Scoil Acla - Dance Workshops

We are proud to mention that our dance workshop is given by ‘one of our own’ Maria O’Connor.
Maria commenced dancing with the O’Connor School of Irish Dancing. She won a regional championship (Connaught), and went on to compete at national and international levels. She has participated professionally in Lord of the Dance, (European tour), Magic of the Dance, (European and Asian tour) and Gael Force (America and Asia tour). She is currently taking amasters degree in Ethnochoreology, - focusing on world dance and its interaction with cultures. This dance workshop is suitable for all age groups and it is a nice mix of traditional dance steps and as well as contemporary steps with an introduction to performance choreography.
