| Training programme |
| If you are interested in preparing to graduation exams in order to obtain an IDN dancer diploma, or in being trained as an IDN dancing teacher or IDN adjudicator, our instructors will gladly assist you. |
| Advantages: We have no restrictions for the attendance at competitions. And we grant everybody the right to pass on their experience to other dancers, independent of possessing a certain piece of paper. Thus your advantage is of a purely personal nature. You know that you met a challenge. And you know that your way of Irish dancing is the right one. Above all, however, you get this certainty without being forced to make yourself completely subordinate to an organisation in return. |
| Disadvantages: Unfortunately there is a severe disadvantage. Our graduations for dancers and certifications for teachers and adjudicators are not recognised by the big élitist organisations. However, those who appreciate our advantages don't care about this disadvantage. |

| Invitation |
| Who? |
| You are a dancer or a musician, a group head or a teacher, perhaps an adjudicator too, or simply just interested in Irish dancing? |
| Then join and help to knot a network for all of us. Bring your enthusiasm and your abilities in. |
 |
| Why? |
| Together to feiseanna? Organise competitions, performances, and festivals yourself? Mutually help learning and teaching? |
| No fancy for membership fee, competition ban for choosing another teacher, and ban to dance at "other people's" competitions? |
| Then be cordially invited to join us. Stay independent and free with your decisions, and yet be part of the community. |
