After an incredible competition season last year — made possible by the amazing support of our friends, family, and community — Aoife, Orla, and Siobhan are once again diving headfirst into a big year of Irish Dance!
Since last season, both Aoife and Orla have both advanced to Open Championship — the highest and most competitive level in Irish dance. This year, Siobhan is working hard and aiming to join them at that level too!
But chasing dreams comes with a cost — and for us, that means a lot of travel:
🏁 Halifax (April 26–28)
🏁 Montreal/Ottawa (May 17–18)
🏁 Ontario (June 21)
🏁 Oireachtas (Eastern Canadian Championships), Toronto (November 28-30
That’s gas, accommodations, food (we’ve got a hungry crew!), and competition fees.
To raise funds for our dance adventures, I’ve committed to running the Half Marathon at Fredericton Race Weekend on May 11th.
Here’s the twist:
➡️ I've only just started training for it.....
➡️ I’ll be performing the second of two Flamenco shows in Dartmouth the night before.
➡️ I plan to drive straight to Fredericton after the gig, run the race on a few hours of sleep, and aim for a finish time of under 1 hour and 45 minutes!
That’s the challenge.
Your donation is the fuel.
Every dollar you give helps cover competition expenses — and gives Aoife, Orla, and Siobhan the chance to shine on stage and chase their dreams - including the possibility of going to the National or World Championships. And believe me, knowing you’re cheering them on will light a serious fire under their feet!
If passion, hard work, and big dreams matter to you too — your support would mean the world. Let’s make this journey happen together. 💚☘️
Thank you!
