Lessons

In 2024, we teach fiddle, flute, uilleann pipes, bodhrán, whistle, harp, folk/trad guitar, songs in Irish, sean nós dance, modern step dance, and ceili introduction. There will also be a grúpa ceoil (trad band), and choir classes. You can read about all our teachers here.

You will receive 1,5 hours of tuition per class per day, and you can choose to sign up for the whole weekend (4,5 hours) or just Saturday and Sunday (3 hours). It is also possible to buy a day pass.
