers. It is a way to make music using the body as instrument."
