MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST

Danna started Irish dancing at the age of eight years old after quitting ballet since she had to wear a skirt and tights to class. She competed on the regional, national, and international stages both as an individual as well as part of a team. Starting in high school she toured with a professional company, the Trinity Irish Dance Company, through the United States and concluded her experience with two international tours through out the country of Japan.

You can still find Danna Irish dancing occasionally in her kitchen and putting on small shows for her friends. She is elated to share her expertise about the art form of Irish dance as well as some of the history and culture surrounded by it.
