Workshop: Dance, Sat 17.5. at 11:15

The dance workshop will focus on the social group form of Irish dance, the Ceili. Mark Hennessey will teach the figures and steps, helping beginners to get to grips with the style, but also giving technical tips and challenges for those who have done Irish dancing before.

The skill level of the group is determined by the participants and everyone is welcome! You can participate on your own or with a friend, no need for a partner. There is no age limit, but children have their own class at 10am, so this class is recommended for teenagers (14 years old) up to seniors. In Ireland, these group dances are danced at all kinds of family parties and pubs. After the dance class you can continue dancing on the Session Trail e.g. on the lower level of Tullintori from 13-15 with live musicians (the teacher Mark also dances there).
