About Our Irish Dance Classes
Irish dancing is fun, energetic, and highly aerobic. 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.

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.
