OREGON Irish Dance ACADEMY

We love to perform! Students are never pressured or required to perform at OIDA, but for those who are interested in performance Irish Dance, we are happy to offer our Performance Team program! When the dance instructors feel a dancer has the appropriate mentality and has learned enough dance moves and patterns, that dancer will be invited to join the Performance Team. Performance Team dancers take two classes per week, their Performance Team class and their Level Class. They continue to progress their individual level patterns in their Level Class, and they learn group performance routines in their Performance Team class. Performance Team dancers are required to have Irish light shoes, Irish heavy shoes, and white bubble socks, and Team dancers also receive a team bag and performance outfit. Team classes run year-round, with performance opportunities throughout the season, including concerts, parades, community events, recitals, and more!
