Students learn the traditional Irish dance music taught in the traditional Irish way. This method has stood the test of time in Ireland and we find it works very well for us.
Irish step dancing and set dancing taught the way it was taught in Ireland, with respect for the Irish culture and for the fun of the dance itself.
Classes in the Irish language, the oldest vernacular in Europe, Cooking and Irish crafts like knitting and crochet, Singing and poetry too.
If you would like to buy something special for a child for the holiday season, how about giving them the gift of music and dance?

For nearly 50 years, St. Louis Irish Arts has connected our city with the music and dance traditions of Ireland. We have responded to the pandemic by switching to virtual camps, online recitals, and outdoor lessons. But much of operating funds come from the big, in-person concerts, competitions, and other fundraisers that we can't do during COVID, so we need your support. Please help us survive the pandemic by supporting St. Louis Irish Arts on this Giving Tuesday!
Read the following message about the 2021 All-Ireland Fleadh. The Fleadh as we know it has been cancelled for 2021, as a result of the Covid 19 pandemic. It will be replaced by the FleadhFest. More information is contained in the link.

Zoom will be alive with Irish music, song and dance from students and teachers all around St. Louis as well as some highly acclaimed guest performers, instructors and some old favorites, too.
