CLASSES

Please Contact Teacher for Your Area Before Registering

Beginner

Our classes are offered for both boys and girls ages 4 and up and consist of both step and Ceili dances. Our beginner class is an introduction to Irish dance technique focusing on posture, pointed toes, hops, skips, balance and musicality. As a beginner, your dancer will learn the basic steps of the Jig and may progress into the Reel.

Intermediate

Our intermediate and advanced intermediate classes will continue to focus on technique as well as perfecting the basic movements learned as a beginner. Your dancer will continue to learn more advanced steps of the Jig, Reel and will progress onto Slip Jig. Once your dancer has become proficient in the light shoe dances, hard shoe dances such as the Hornpipe and Treble Jig will be introduced. It will be your teacher’s discretion when hard shoes can be purchased for you dancer.

Advanced

Our advanced classes will continue to perfect technique with emphasis on posture, foot placement, and proper execution of steps. Our advanced dancers will continue to learn more advanced steps of the Jig, Reel, Slip Jig, Treble Jig, and Hornpipe. Traditional and Non-Traditional set pieces will also be introduced. As an advanced dancer, you can expect to learn a few steps from Riverdance and Lord of the Dance!
