We’re less than a week away from kicking off the 2016-2017 dance school year and we would love it if you gave Irish dance classes in Lexington and Bluegrass Ceili Academy a try!
Join us on Monday evenings — at 6 p.m. for children and 7 p.m. for adults — at Artworks at the Carver School, an arts and cultural community center run by Lexington’s Parks and Recreation department.
Classes are held at the Carver School, 522 Patterson Street in downtown Lexington. PLEASE NOTE: Â There is road construction in the immediate area of the Carver School right now, but you can access the parking lot from Dunaway Street, off of Pine Street.Â
Joining our Irish dance classes in Lexington
Our classes will focus on the basic techniques of Irish dancing, emphasizing group — known as “ceili” — dancing. Whether it’s dances for 2, 3, 4, 8 or 16 people, you’ll learn some great original and traditional group choreographies.
No previous dance experience is necessary. Students with previous dance or Irish dance experience are welcome.
