TASTE OF TRINITY Offers Legendary Training in Chicago and Suburbs

The Trinity Academy of Irish Dance, one of the most renowned Irish dance programs worldwide, invites Chicago-area children to sample its award-winning instruction with its annual summer program, Taste of Trinity. Each six-class workshop is designed to introduce students to the unique and exciting world of Irish dance.

Available in multiple sessions from late June through mid-August at six Chicago-area locations (see schedule below), Taste of Trinity offers boys and girls ages four through 12 a chance to discover the basics of Irish dance, learning the proper techniques of movement set to the rhythm of Irish music. Each session concludes with a 15-minute special performance for family and friends. No previous dance experience is necessary.

"Taste of Trinity offers a wonderful opportunity for children to experience the fun and artistry of Irish dance, taught by our highly respected instructors," said Trinity Founding Artistic Director Mark Howard. "It's also a healthy form of exercise and a great way to make new friends."

Registration for Taste of Trinity is now open; space is limited. Cost per six-class session is $95, which includes a Trinity t-shirt. Contact Cynthia Oblein at 773-529-4822, ext. 35 or cynthia.oblein@trinitydance.com for information or visit trinityirishdancers.com.
