Blues Dance Workshop

On Saturday 18 July, we're hosting an intimate 3-hour workshop bringing together teachers and dancers from different Blues communities across the island.

The idea is simple: to create an exchange between the different Blues scenes around the country. Each community develops its own perspectives, influences, and ways of approaching Blues dancing, and there's always something we can learn from one another. This workshop is an opportunity to share ideas, discover new approaches, and connect with dancers from across Ireland.
