Harland Dixon (November 4, 1885 – June 30, 1969) was a Canadian tap dancer known for his inventive and eccentric moves, being especially good at mimicry and use of a cane.
He was especially successful in partnership with Jimmy Doyle with whom he appeared in a series of Broadway musicals, starting with Let George Do It in 1912.
His signature move, which was imitated by others, was to keep his arms stiff by his side while twisting his shoulders.
