From the reviews
My daughter has been dancing with Claddagh since she was 4 years old. I was referred by another Claddagh dancer after my daughter showed disinterest in field sports.
I danced with the Claddagh Dance Company for 12 years. In addition to Irish dance instruction I learned the value of hard work, perseverance and teamwork. The friendships I have made through Irish dance will last a lifetime. The teachers at Claddagh foster an environment that empowers dancers to perform at their best.
Irish dance is a aerobic and beautiful sport with a long history. The Claddagh School is the best place to learn and practice this sport. With an emphasis on team competition over individuals, the school encourages friendship and camaraderie among the dancers and their families.
My daughter has danced with Claddagh for almost 8 years. In her time with Maire and her other teachers, she has developed not only as a dancer, but as a person. She has learned discipline, work ethic, determination and a sense of confidence from her experience performing and competing at Claddagh.
Your first ballet class at Claddagh Dance Company - Ventura Dance Lessons & Classes
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
