The possibility that is given to the Summer School participants is „balanced“ by a complicated process of arranging the time schedule. It is based on the fact that there are fixed dance lessons and the music lessons and Irish have to complement them so that as many applicants as possible can accommodate their interests.

 Thus the beginning of the Summer School will be as follows:
- Saturday 15 August – you can register on the venue – ZŠ Zárubova Praha 4 (there will be signs with the Summer School logo directing you from the bus stops of no. 139 and 205 called „Sídliště Lhotka“. The busses leave from the Metro C station called Kačerov. You can deposit your luggage from ca. 10:00, accommodation will be open some time in the afternoon. The opening dance evening in the gym at ZŠ Zárubova will start at ca. 20:00.
- Sunday 16 August – the opening is at 9:00 (registration will be open from 8:00). We start with step dancing lessons (Ronan, Terezas, Maruška);
We had to build up the afternoon programme all over again to avoid collisions. It is going to look like this:
- 13:00 - music lessons start with box (Marek Poledna), bodhrán (Roman Kozák), fiddle (Alastair Edwards), whistle (Michel Sikiotakis and Martin Penič);
- 13:30 - sean-nós with Gerard Butler;
- 14:00 - guitar lessons according to plan (René Starhon)
- 16:00 - set dancing with Gerard, banjo (Marek Zienert), pipes (Michel Sikiotakis) and Irish (Radvan Markus).
These lessons on Sunday will be the time to set the definite schedule of all music classes.
