Explore some close-to-the-ground rhythms of beginner Irish step dance with acclaimed dancer and instructor Kevin Doyle as you will learn some steps of the jigs and reels that his mother brought with her from County Roscommon. The classes are designed to be low impact and lots of fun. Please wear loose, comfortable clothing. No special shoes are need for these continuing beginner level classes. We hope to see you on the dance floor!

Kevin Doyle is a National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Fellow. He achieved this highest honor awarded to an American traditional artist as a dancer devoted to and inspired by steps brought to the United States by his Irish born mother in the the 1930s. A lifelong dancer and performer, Kevin was a U.S. Champion Irish step dancer in his early competitive years, and has been entertaining audiences ever since with his traditional style of “close to the ground” rhythms and intricate foot work as an artist, a choreographer, producer, and teacher. He was a long-time member of Pendragon and currently leads Kevin Doyle’s Roscommon Soles while being a guest dancer with several internationally-known Irish groups. Visit www.kevindoyledance.com
