In this 3 week class dancers will learn the basics of Irish Dance. Over the three weeks learners will be able to incorporate the basics and building blocks into Irish Step Dances. It's great physical activity and exercise!

Class experience

My goal is that each learner will gain appreciation for Irish Dance and master the basics with the opportunity to advance to a higher level.
I have been teaching Irish Dance to children ages 3 and older for 38 years.  I am certified through our teacher organization in Ireland and am a member of the Irish Dance Teachers Association of Mid-America and the Irish Dance Teachers Association of North America.

Dancers are encouraged to have a water bottle on hand to stay hydrated during class.  A large space is not necessary for class however the area should be free from any items on the floor or furniture which may be an obstacle.  

The class teaches proper technique for Traditional Irish Dances.  In addition, dancers will learn coordination, poise, movement and rhythm with emphasis on the basic style and characteristics which make Irish Dance a unique art form.  Irish Dance is full of energy with jumps, kicks and skips.  This dance style uses rapid footwork with crossed feet keeping to the rhythm of Irish music.  Age appropriate activities are included to engage the dancers.  Shaping the talents and values of children and young adults and teaching the importance of self achievement provide Peggy with the rewards she seeks as an Irish Dance Instructor.  Dancers will benefit from the many wonderful health benefits of Irish Dance.....
