Tap Classes (Liffey Trust Studios) Sept-Oct 2026

ADULT TAP LESSONS in DUBLIN

Location: Liffey Trust Studios, 117-126 Sheriff Street Upper, North Wall, Dublin, D01 HW96

TUESDAYS

Sept 8th - Oct 20th (7 classes)

6:30-7:30pm: Beginners Tap (€90)

7:30-8:30pm: Improvers Tap (€90)

DETAILS:

BEGINNERS course is ideal for complete beginners, for those who have learned a few steps but lack comprehensive technique, or those who feel very rusty. Each week builds upon what you learned the week before. Explore the fundamentals of tap technique, basic steps, fun combinations and a dance routine!

IMPROVERS class is intended for students who have already taken at least one full academic year of Beginners Courses, or for experienced tap dancers looking to brush up their skills. We will keep learning new steps and combinations beyond what you already know, introduce more rhythm-building and improv, and learn a new routine!

If you are unsure which level you should pick, please contact Colleen for advice!

I also offer classes on Thursday nights in Inchicore (Beginner, Improver, AND Int/Adv) which can be booked .

FAQs

What ages are welcome in class?

Tap classes are intended for ages 18+ . I often have a wide age range in my classes, with students in their teens up to their 60s!

Teens aged 14-17 permitted with parent/guardian consent, please contact Colleen before booking.

Can I attend class on a drop-in basis?

Priority entry goes to students purchasing the full course, however drop-ins are welcome when space is available. Drop-in rate is €15 per class, cash or Revolut at the door. Contact Colleen for availability.

What are my transport options for getting to and from the class?

Liffey Trust Studios is 3min walk from the Luas Red Line (The Point) and accessible via numerous Dublin Bus routes.

Parking: Limited street parking (free after 7pm), or nearby at The Point Square Car Park (paid)

Do I need my own tap shoes? What should I wear to class?

Students are expected to buy their own tap shoes, a basic pair costs about €35 at Dance World (on Parnell St or in Ranelagh). If you would like to try a few classes before investing in tap shoes, I recommend wearing shoes with a smooth, non-rubbery sole, that has a separate heel and toe (like brogues, not flats). Dress comfortably, you'll work up a sweat! And bring a water bottle!

Please either bring your printed ticket, or have it on your phone.
