Learn To Jig is the perfect way to discover the joy of Irish dance. We offer two different experiences; a 90 minute masterclass which is great for a fun activity giving that taster session; and our 8 week programme, ideal for mastering the basics over a 2 month period.
In both experiences our qualified instructors will guide you through the basics of this unique culture belonging to Ireland.
From toddlers to grandparents, beginners to experts, each of our classes are adapted to suit your group. ​
​
Our mission is to offer more people the chance to Irish Dance.
About Us
Learn To Jig was established by our founder Sophie, who is passionate about sharing her love of Irish Dancing. Becoming a dance teacher & opening her own school, Sophie would often hear from parents how they wished they'd had "the chance to dance" when they were younger. Sophie saw an opportunity to bring Irish Dancing to older generations & started offering Adult Irish Dance classes. They were a huge success, and to date have taught over 200 adults the art of Irish Dancing.​
​
Learn To Jig was created with this in mind- offering more people the chance to Irish Dance.
