This class is for ages 4 and Up who have never done Irish Dance.  Dancers who are beginning Irish Dance take this class.  We teach the basics and dancers learn their two softshoe dances.  They learn how to dance to the beat and stay on time to the music. 

This class is for dancers who have advanced past the Beginner 1 level.   This is an extended half hour past our Beginner 1 Class in which we focus on Hard Shoe dances. Teacher's Discretion 

Dancer learns four softshoe dances and begins the basics in hardshoe including the Treble Jig.  Dancers also may start competing at this level. 

A two hour class for dancers who have advanced past the Beginner 2 level.  Teacher's Discretion

Dancers begin to learn more advance dances to slower speeds of music.  They will learn their first Traditional Set Dance - St. Patrick's Day!  Dancers will learn to build strength and work on stamina.

A two hour class for our Champion dancers.  Champ Dancers are Avoca's most advance students.  Champ dancers attend at least two solo classes a week.  Teacher's Discretion

Team dancing is group dancing with groups of 4 to 8 dancers.  Dancers make formations and lines, while performing all the same footwork.  

By invitation only.

Adult Basics: This class is offered to any dancer who has no prior Irish dance experience or to any dancer who would like to focus on their basic technique. This class will cover drills and basic steps in soft shoe. Dancers will also begin to learn Basic movements of hard shoe. After the 4 week session, Dancers will move into our  Advanced Adult Class. 

Dancers who attend this class are expected to have fun! We would love to have you volunteer and assist us with any school events. We invite you to perform with the groups when we dance at community events. And some may choose to try their shot at local competition! But ultimately there is no expectation for commitment.
 

​

Advanced  Level: These adults are dancers who have previous experience and/or taken the Adult Basics Class. These dancers will learn both soft shoe in hardshoe advanced dances.  They need to be able to dance two hours for the class and be prepared for the class to move along quickly. 

These adults are expected to support the school, when possible, by performing with other adults during community events. They are also expected to volunteer, when possible, with school events for example, our FEIS that we host annually.  Many of our advanced adults enjoy competing locally or even at our regional championships in November. This extended class will focus on hard shoe.
