Wake-up Session: Riverdance

In this virtual workshop you will learn the basics of Irish dance, similar to the style of Riverdance. We will also have a look at the old style dance of Sean Nós, so have a sweeping brush at the ready as Sandra teaches you the ‘Brush Dance’. No specific shoes are necessary. Just comfy clothes, comfy shoes and a BIG bottle of water!
