Class schedule: Tuesdays, 5-5:30 pm

LEVEL 3 & 4
For our most advanced students (prelim and open champs). Dancers will train and master all soft shoe (reel/slip jig) and all hard shoe (treble jig/hornpipe) dances. This is a very challenging level and requires dedication and commitment to practicing both in the studio and at home.
Class schedule: Tuesdays & Thursdays, 6:30-8:30 pm.. (Start and end times are subject to change depending on training.)
DRILLS, WORKSHOPS, PRIVATE LESSONS & MINI-SESSIONS
Dancers will be evaluated and placed in the appropriate class for which the student is best suited.
Competition level is not always the deciding factor for class levels.
Drills: Level 3 & 4 dancers are invited to hone their skills at our fun-yet-challenging Drills classes on Mondays from 6::45-8:45 pm. Level 2 students are invited at teacher's discretion.
Workshops: These intensives are scheduled periodically throughout the year, usually leading up to major competitions and events.
Private lessons: Sign ups for private lessons are available the last Friday of each month. (Level 2, 3 & 4 families will be emailed the booking link with instructions.)
