A program that invites special needs children to participate in our Irish Dance classes. All dancers will have the opportunity to be part of a year round dance program with performance opportunities in our shows, parades and community exhibitions.

​

A judgment free, stare free, safe space for children and families of children with Autism, significant developmental & speech delays, and sensory processing disorder. This class is ideal for children that require additional processing time with plenty of repetition and familiar structure each class. Parents/caregivers are required to be present and participate with their child allowing them to learn at their own pace with a familiar face.

​

Class run time is 45 mins with time allotted at the start and end of each class for dancers to arrive and leave without being rushed. Easy to follow movements and steps grounded in Irish Dance and set to traditional Irish and popular music are taught using a combination of visual & verbal prompts and cues.

​

Dancers from our youth and adult programs will from time to time be present as peer models to allow for an inclusive environment. A limited number of spaces will be available for each class.

​

After registration, please expect an email and phone call from the directors and instructors to learn more about your dancer and how best they will be supported in this program.
