PLEASE NOTE: signing up for this program indicates that you will be avaliable for a three month commitment to music lessons and jigging. It is assumed that participants will be avaliable for both music and jigging lessons.There is NO ticket option for jigging, as space is less restricted, and it is assumed that participants of the music lessons will stay for dance lessons as well.

Agenda

Participants will be divided based on the music lessons they signed up for and will learn the basics of that instrument. Depending on instrument choice, this will be in the LAMA boardroom, or the Family Ties Gathering Space Annex. 

Music Lessons in separate spaces

This time will be dedicated to learning the essential steps for jigging! Participants will reconvene from their separate music lessons in order to jig together in a common space. This part will be held at the Family Ties Gathering Space/Annex to accommodate for space.
