As with the club's other locations, the exact day, time and price for the Tallaght sessions are set by the individual school or venue rather than published centrally - best to confirm directly.

Parents simply get in touch to describe what their child is interested in, and Dance Sport helps find a suitable class close to home. It's a useful starting point for families who aren't sure which style or local school to choose.
