About CeilidhKids Sessions
CeilidhKids sessions are fun family events where everyone dances, claps, and marches together. Children learn rhythm, movement, confidence, and social skills, while adults help guide younger children.
We dance to recordings of top bands - or sometimes to an accordion player - and the emphasis is on fun and staying within your child’s comfort zone. Your child doesn’t even have to let go of your hand if they don’t want to!
All ages are welcome, Sessions tend to be aimed at families with children aged 3 and upwards because they get most out of it, so younger ones may find it all a bit beyond them. But if you want to come, we’re happy to have you. Even if you are so small you have to be carried.
Dress is casual: T shirts, fancy dress, kilts, party dresses and tracksuits are all popular. Soft shoes are useful though -
plimsolls are great, and ballet shoes are even better.
Contact Caroline Brockbank or Katy Gray to be added to the mailing list and be the first to know about any opportunities
