OUR CHAMPIONS
McConnell Irish Dance is a member of Cumann Rince Náisiúnta (CRN), based in Dublin Ireland and our World class dancers compete across North America and at the CRN World Open Irish Dance Championships in Ireland. McConnell Irish Dance began our competitive program in 2015 and we are proud to have produced 20 Champion (Craobhghrád) dancers during this time. It takes a great deal of hard work and dedication from dancers and their instructors to achieve the level of Champion and we commend them all on their wonderful accomplishments.
