Your family tree can be from anywhere, any religion, any culture; there is always something we can learn that may aid in our own research or simply open our minds to other historical cultures and perspectives.

We meet to do Irish Social dancing, not step dancing. Irish social, also called county , or set dancing, is similar to square and contra dancing. We meet at our tuesday class for practice, and go to dances and parties in the metropolitan area at other times. Our class is part of the City of Fairfax Parks and Recreation Department. You can try a class before making a commitment. Go to ceili308 on Youtube for a portal into videos on set dancing.
