Irish Dancing Classes: The most inspirational of all
Irish dancing is fun, energetic and highly aerobic. It’s also one of the most beautiful and inspiring dance styles on earth. We’ll get you started in this wonderful Irish tradition that mesmerized the world through the River Dance performances. Beginning level students will learn the basic jig and reel steps and put them together into simple solo and ceili (group) dances. Intermediate level students will include more complicated patterning and preparations for hard shoe.
Class Attire
Comfortable dance attire and Ghillies for ladies, jazz shoe for men.

Meet Your Irish Dance Teacher
"Just as in all excellent schools, the quality of the teacher makes all the difference."

Janelle Jones
"Janelle is a wonderful instructor and caters to all of the experience levels in the class. She makes you feel at ease and that Irish dance is meant to be enjoyable. I had so much fun." Jennifer M.
What to look for in an Irish dancing class!
- Look for non-competitive Irish dance classes where everyone is friendly and you'll always feel welcome.
- You'll want an Irish dancing class where the teacher understands that the pace of the class has to be good for you.
- Insist on a dance studio with specially designed 'sprung' wood floors that 'give' to protect your feet and ankles. Avoid studios with regular wood floors and heaven forbid, run away from dance studios with concrete floors.
- Patronize schools with accommodating school policies like a 100% money back guarantee if you don't like your class for any reason.
- Most importantly look for a school that has expert dance teachers who know how to give you personalized attention ad you'll learn faster.

What do adult students say about this school?
A pair of Ghillies, a special shoe for Irish and Scottish dancing. It laces along the instep and has no tongue, especially those used for Scottish country dancing.
Besides Irish Dancing classes, we offer several other dance classes for adults including Ballet, Jazz, Contemporary, Irish, Flamenco, and Tap. Read a summary description of these classes on our Adult Dance Program page.
