Trad Culture is a course that provides an excellent introduction into the world of Irish Music, Dance & Culture in a fun and engaging manner. Classes are aimed at young children (ages 4+) with no previous experience in music or dance required.
The course, created and developed by Trinity College Dublin graduate/lecturer Mark Hennessey, is based on a series of engaging games, exercises and activities that will facilitate them to learn the basics of Irish dancing, music fundamentals (including how to read sheet music), as well as a general introduction to Irish instruments, tunes and rhythms.
The course is currently available in Ireland various locations around Europe. Short terms and one off workshops to celebrate occasions such as St. Patrick’s Day & Seachtain na Gaeilge are available (as well as events for adults too!).
The course is also available for school/dance teachers who may wish to use it on the curriculum in their school, academy or social group. All workbooks, music, lesson plans and other resources are provided with teacher training sessions also available.
If you are interested in joining a class or would like to become a Trad Culture teacher yourself, please get in touch below. I would love to hear from you!
