About
The University of Michigan's first Irish Dance group was started in the winter of 2000 by a group of five students. Having been trained in Irish Dance at various levels, they sought to create an opportunity for others like them to continue dancing upon arriving at the University and to teach those who had never had the chance to do so before.The group has since progressed to a full-fledged performance group, gaining an official name and recognition both on and off campus. They put on an annual show which has been showcased at the Michigan Theater and the Mendelsohn Theater, along with various multicultural events around campus including Springfest, Cultural Connection, Taste of Culture, among others. But their performances aren't just limited to on-campus events. Leim Irish Dance has competed in intercollegiate Irish dance competitions against other teams across the country! Members have various ability levels ranging from years of training to those just having begun in college.
