Irish Set Dance - (Advanced) Beginner Series 
This December, we’re excited to offer a three-week series focused on the Cashel Set!  The Cashel is a lively 6-figure set from County Tipperary, danced primarily to slides/polkas.  It is one of our absolute favorites!  We anticipate dancing an additional set or two during the class as well.
 
The series will be taught at an advanced beginner level.  We will be doing lots of repetition and review, and aim to teach at a slow, accessible pace.  However, all participants should have a general understanding of set dance basics prior to participating in the class.
 
Interested but not sure if you have enough experience to participate in this class?  Send us an email and we will help you decide.  We’d love you to join us!
 
What: Three-week advanced beginner class, with focus on the Cashel Set
When: December 1st, 8th, and 15th from 7-9pm
Where: Middleton, near the Pheasant Branch Conservancy
 
A suggested donation of $30 contributes to room and band fees for Madison Irish Set Dance events, but no one will be excluded due to inability to pay.  As part of the class fee, class participants will be admitted to a future monthly set dance free of charge.
 
Please email ...@gmail.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" style="color:#196ad4; text-decoration:underline" target="_blank" ymailto="mailto:Madi...@gmail.com">Madi...@gmail.com to register.  Class size will be limited, so register soon!

Note:  Brand new to set dancing and looking for a Set Dance Basics class?  Stay tuned!  We plan to repeat the beginner basics series again in 2023 and would be thrilled to have you with us.  Until then, join us at the Wil-Mar Neighborhood Center for our monthly dances with live music!
