From their website [1]:

Our school joined the World Irish Dance Association (WIDA) a number of years ago and now adhere to their regulations regarding teaching and competing. Classes are an hour long and are full of activity. In an Irish Dance class, your dancer will learn steps to solo dances and group dances (called Ceilis), rhythm, and the Irish language. Irish Dance is much more than dance and each dancer will be challenged in many ways. The best part of Irish Dance is that at the end of a class you have something to show someone. It is progressive and each class brings you to a higher level. Your dancer will feel fulfilled and will enjoy sharing what they learned. I think those that love Irish, love it because of the sense of accomplishment they feel. There is always a clear path to what they will learn next.

Back in 2009, we decided that we no longer wanted to spend all of our time, effort, and money to dance for one judge in a competition. Instead, we decided to spend some of our time, effort, and money to dance for many. So, we got serious about performing and created The Northern Lights Irish Dancers.

The Northern Lights dancers love to perform! Our desire is to share our love of Irish dancing with a traditional show, or a full-length theatrical performance. We cater to each event and can give you a show of 30 minutes minimum, to as long as you need.
