Reely jiGit

Kingdom Academy’s ‘Reely jiGit’ – Adult Irish Dance & Céilí class is the perfect place to get some exercise, laugh while you do it, and jig your stress away. Whether you're a total beginner or dusting off your hard shoes, you’ll join a welcoming, no-pressure group that’s all about fitness, fun, and freedom.

Why join this class?

As adult Irish dancers ourselves, we know first-hand the benefits of a hop, skip and a jig every now and then. These “strictly adult” dance classes will feature group Céilí dancing that will be sure to take you right back! Progression to heavy shoe can be part of the curriculum based on individual pace and interest. Classes begin with a fun, easy warm up routine to get the pulses going – following onto some basic techniques of Irish dancing & simple steps to build the repertoire. No two classes are the same – expect variety, a touch of nostalgia, and of course… a bit of craic every time!
