    Haven't made it there in last 2 years due to work, but it is a great week- great atmosphere, friendly and not rowdy- as far as I know they split the tin whistle into adult beginner and child beginner so you would be in with people like yourself, classes numbers when I was there (improvers tw) were about 15, but i'm sure it can vary depending on number of enrolements and teachers involved. wish I could go this year but cant..:(

    Also quality of teachers were great- in my last classes there there was an emphasis on learning tunes from the sligo/leitrim tradition; but that can vary depending on the teacher in question. Definitely all pure trad!
