Does Irish music get your feet tapping? This is your opportunity to get up and dance. Set dances are the traditional social dances of Ireland, and are so much fun to dance.

No experience necessary. Suitable for beginners and experienced alike. You just need a bit of coordination, a sense of fun, and some energy. (This is not Irish step dancing, not Riverdance!) You can come along without a partner, there will always be someone to dance with.

Adults.  And age 10 upwards welcome.  Under 16's only if accompanied by an adult. We recommend smooth-soled shoes if you have them.

Workshops: Saturday 13th (10am - 4pm) and Sunday 14th (11.30am - 1.30pm) April
Ceili: Saturday 13th April (7.30 - 10.30pm)

Experienced teacher Helen Stonehouse will guide you through the moves and figures. There are 2 workshops on Saturday and 1 on Sunday.

On Saturday evening we have a Ceili (kay-lee) when we'll do some of what you learnt in the workshops plus some more Irish ceili dances. Anyone is welcome to the Ceili without having been to the workshops.

Our amazing Round The House Ceili Band will be playing all the jigs and reels and polkas for us throughout the weekend.

Good music, fun and friends.
