WORKSHOPS, DANCE CAMPS & SPECIAL CLASSES

Nov 2, 3 and 5  - Level Up Workshop
If you leveled up or out of any of your dances at CRN Regionals you will need to sign up for this workshop to begin the work on your new steps.  This would also be ideal if you have steps that are still new to you or you have a little extra practice needed  The schedule below is subject to change based on sign ups.

Nationals is only 4 months away and we have a lot of planned days off from studio classes due to holidays coming up.  If you plan on going to Nationals and need to polish up your steps or learn new material now is the time to do it.  We won’t spending a ton of time  teaching solos individually in group classes.

Sessions are $45 each per dancer, a 20% discount will be applied at checkout for those dancers that register for 3 or more sessions.

SESSIONS

Extra Practice Sessions are available at the Dayton Studio.  There is room for up to 5 dancers in each session.  The trick is that this system currently only allows me to have 1 dancer per session. 

 

 So….If you click on the link you will see there are 5 sets of sessions, so if someone has filled the spot you want, or you have multiple dancers in your family taking part, then you just need to click on the other session sets to add your additional dancers or join the set of your choice.


Book your spots now!

 

 


McGovern Irish Dance Handbook
