Belisama Irish Dance was founded in 2006 in Santa Fe and Los Alamos, New Mexico. We are focused on the dancer as an individual with the goal being a well-rounded person as well as a good dancer. We have a strong focus on performance and choreography, and we perform frequently in the communities of Santa Fe, Los Alamos, and Albuquerque. Students are invited to create choreography as well, which encourages creative thinking and gives the opportunity to teach others. We compete a few times a year and belong to Cumann Rince Naisunta (CRN), one of the three major Irish dance organizations in Ireland. While competition is encouraged, it is not required to be a student of Belisama. All levels and ages are welcome!
