  Episode 146: Andrew Nemr - Answering The Call

  Sep 2, 20261h 46m

  What happens when tap dance is understood not simply as a collection of steps, but as a language carrying identity, memory, values and relationships across generations? In this episode of the Tap Love Tour Podcast, Travis Knights sits down with tap dancer, educator, author and trained minister Andrew Nemr for a wide-ranging conversation about tradition, spirituality, teaching and what it means to inherit an art form. Andrew reflects on his mentorship with Gregory Hines, his work preserving tap history, and the realization that oral traditions ultimately aren’t just about preserving material, they’re about preserving relationships between people. This is a conversation about tap dance, but also about culture, faith, inheritance, belonging and the responsibility that comes with carrying something forward.
