Kate Buckley School of Dance

The Kate Buckley School Of Dance offers a wide range of dance classes including Ballet, Modern Jazz, Hip-Hop, and Tap for students aged 3 years old to young adults. Located in Rathfarnham, Dundrum, and Knocklyon in South Dublin, the school is dedicated to guiding each dancer to reach their individual best potential through high standards of teaching suitable for all abilities and levels.

The Ballet classes at the school focus on improving posture, coordination, concentration, musicality, and confidence. Students have the opportunity to take RAD and ISTD Ballet examinations to further enhance their skills. In the Jazz classes, students work on stretching exercises, isolations, rhythm, and free work in both lyrical and jazz styles.

For those interested in Hip-Hop dance, the school offers a dynamic class that includes intricate movements, isolations, rhythm, and new routines every week. This class is not only a fun way to keep fit but also a creative outlet for students to express themselves through movement. Tap classes are also available, where students learn to use their feet to strike the floor, creating rhythmic sounds that are commonly seen in musicals.

The school aims to bring dance to as many people as possible, with locations in Dundrum, Rathfarnham, and Knocklyon. Students have the opportunity to participate in internationally recognised ballet and jazz examinations, as well as term displays and theatre productions to showcase their talents. The school also offers high-quality workshops, such as the Matilda workshop, to further enhance students' skills and creativity.
