Rosalía Hall is an Irish dancing instructor, the only one in Madrid in fact..
his isn’t always easy and, although the groups of students may not be very numerous, all of her classes have a common factor: passion for Irish dancing.
How did your interest in Irish dancing start? When I was little I got hold of an Irish music CD and a VHS video cassette about this type of dancing and that is where it all started. Years later I found a small shop which sold products from Ireland. The shop was owned by Sheila Blooquist, of the Chicago Trinity Dancers, whom I started with. The classes were given at the James Joyce Irish Pub in Madrid (ex Kitty O’Shea’s). I then continued with Ronan McCormack, from River Dance. Anyway I finished me training in Ireland.
