Overview

Niall O’Leary, Tuesdays, 4:30pm–5:30pm 

8 weekly sessions beginning April 16

This class will be held in person in the Studio classroom.

Ages 4+ 

Join Niall O’Leary for a class in the traditional Irish form of step dancing! Dancers are taught technique, form, and style, as well as dances such as the reel and the jig. 

Note: This is a soft-shoe dance class, as Irish dancers start with soft shoes before moving onto hard shoe technique. Students should wear comfortable clothes, such as shorts or workout pants and a t-shirt. For footwear, sneakers, ballet shoes, or ghillies are best.
