Teamwork - We inspire our students to support and build up one another, creating a team-oriented community of people who are passionate about Irish dance.
-
Tradition - Our programs are rooted in a rich tradition of celebrating Irish dance, music and culture.
IRISH DANCE IS FOR EVERYONE.
-
For young kids: Irish dance helps develop motor skills, promotes teamwork and builds confidence.
-
For school ages: Irish dance is perfect for motivated students who want to both learn an amazing art form and be challenged athletically (Irish dance has also proven extremely valuable for students to stand out on their college apps!).
-
For adults: learning Irish dance is a great way to work out, learn a cultural art form and make new friends.
Our community comes together during our annual Spring Showcase, in which dancers from all of our full-year classes have the opportunity to participate.
