September 2005 is coming soon. This years “After-Summer School” will take place from 08.-11.09.2005. Trainer for this 4-day event will be again Anne-Marie Cunningham (TCRG) and Tereza Bernardova, who convince with their professionality and their friendliness. These “gals” :) make moreover really gorgeous lessons. FILMING is allowed by Anne-Marie during and after the lessons!! This means, that everybody really will benefit from this "After-Summer School"! I myself in anyway made the experience that such a short movie can help enormously...
We can offer you free accomodation in one of the gyms, as well as free water and other specials. This time the accomodation will not be in the same gym, but in another room, that is two stairs above it. There you’re able to keep all your stuff during the day. The lessons will be throughout the day, but don’t worry, we don’t want to exaggerate it!
We’re pleased to offer you a group discount this year. They are as followed: 5 people or more, who registrate together: 5% discount/person 10 people or more, who registrate together: 10% discount/person Discount for children (under 16): 15% discount/person There will be two levels and you’re able to train in two big gyms which are situated next to each other. In both gyms you will be allowed to dance with your hardshoes and there is music equipment in each of both halls, technic which plays the music also during the rest of the year. In the registration form you will notice that we ask you for your t-shirt size. This is just for the case, if we find somebody who will sponsor this. If so, you will get a free ASS-T-Shirt additional. But we didn’t want to take it into consideration of the ASS fee, because we think it would be unfair to you. For this reason, if we find some sponsoring, you will get something for free. Please feel free to compare the information given at the january-workshop (only in german) and throughout the rest of the pages. If you do not want to use one of our free halls for spending the night, then you find here other possibilities. |
Furthermore I am happy to be able to tell you, that we have a ceili-live-band for Saturday evening (ceili-session). This band is the famous and so called one: "Irish Traditional Heads". Public ceili-session with "Irish Traditional Heads" | 
| The musicians from "Irish Trad. Heads" are for years one of the most popular bands of the german irish folk scene. Their repertoire consists mainly of traditional pieces of instrument valley, played with the typical instruments of irish folk music - Fiddle, uilleann pipes (the irish bagpipe), concertina and bouzouki. The musical sovereignty of “Irish Trad. Heads”, their cooperation in many different folk projects for many years and their concert experience are warranty at any performance for a relaxed but also authentically athmosphere, which inspires dancers as well as listeners. | | | | | | | |

He is also a famous teacher at the meetings of the German Uilleann Pipes Society. In sessions and concerts he is also playing the tinwhistle and lowwhistle in perfect manner. | | Klaus Feketics gives with his guitars and Bouzoukis the harmonious and rhytmical basis for the irish dance melodies. Even if he is primarily a highly estimated background musician, you also can get to hear one or more of his irish songs. Klaus also plays the bouzouki in the German Irish Folk band "An Tor". | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Guest musician: Claus Kessler | 
| The particularly experienced ceili musician, Claus Kessler, is well-known by his perfect playing on his concertina as well as he is the leader of several dance bands in the German musician scene.
