Get your tap shoes on—May 25 is National Tap Dance Day! Founded in 1989 to honor the birthday of tap legend Bill “Bojangles” Robinson, the day is celebrated throughout the country with master classes, performances and, of course, jam sessions.

Justin Tatman, a certified athletic trainer who has worked with the Miami Dolphins and top-level college endurance athletes, explains that the sports world breaks up the year into four stages: During the post-season athletes take time for recovery; in the off-season they focus on building general muscle mass and strength; and in the pre-season strength-building becomes specific to their sport. This all prepares them for in-season, where they are competing at a high level and any training they do simply maintains the strength they’ve built.
