Event– Urban Dance class by Lucille Aires
Location- The Real Dance Studio, 40 North Lotts
Description- Different from the freestyle and battles scenes of Hip Hop, Urban Dance focus on choreography pieces. Each class will be a different scenario which will give students the chance to learn moves in various songs and learn/improve their skills during the class.
Lucille has been part of two Dance groups (H2O & Lenda Urbana) back in Brazil from 2013 to early 2015 before moving to Ireland. She taught Urban Dance in Dublin during 2017 but had to step back because of her studies. Last year she came back to scene with Dancehall classes and in the new year she wants to keep spreading the sense of community among dance lovers like she has been doing with her Dancehall students.
All levels welcome!

Children’s event– Bring Along a Baby
Location- National Concert Hall
Description- Bring Along a Baby is an informal, relaxed, accessible chamber music recital of the highest standard, aimed primarily at parents, while babies or very young children sleep, feed and play.
There is no pressure to keep still or quiet, leaving parents free to sit back and enjoy the music. In fact, we encourage the babies to interact naturally with the music, and we have play mats and soft toys to this end.
Of course, the babies benefit from the music as well, so it’s a win-win.
