Irish Dancing

What we’re all about

LUU Irish Dancing Society are an inclusive society always hoping to meet new dancers from all backgrounds and abilities. No experience is necessary as we have classes suitable for all levels, so theres no better time to try something new! We are an established and popular feature of the Irish community around Leeds and perform at different events throughout the year. In 2018, we were awarded Best Dance Society at the Riley Awards!
