Welcome to the MacConmara Academy of Irish Dance. It is my goal to teach Irish dance to the best of your child’s ability. Most importantly to make it a wonderful and memorable experience while cultivating a love of Irish culture and dance. Irish dancing has been a part of my family my entire life. I want you to enjoy coming to classes, going to competitions, and giving performances just as I did growing up. The skills taught in Irish dance go beyond dance skills and have been proven to be invaluable many years later to so many people. Lasting friendships are formed among students, parents, and teachers as well as memorable experiences; from the first feis to placement in regional, national, or maybe a world championship.
