Ballet, Hip Hop and which - tap or jazz?

My daughter (10 years old) took ballet and tap combo classes for 4 years when she was younger, then took two years off from dance for other activities. She's going back to a new studio this year and really wants to take Hip Hop, and I told her she must take ballet if she's going to dance at all. That leaves the third class - would you recommend tap or jazz? Right now it's a hobby, but she has expressed some interest in competition or school dance team in the future.

She's torn, I could go either way, the dance director said either is fine, but we just want to decide!

Personally I would do tap because that's my best but if she's interseted in a team she would be more likely to take jazz. Jazz is a wider selection in things to do then tap is. If she's torn I would say do jazz becuase most girls by their teens drop tap becauses if you don't get it or not into it it's not much fun so they will stop. Jazz is a bigger area in doing things. She will find that jazz is more popular then tap. Then in competitions jazz is better understood then tap is. Trust me doing tap solos/duos and groups is harder then in jazz.

So I (a girl a few years older) would recomend jazz.

Good Luck in your search
