make irish dance Queer
it’s a Gayli!
irish dance is for everyone.
Since 2023, we’ve partnered with Mary’s Queer Irish Bar in Greenpoint Brooklyn to host GAYLI, a queer-friendly social dance class and ceili for dancers new and old, regardless of gender, age, or experience. GAYLI-goers get to review some of the basics of Irish dance, go over some old moves, and meet some new friends for a lesson, and dance-out and a pint.
Keep an eye on our Instagram for news of when the next session of GAYLI is coming to town!
