Dance Ireland

I’d walked past this strange glass building before but I went to class there for the first time last night. They are the representative body for dance in Ireland and have all sorts of classes and residencies.
They also do a good line in classes for dilettantes and amateurs, and not just things you might traditionally think of as dance — they do Aikido and Parkour and at some point I’ll find out what Kangoo Power is (sounds scary).
I was there for a NIA class, which is a sort of dance class which blends tai chi, yoga and different types of dance together. They have great purpose built studios, showers and changing rooms and they’re really quite close to the centre of town. My NIA class was 12 euro per go, which is not too pricey considering the facilities.
