McHale School of Irish Dance (MD)
From their website [1]:
The McHale School of Irish Dance has been teaching Traditional Irish Dancing in Baltimore for over 25 years. The school started with adult Ceili and set classes, later classes grew to adult step dancing and children’s step dancing. About twelve years ago in an effort to cut back and make less more, it was decided to only teach the children’s step classes. Today classes are stronger than ever. Traditional steps, group dances, and specialty choreographies are the school's focus. Our School is certified by An Coimisiun le Rinci Gaelacha (Irish Dancing Commission) Dublin, Ireland.
Our school mission is to teach Traditional Irish Step Dancing in a productive environment with a focus on the student's self-worth. We strive to provide a positive growth experience for the student while he or she takes part in an activity that he or she enjoys. We support all students in their efforts should they decided to compete, perform, or simply dance for recreation. Learning to dance at our school is not about pressure, the fuss and muss of extravagant dresses or wigs, or even competitions. Dance at McHale School of Irish Dance is about the individual journey and where one wants to take their Irish Dance experience!
