Profile Information

I am a ...
Teacher, Dancer
About me
I'm the feet and fingers behind Diochra.com—Irish Dancing Online, established in 1998. I'm from Chicago, Illinois, and direct the Triallta Irish Dance Company alongside my friend Lauren. I'm a teaching member of NAIDF, currently working on my certifications.
What Irish things do I play, dance, say, sing or other:
I dance, play a bit of the fiddle, and pretend I know how to speak Gaelic.
Favorite Music
Irish, of course, alongside rock, heavy metal, alternative, electronic, even Arabic pop.
Dancing School / Group
E. Sullivan (alumna), Mullane (alumna), Triallta Irish Dance Company (co-director)
How many years have you been Irish dancing?
A little over a decade, on and off
Favourite Irish Dance Show
Riverdance. Strange as it is, when I see it live, it's like going to church for me!
I love this about Irish Dancing:
It gave me a lot of confidence.
I love this about Irish Tradition:
It never stops changing.
