Beginner Irish Step

About the Class

This class is beginner level and will include a combination of Irish softshoe, hardshoe, and old-style sean nós dancing to traditional music. Check the class calendar before you sign up! This class alternates between Beginner and Intermediate levels on alternating weeks. For Beginner level, no dance experience or special shoes required! Some Irish dance experience is requested for Intermediate level. No experience is needed to experence this Beginner Irish dance class! Wear clothes you can move comfortably and confidently in. Leggings, sweatpants, t-shirts, and any workout clothes work great. Bare feet or dance socks are ideal footwear.  No need to buy Irish dance shoes (unless you want to!); students should bring socks or slippers/jazz shoes as well as taps or firm leather-soled shoes (like men's dress shoes; they must be clean and not used for outdoor wear) - or a pair of dance sneakers, which will work for both. Please bring water! Our class registration system requires a credit or debit card to sign up. If this creates a hardship, please email info@hburgdancecoop.org to discuss the specifics of your situation. We will work with you on a solution that is supportive.
