About Us:

The Kerry School of Irish Dance was established in Jan 2001 by Michelle Tebbutt and is based in Northampton UK

The School is open to all children of all ages and abilities.

We hold 2 classes each week based in Wootton Northampton

We currently have dancers from the age of 5 up to the senior dancers whose ages range up to 24.

We take part in Feisanna every month and belong to the association CAID.

As well as open Feis we also have annual class feis and take part in many exhibitions and displays.

Once a year we have our Annual National Championships which take place in November and are usually held over a full weekend at a Holiday Park resort. This is a massive affair with schools taking part from all over the globe.

We also have a troupe of dancers that perform on the stage and our first show “Kicking up a storm” raised the roof at The Spinney Hill Theatre here in Northampton. We are constantly looking for talented dancers to join the troupe.

 

Traditional Irish step Dancing is the main priority but we also like to add the modern aspect when taking part in shows, displays etc.

 

The principal Teacher is a qualified first aider and certificates are available on request.

 

The school promotes Irish Step Dancing and encourages all pupils to be friendly and work together as a team. .
