This website belongs to Tereza, Markéta, Lenka and Václav Bernard from Prague, the Czech Republic. Irish culture is our common hobby and the most of all it is Irish dancing in all its forms – from step dancing and sean-nós dancing to Irish set dancing. Our activities were connected with the oldest Czech Irish dancing group called Rinceoirí, where Václav acted as a principal leader for more then 10 years, Tereza significantly formed its dancing standard in position of artistic leader and Markéta danced and also documented its journeys and successes in written and photographic form. Within the framework of this dancing group we conceived a very popular Summer School of Irish Dancing – Bernards Summer School. The first one took place in 2001 and the number of participants and the rich Irish culture programme has no rival in continental Europe at present. Three years later we established Rinceoirí Irish Dance Academy (RIDA) as a part of Rinceoirí, which was attended by around 140 people interested in Irish dancing during the past few years. Currently Václav and Lenka are members of Prague Irish Set Dancers, Tereza dances in Hession School in Galway and Markéta attends Delaney Academy Prague classes and occasionally sings with a band called Shannon.
Our website acts as promotion of Irish dancing in the Czech Republic, it is a source of information for those who are interested in the Summer School of Irish Dancing - Bernards Summer School and other similar events in this country. We will be delighted if you always find something interesting and inspiring for yourselves with every visit of our website.

A new movie based on 'The Quiet Man' is to be filmed in Cong, the same village near Connemara where the original took place in 1952.
Former James Bond actor Roger Moore, Aidan Quinn and Geraldine Chaplin will star in the movie called 'Connemara Days,' which will chronicle the arrival of famed Hollywood director John Ford into the little Irish village.
Stacy Keach, star of 'Escape from LA,' will play Ford, who arrived in Cong in 1952 accompanied by John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara. The movie, a romantic comedy, will focus on the impact that Ford and his crew had on the local scene.
