Instruction centers on the fundamentals of traditional Irish dance — timing, body position and footwork. Students work to achieve these fundamentals as they learn the basic steps, then progress to learn beginner reel, light jig, and slip jig steps. Building confidence, social, and team skills, students learn to dance in teams of two, three, four, six, and eight and sixteen. Students learn to dance in unison, developing spatial awareness as they dance the patterns of traditional ceili dances. Hard shoe dancing, popularized by Lord of the Dance, is usually taught to second and third year students. The unique rhythms of hornpipe and double jig music drive the steps and timing of these dances. Students also learn one or more of the Traditional Set Dances…dances designated by the Irish Commission which are dances to the same music and employ the same steps the world over.
