ABOUT US

We Dance with Our Hearts

Rince na hÉireann Darwin Irish Dance Association strives to encourage and develop interest in Irish Dance through engaging dance classes, regular performances, annual exams, competitions, specialist developmental programs and social events; to provide a supportive environment that fosters rewarding dance experiences for dancers and their families; to encourage the development of life-skills such as loyalty, commitment, discipline, leadership and working as a team-member and to do other such things which the Association agrees will further the objectives of the Association.

OUR SCHOOL

Rince na hÉireann Darwin Irish Dance Association holds Irish Dance classes for anyone over three years of age.

Classes are divided both by age and ability level and are held on Saturday from 9am to 2 pm. Dancers will first learn in 'soft-shoe', then progress to 'hard-shoe' as they become more skilled.

All classes are taught by experienced and qualified teachers with a passion for Irish Dance. Check out our classes for more information about our teaching team!

We teach a wide range of Irish dances, including group dances (Ceili), traditional step dances and modern choreography for performance.
