Bluegrass Ceili Academy is more than just a dance school.

Perspective. Experience. Community. Mission. It’s what matters.

It’s the way we look at things, the experience we bring to the classroom, it’s building and giving back to our community, and living our mission by providing a supportive learning environment for dancers of all ages and skill levels.

Find out more about Bluegrass Ceili Academy and how you can join in the Irish dance March madness fun by stopping at our booth at the Lexington St. Patrick’s Festival and meeting some of our dancers. We’d love to tell you more about our community-based program.
