Friendship, Family, Fitness and Fun
The McBride School of Irish Dance is built upon teamwork and friendship; our dancers are our family! We enjoy traveling, competing and performing together. Our goal is for all our students to experience the joy of Irish dancing, while encouraging and guiding them to their full potential, both as dancers and as individuals, through our competitive program. We also offer an elevated team curriculum for our beginners, champions and adult dancers. We encourage hard work and determination while promoting, and fostering friendships, and fitness. Soft shoe and hard shoe rhythms and techniques are combined with the strength, toning and flexibility that Irish dancing provides, offering both a high impact and high energy aerobic workout. We work with fitness professionals to ensure our dancers learn the best way to stretch, warm up, and cool down to avoid injuries and increase stamina. We strive to give our dancers a strong foundation in music, rhythm, timing and movement, while allowing them to advance at their own pace. We make it a priority to maintain a teaching environment that is supportive, focused and fun!
No matter whether you are thinking of dancing competitively or for recreation and exercise, Irish Dancing is a very rewarding activity that develops character, teaches fitness, instills dedication and builds confidence, all while making friendships and memories that will remain long after the dance shoes are put away for the very last time. There is something for everyone at the McBride School of Irish Dance! We invite you to join us today!

Competition and Performances
Competition can be an enjoyable and exciting part of the Irish Dance experience. For those who choose to compete, our instructors strive to promote a healthy spirit of teamwork and support between our dancers, both in the studio and on the stage. As our dancers progress in their skills, they will be given opportunities to compete at the local, regional, national and international level. A list of upcoming competitions can be found HERE.
Opportunities are also available for all McBride Dancers to participate in shows and performances, where a dancer can also gain the confidence and recognition that comes from performing in front of an appreciative audience. However, dancers are not required to perform or compete if they choose not to. Dancing just for fun can be its own reward. Looking for Irish Dancers for your Public or Private Event, go to our Performance Page HERE.
