Meet an “Amazing” With Youthful Spirit and Tapping Toes to Match

Marcella Ward started learning tap in her senior years.

Marcella Ward, at 89, loves nothing more than to tap-dance the day away! A member of “The Jazzy Tappers” (most of whom are in their 80s) at the Toowoomba Senior Citizens Club in Queensland, Australia, she started learning tap in her senior years. Hesitant at first, not at all sure that she could do it, Marcella found – much to her delight – that she could, and she loved it!

As much as she cherishes her three daughters, six grandchildren, and ten great-grand-children, tap is something she would never want to give up. Marcella’s philosophy is terrific; you’re only as young as you feel within yourself. Agreed!
