Beginner (Level I): All students who are new or have had 1-2 yr. experience in Irish dance will be placed in this class. Basic technique is taught and is the main focus throughout the year. Students will learn the beginner jig and reel.

Advanced Beginner (Level  II):  Dancers will learn more challenging soft shoe steps in the reel and slip jig. Once posture and correct form are achieved, students will learn the traditional hornpipe in hard shoes. Students will develop a daily practicing routine to utilize outside of class.

Intermediate (Level III) Dancers will learn more challenging dances in hard and soft shoe.  Additional team dances will be taught. Students will be encouraged to excel in their knowledge of form, posture and rhythm.

Novice (Level IV): Novice dancers will further advance in the complexity of the steps in their dances, including the jig, reel and slip jig and will learn different hard shoe timings in the slow hornpipe, slow treble jig and traditional set.

Advanced (Level V): These levels demand a different type of training; more time is dedicated to stamina and set dances. Students will demonstrate the most advanced steps and will serve as an example of excellence to audiences and younger students.
