What a wonderful weekend celebrating Irish dance! 🍀🧡

Congratulations to every dancer from across New England and Canada who completed their CLRG Grade Exams with us this weekend. We were honored to host so many dedicated dancers as they reached these important milestones!

A very special congratulations to our Grade 11 & 12 candidates on an incredible achievement. With the recent changes to the CLRG Grade Exam system, you are among the last dancers to ever complete these grades - a truly historic accomplishment!

A heartfelt thank you to Marie Moore, SDCRG, for making the trip to Maine and so generously sharing your time, expertise, and encouragement. We are incredibly grateful for the kindness you showed every dancer, the thoughtful feedback you provided, and for making this experience so meaningful for each of them.

Thank you to everyone who traveled to be with us, and congratulations again to all of the dancers! 🧡

Our biggest Charity Dance-Off to date! 💕🎀

A huge thank you to the 22 dancers who took the stage to dance for something bigger than themselves. Breast cancer has touched so many lives, and we’re proud to continue supporting the fight for better treatments and, one day, a cure.

Thank you for sharing your passion, creativity, and heart with everyone in the room. Your performances were a beautiful reminder that we’re stronger together.

Without a doubt, this is always one of our favorite competitions. Thank you for making it so meaningful. 💗🎗️
