Looking ahead - LAOIS YOUTH DANCE ENSEMBLE

Laois Youth Dance Ensemble started in September 2013 from a dream and passion that I had from long time ago. To have the Dunamaise Arts Centre through its director Michelle de Forge, embracing this vision of offering dance to young people in Laois is more than a honour to me, is an encouragement to keep me on going.

With no funds to support us financially and much work to do, LYDE has giving me such pleasure and joy to work with. Not only because I have been blessed to have lovely and talented dancers but I also have belief that our future shall be much brighter and our creativity will break boundaries of the imagination generating what is fresh and unique to our audience.

I'm not only looking ahead, I am looking forward to what else is coming! After our first appearance at Laois Dance Platform on 7th Dec, 2013 I became more certain that LYDE will walk with lifted eyes  to see dreams to come.

If you're 12+ and would like to join us, come on 1st Feb, 3-5pm for an experience Workshop. LYDE is a contemporary dance group that strives for excellence and seeks for passionate and committed dancers who wants to take the most of this experience.

Laois Dance Platform

Dunamaise Arts Centre invites you to attend our first Laois Dance Platform, which we hope to make an annual event.

Come and enjoy original dance works, from dance artists/teachers/dance schools from County Laois and beyond, showcasing a wide range of dance styles to current and potential dance students and audiences. 

Aiming to contribute to County Laois community life and culture by promoting dance as a central artform, Laois Dance Platform also has a goal to develop more cultural diversity and the discovery by young people of news dance styles and practice among locally based dance teachers, students and audiences. No matter what your age, style of dance or skill level, you are invited to get involved. This is a great opportunity to watch each dance work, share your feedback, and help shape the future development of what you’ve seen.
