2022 Summer 1 | Sean-nós | Endurance
intro
Endurance – 15-30 min (depending on the style/material)
Our Endurance sessions will vary in length depending on the style of dance and material. I will create a playlist of tunes/dances that we will dance at full tempo. You can follow along with the specific dance or you can just dance to the music with the steps you have. Think of this as a full rehearsal of material or session dancing. The idea is to build up your endurance as if you were on stage dancing a full performance.

2022 Summer 1 | Old-Style | Woodsheds
intro
A summer of old-style step dance!
Woodshed – 25 min
Woodshedding is back! Woodshedding is a term musicians use when referring to practicing and working on specific parts of a tune. We will be doing this with our dancing.
The woodshedding sessions focus on one step or technique from class. We will drill material from class and work on tone, tenquice and speed. You can attend live or recorded. Each of these sessions will be good practice sessions to accompany your class. Over the years I have found that the biggest challenge for students is practicing. This is why I have decided to offer guided practice. My hope is to help you build the habit of practicing by offering accountability and videos to guide you. Over time as you build this habit you may find yourself creating your own practicing sessions and developing a daily habit of practice. But that is the future down the road, I will do all the work of planning a daily practice.
