The group is proud to promote Irish culture through social Irish dancing for adults. The LAISD hosts the regularly scheduled Los Angeles CEILI (pronounced "Kay-Lee"), which is a social gathering for adults to enjoy traditional Irish dance, music and song. (You don't have to be a dancer, come and enjoy the music and song and make new friends.) The group also sponsors regular weekend set dancing workshops throughout the greater Los Angeles area (some with expert Dance Masters from Ireland) and holds weekly set dancing classes ALL Levels Welcome.

The Los Angeles Irish Set Dancers are proud to have promoted Irish culture through performances and workshops at numerous events since their formation in July 2000. Check our Performance page for a partial listing of past performances.

The group traveled to Miltown Malbay, County Clare, Ireland in July 2001, 2002 & 2003 to participate in the Willie Clancy Summer School – An annual Irish Music and Dance Festival attended by musicians and dancers from all over the world.
