Cross-Cultural Connections is hosting an Irish Dance class the week of St. Patrick’s Day to highlight and support Irish-American communities in the St. Louis area. This workshop will allow both our students possessing Irish heritage as well as those interested in learning more about Irish culture to experience a fun and entertaining way to get involved in Irish culture. This will be a beginner level course accessible to everyone who would like to participate. 

This dance workshop aims to strengthen students’ ability to: 

  • Engage in healthy excellence by taking a low stakes class merging the goals of cultural tradition and exercise movement. 
  • Explore the dance trainings and styles of other cultures. 
  • Instill cultural appreciation strategies in our students, as well as connecting them an off-campus location to further immerse themselves in Irish culture.
