About This Irish Dancing Hen Party Dance Class in Durham
Irish dancing is all quick feet and a straight back, and it makes a brilliant hen party because it looks impossible and turns out to be great fun the moment the group stops overthinking it. The choreographer teaches a lively line routine — the crisp footwork and high-kick finish everyone pictures from Riverdance — and builds it up count by count until a row of hens is drumming in near-unison.
We come to you. There's no need to track down a hall in a city as compact and hilly as Durham — the choreographer brings the whole session to your Airbnb, hotel function room or a cleared living room anywhere across Durham City and the county, speaker and all. A hard floor helps the footwork carry, so mention what your space is like when you book and we'll plan around it.
It's one flat price, £140 for the hour or £165 for ninety minutes, covering the whole group rather than charging per head, with a £10 bottle of fizz on offer if you want to toast the bride afterwards. Expect burning calves, a lot of laughing at the ones who can't stop using their arms, and a line routine you'll all remember at the next wedding.

What Our Hens Say
Irish Dancing hen parties we have taught across Durham.
"The teacher came to our rental near Gilesgate and had ten of us drumming out a line within the hour. My calves have never worked so hard while laughing."

— Wynne Aiston ★★★★★"Looked impossible, turned out to be the funniest hour of the weekend. Nobody could keep their arms still."

Everything you need to know about our Irish Dancing hen party dance class in Durham.
Do we need a hall, or will you come to us? +
We come to you. In a city as compact and steep as Durham there's no need to hunt down a venue — the choreographer brings the whole class to your Airbnb, hotel room or a cleared living space anywhere across Durham City and the county. A hard floor helps the footwork carry.
Is Irish dancing too hard for beginners? +
It looks far harder than it is. The steps are broken down slowly and built up a count at a time, so a complete beginner has a real routine within the hour. The trick is keeping your arms still — and laughing when you can't.
What will we actually learn? +
A lively line routine with quick footwork and the high-kick finish everyone pictures from Riverdance. It's shaped for your group's pace and finished with a run-through we film for you to take away.
How much does it cost? +
A flat £140 for the hour or £165 for ninety minutes, for the whole group rather than per person, with an optional £10 bottle of fizz. The price is fixed before the day, so nothing extra appears later.
How many can take part? +
Anywhere from five or six up to thirty-plus. A longer line just needs a bit more floor, so tell us your numbers and your space when you book and we'll set the routine to fit.
What should we wear? +
Something you can move in, with shoes that have a bit of grip but let you point your feet — trainers or hard-soled shoes both work. Save any heels for later; the footwork wants a flat, steady sole.
