Children's
Classes
 Beginner
classes are offered to children ages 5 and older. Dancers
at the Beginner level will attend class once a week for
one hour. Beginners are taught the basics of Irish step
dancing, including drills and exercises to develop their
form. Dancers will be taught both traditional and original
solo material created for the beginner level dancer.
The activity of the class will include foot positioning,
muscle development, exercises and short drills to help
them understand key dance moves. Repetition is a key factor
at the beginning level.
Dancers in their first year with Glencastle are invited
to participate in parades and competitions as well as
Milwaukee Irish Fest. A costume is needed for competitions
and performances.
Beyond the Beginner level, instructors will continue to
enforce the basics while developing and teaching more
difficult and challenging drills, exercises, movements
and steps. Dancers participate in parades, performances
and competitions.
Glencastle dancers have competed at regional, national
and world level competitions in both solo and team dancing.

 Our
adult classes are fun and energetic. We structure the
classes for adults of all ages and abilities. The activity
of the class includes both individual and group dancing.
Classes are held one day a week. Besides attending our
classes, our adult dancers are given the opportunity to
compete and perform if they so choose. Many of our adult
dancers also have children in Glencastle and are able
to compete and perform with their child.
Glencastle Adult dancers have competed

Championship and the National Irish Dance Championship.
