About the school...

The Redmond School of Irish Dancing with over 80 dancers taking lessons weekly have established themselves as the main Irish Dancing group in the Netherlands.

The classes are separated into different age groups and levels.

The children's beginners classes are for children from 4 years to 12 years of age. In these lessons the children are taught dancing in a slow pace with fun the main agenda. Once the children learn all 4 basic dances they then move on to the next group where they will move into hard shoes and the dancing is taken at a more serious pace.

Adult beginners : This group is taught also the basic dances first , catering for the individual rather than the group ( adults learn at a slower pace to the children and usually need more practise and time to master each dance). The adults also learn in each class ( ceili dancing) which are group dances.  

The school runs a yearly Feis ( dancing competition) where all the dancers from the School are encouraged to participate . They also compete in many competitions on mainland Europe and travel at least once a year to Ireland so the dancers can experience and learn from the wonderful and talented dancers they have there.

The school also organises an annual summercamp. This is a great experience for the dancers who stay for a week long together and dance everyday.

DISPLAYS:

Last but not least the school also has a display group that dance regularly throughout Holland , occasionally dancing with such names as Ronnie Drew and Jim McCann.
