Irish Dance Classes in Edmonton
A School of Irish Dance Rooted in Tradition

We welcome:
- Beginners of all ages
- Boys and girls starting at age 5
- Junior and senior dancers
- Adults looking for a fun and fitness-focused class
Our dance studio serves families across Edmonton AB, Fort Saskatchewan, and surrounding Alberta communities.
Our Irish Dance Class Levels
Beginner/Advanced Beginner classes are perfect for young kids and beginners learning the foundations of Irish dance. Students build coordination, memory, rhythm, and confidence in a fun and encouraging setting.
Our Novice/Prizewinner classes are best for dancers who have developed their foundational skills and are ready to refine technique, improve stamina, and grow their performance ability.
Prelim/Open Championship classes are designed for students who want to compete in Irish Feis. These classes focus on strength, endurance, technique, and stage presence.
Not every dancer wants to compete. Our recreational classes focus on group dance, performances, and community events while still building strong technical skills and friendships.
Our adult Irish dance lessons are welcoming, beginner-friendly, and focused on fitness and fun. No prior experience is required. Adults can learn, move, and build confidence in a supportive environment.
More Than Just Dance
At Shamrock School of Irish Dance, students gain more than steps and routines.
They build:
- Confidence
- Discipline
- Friendships
- Teamwork
- A strong work ethic
Throughout the year, dancers have opportunities to perform at local events, participate in competitions if they choose, and grow within a supportive dance family.
