Band in a workshop where they will demonstrate and

Take Irish dance and tap classes with Three-time
World Irish stepdance champion James Devine who
is an expert at fusing Irish dance rhythms with
Tap dance into a style all his own he calls Celtic
Tap. Its characteristic syncopated rhythms
combined with high steps make it a challenge to
perform, but highly entertaining to watch. Bring
your dancing shoes and give it a try!

These classes will include an introduction to
various percussion instruments, including traditional
Irish percussion instruments and its use in all
styles of music. Topics covered will include,
