Join US for a free IRISH DANCE TRIAL CLASS FOR CHILDREN ON SUNDAY,
January 26, 2020 from 4-5pm. CHILDREN WILL LEARN THE BASICS OF IRISH
DANCE FORM, technique, and some DANCE STEPS FROM OUR CERTIFIED
TEACHERS. CHILDREN AGES 4-18 are welcome._JANUARY 2020 OPEN HOUSE
TRIAL CLASS:
_
* January 26, 4:00-5:00pm
After the trial class, families are invited to enroll their children
in classes. Classes commence Sunday, February 2, 2020.
We work with each new family to find a suitable class for their child
- based on their age and ability. Currently, we offer a special class
for our youngest beginners from 3:30-4:15pm on Sundays. Older children
and youth attend class from 4:00-5:00pm on Sundays. As children
progress, they are invited by a teacher to extend their class time by
30 minutes to attend "Beginner Boosters" class and learn more
difficult choreography (attending from 4:00-5:30pm). We staff our
classes to maintain a low student-teacher ratio and often break into
smaller groups for more focused work with a teacher.
WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE TRIAL CLASS: The Trial Class includes a
meet-and-greet with instructors, a mini introductory dance class,
information about how to enroll in classes, and time for Q&A about the
McTeggart Irish Dancers and Irish dancing in general. For the free
class, children should wear comfortable, non-binding clothes (modest
athletic shorts are preferred), and thick socks on their feet. If they
own ballet slippers or jazz shoes, they are welcome to wear them, but
there is no need to make a special purchase.
ENROLLING & CLASS COSTS: Enrollment is easy. There is a one-time
registration fee of $25 when you first join the school, and then
families make two separate monthly payments which total $60/month. We
provide information about enrollment - including classes, locations,
tuition and fees - when we meet you at the Trial Class.
OTHER COSTS: Beyond classes, students have opportunities to perform
and compete. Performances and competitions are entirely optional. We
provide a consignment shoe closet for beginner families to buy used
shoes, and our beginner costume is a simple black skirt and white
blouse - very affordable. There is no cost to the child to participate
in performances; that's a free value-add for our students. To pay for
the facility for our annual recital, we do charge admission fees for
tickets ($6 to $8 per ticket). As a child progresses and wants to
participate in competition, there are competition entry fees and
either rental fees or purchase costs for Irish dance costumes. But,
that's a ways down the road! For beginners, we keep costs low and want
to make Irish dancing as accessible as possible.
