There are NO live meetings for this class.  This 4 week class includes instruction for the basic techniques for Irish Dance and the basic Reel.  Instructor, Peggy Cannon, wears color coded clothing to make it easy to follow and learn.  Videos will be posted each week by 12:00 PM EST on Monday.  In each video segment the step will be slowly demonstrated and explained in detail.  Learners will then follow along with the video and do the step faster and eventually with music.  Each week will feature a building block of the Reel and by the end of the 8 weeks learners will build those blocks into a complete Reel step and routine.  Each week learners will be given a challenge to reinforce what they learned during the videos of the week.  Learners are encouraged to share the completion of their challenge in the class room.  Learners are also encouraged to interact with the instructor and classmates weekly by posting videos of their dances and asking questions.
