Lord Of The Dance : New school in Prague center to offer Irish dancing classes

A new school devoted solely to Irish dancing will soon open its doors in Prague. Lessons at Luas, Irish for speed, are due to start next month. Ahead of the start of the first course, the school’s director, Tereza Loužecká Bachová, invited all those curious about this dancing style to try it out themselves. She spoke to us before the sample lesson, about Irish dancing and why it fascinates her, and when classes will kick off.

“We are opening in September of this year, on the 13th of September.”

Is there a lot of interest in Irish dancing in the Czech Republic, is it something that people really like?

“I think that the interest is increasing because of the shows Lord of the Dance and Riverdance, and lots of dancers would also like to try this style of dancing, so yes, there is quite a big interest.”
