About Learn to Jig
Learn To Jig was founded by Sophie, a qualified Irish dance teacher with a passion for making Irish dancing accessible to adults. After hearing repeatedly from parents that they wished they had the chance to dance when they were younger, Sophie began offering adult Irish dance classes to help people start later in life.
​
Since then, Learn To Jig has introduced over 200 adults to Irish dancing in a welcoming, supportive environment.
