May the wind be always at your back.
May the sun shine warm upon your face;
the rains fall soft upon your fields
and until we meet again
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Irish Traditional Solo Dance for Adults – Level Three – Online
An event every week that begins at 2:00 pm on Tuesday, repeating until March 7, 2023
Each Tuesday beginning 7 February for 5 weeks
Online – Level 3 – King of the Fairies (Frankie Roddy Version)
Level 3 – for those who have been dancing a while and are ready to start memorising longer and more complicated routines.
Annette will teach a set dance in hornpipe time called the “King of the Fairies” – the Frankie Roddy version, given to her by Joe McGuiggan. This version has not previously been taught online. You can watch Annette dance the May Allen version of the dance on the home page of this website – she accompanies herself on piano too!
There can be many versions of a set dance, each one from a different dancing master and all danced to the same tune. Dancers regularly dance two versions of a “set dance” back to back, which is twice through the tune.
Part of the beauty of this living tradition is that the steps continue to be passed on from one generation to the next.
