Irish classes are now offered at both Huguenot & Chital Locations. OUR PHILOSOPHYWe pride ourselves in giving students the opportunity to learn Irish dance in a positive, fun, and professional environment. Our goal is to provide students with the proper knowledge and training that will allow them to develop their technique and skills as well as, find the unique dance inside of them. Students are expected to maintain a disciplined attitude in class, but also enjoy their time in the classroom. It is important to remember that our students represent not only the school, but the Irish dancing tradition. Since our Irish program is made up of a diverse group of students we feel it is important that we respect and encourage students at all ages, levels, and abilities. Many of our students enjoy Irish dance as a recreation while others choose a more competitive route; regardless of the path we aim to treat each student equally and nurture their growth in Irish dance.
