Miss Kathleen has been dancing for more than 25 years, launching her international career with Riverdance on Broadway in 2000 and touring widely across North America with the iconic Celtic company until April 2005.

Since opening the studio in September 2005, dancers have progressed from Beginner to Championship status, developing not only amazing technique, but a strong love for Irish dance and culture as well.

"Irish dancing has captured the imagination of millions around the world thanks to Riverdance and other prestigious shows - and it is an excellent way to teach youngsters poise, balance and rhythm," Ms Ryan said. Miss Kathleen is certified with An Coimisiún le Rincí Gaelacha, ensuring all students will receive formal and proper Irish dance instruction.
