Inclusivity
All are welcome at Caitríona Irish Dance. We thrive on collaboration and kindness, and together we cultivate a safe space where we uplift and inspire one another. We are a team.
Cornerstones
❋
Accessibility
Along with weekly classes at the studio, Caitríona Irish Dance also offers affordable after-school programs, queer céilí socials, homeschool enrichment programs, céilí nights, and corporate bonding events so that people of all ages and backgrounds can enjoy the merriment and cultural richness of Irish dance.
✦
Empowerment
Caitríona classes promote teamwork and self-confidence through traditional group dances (céilí), creative opportunities such as improv and dancer-led choreographing challenges, and goal-setting. We foster a welcoming space where all stages of progress and hard work are celebrated and dancers can express themselves creatively without judgment.

“
Welcome! I’m Irene, founder of Caitríona Irish Dance. I’ve worked professionally in education and childcare for 10 years: 2 in Chile and 8 in the US. I Irish danced competitively for over 20 years, and had the privilege of competing in fun places like Scotland, Canada, Argentina, and of course, Ireland! I am a three-time world qualifier: twice in solo dancing and once in the 16-hand figure. Dance class has always been my happy place, and I’m passionate about spreading that joy with a dance school that is inclusive, accessible, and empowering. I’ve named my school after my best friend and my biggest cheerleader: my mother Catherine (Caitríona in Irish). Thanks for stopping by!
