Adult Programming – Rising Tide Irish Dance Academy

At Rising Tide we’re excited to offer Irish dance programming for adults! As part of our mission to build a community of passionate and skilled Irish dancers, we feel it’s important to provide dancers of all ages with the opportunity to learn and practice dance.

Irish dancing is an excellent source of exercise in addition to being an enriching cultural activity and a technical dance form. At Rising Tide, all adult dancers are exposed to solo, ceili and performance dancing and can choose between one of two classes depending on their skill and experience: Adult Beginner or Adult Advanced.

ADULT BEGINNER

A high energy class for adults with minimal or no experience in Irish dance. This class focuses on fitness and fun. Students will learn the basics of technique, musicality & skills for Irish dance. Using the technique and skills learned, students will practice introductory steps and ceili (team) dances.

ADULT ADVANCED

The perfect class for non-competitive adult Irish dancers. This class is focused on practicing Irish dance skills and technique, learning and perfecting new steps, performance numbers and ceili (team) dances. This class is best suited for dancers with several years of Irish dance experience.
