Explore popular tunes like "The Fisherman’s Slip Jig" with teachings from expert instructor Kirsten Allstaff. Her guidance will help you master the rhythmic lilt and intricate ornamentation that characterizes slip jigs, adding another layer of depth to your repertoire.
Progress to more challenging pieces, such as "Willie Coleman's Jig," focusing on advanced ornamentation that will take your playing to the next level. These lessons not only polish your technique but also introduce the historical and emotional backdrop of each tune, making your learning experience well-rounded and deeply enriching.
Experience an immersive 360° Irish music session, virtually taking your seat among other musicians in a traditional Irish setting from 2019. This interactive component provides a unique, practical context for your acquired skills, simulating the vibrant environment of an actual music session.

Meet Irish flute maestro Michel Bonamy in the "Spirit of Doolin Episode 3." Drawing inspiration from his virtuosity and passion for the craft, you'll find yourself motivated to push the boundaries of your own playing potential.
Refine your reel-playing skills with focused lessons on engaging tunes such as "The Braes of Busby." The lively pace and intricate movements of reels will challenge and enhance your agility and precision on the flute.
For those with a silver flute, there’s a dedicated segment titled "The Dancing Master," bridging the gap between traditional wooden flutes and their modern counterparts. This segment broadens your versatility, enabling you to apply Irish techniques to various flute types.
