The Firkin Crane

CSN Performing Arts - Dance

The Colaiste Stiofain Naofa VEC course in Dance is the first step to a fascinating and rewarding career.

Subjects studied:
- Modern Jazz Dance Technique
- Anatomy
- Dance History
- Production/ Media Skills
- Administraion/Communication Skills
- Performance Skills

The course is based at the Firkin Crane, where students have the opportunity to work with a range of international dance companies and choreographers.

"Few institutions have such strong links with the profession, a clear rational supporting course development and a structural course that values educational elements of the training process. Only the course at the Firkin Crane currently has these essential elements in place."
