Is O’Hare a recreational or competitive school?

Both! We always encourage our students to compete, but never require it. We have a mix of recreational and competitive dancers who all share the same love for Irish dance.


Can parents watch class?

Yes! Our studio offers a spacious lobby with a viewing window.


What should my dancer wear to class?

Does my dancer need shoes?

A t-shirt with shorts or leggings is great! Please have your hair pulled back as well.


We don’t require Irish dance shoes for your first session. Dancers who are just starting can wear socks or ballet slippers if you already have some.
