Irish dance for fitness and fun with performance and competition opportunities for ages 6 through adult. Dancers learn rhythm and technique in soft shoe dances (similar to ballet), hard shoe dances (similar to tap) and Ceili dances (similar to square dance), and may perform with the school as the main entertainment at the Celtic Stage at the Alaska Scottish Highland Games and on the Colony Stage at Alaska State Fair as well as at local retirement homes for Christmas and local establishments for St. Patrick’s Day.
Creative & Functional Writing: Creative & Functional Writing is a 10-week workshop or middle and high school, meeting once per week at the Irish Dance studio in the Mayflower Building off Palmer Wasilla Highway, and focusing on one element of writing each week. The syllabus covers creative writing (short stories and poetry), nonfiction writing (simple nonfiction reports, police statements, and technical papers). Topics covered include: the elements of a fictional story, including genre, premise, plot, character, conflict, and voice; as well as the elements of a nonfiction work, including table of contents, paragraph structure and bibliography. Over the course of the class, students will write a fictional short story in 1000 words or less, a short poem, a police statement, as well as a nonfiction paragraph with citations.
