“Jive with Senan” Classes are now all over for the summer months. What a great winter of dancing for the beginners and last years improvers. I will be posting dances that we are going to over the summer, on our WhatsApp page. This is where people move across from the classes into actual dances to live music. You don't have to do them all, but try to do one or two of them to boost the self confidence while in the company of other class members. Thanks so much for coming to the classes all winter and will be starting back the end Sept, start October. Take care, Senan.
Classes start in Jan. 2026 and continue to April 2026.
All classes are €10 per person
Hi, my name is Senan Murphy, from Kilrush in Co. Clare. I run a beginner
Jiving & Social dance class for people that have struggled to learn
in the past. I cover the basic forms of the dance, like people do at a
wedding or a local dance.
In each class, the first weeks are for
learning the individual parts of that dance and slowly putting them
together to form the complete dance. As we dance to slower music at the
early stage of learning, it gives the student more time to work on the foot work. After Christmas, it is all dancing every night, building
confidence, familiarity, speed and fitness, from dancing with the other
class members.
Because it is a slow moving class, it is easier to
keep up. Also if you miss a night or two, it is no bother to catch up,
or go to one of the other class nights instead. It is all designed for the beginner to succeed.
