Online - Level 4 - Sean nÓs Reels from Brenda O'Callaghan
Adult Classes
Join "Zoom with Annette" every Tuesday for 5 consecutive weeks.
Level 4 - for those with a good background in Irish step dancing, where many movements will already be known, or easily picked up and we will work on building repertoire.
Annette will teach a series of reel steps given to her by Brenda O'Callaghan of Sligo. Brenda collected these steps from the who's who of sean nós dance; Mick Mulkerrin, Padraig O'hOipeachain, Brian Cunningham, Shane Creed and some she created herself.
Part of the beauty of this living tradition is that the steps continue to be passed on from one generation to the next.
