Irish Dance Idaho

Why is September such a busy month for Irish dancers?

We're not sure either! 😂 But after years of being invited to dance at September events for organizations throughout our community, we're so excited to once again bring you our show: Halfway to Saint Patrick's Day!

This performance is our way of giving back to the community that has welcomed us, invited us to share our dancing, and applauded for us year after year, whether in March or September.💚

Thanks for your support, and we can't wait to share what we've been working on! ☘️

Happy World Photography Day!

We're so thankful for the photographers who have spent the past 21 years capturing our dancers, performances, and all the little moments in between. ❤️

We hope you find something beautiful to look at today!

A shoutout to some of our favorite photographers, and especially to the parents who continue to capture and share these memories with us. We wouldn't have this archive without you!

What a SUMMER! ☘️ From Ireland to Idaho and back, our dancers worked their way through 50 days of practice, plus some bonus activities celebrating Irish culture and American heritage!

We celebrated their achievements at the studio tonight with a viewing of Luck of the Irish!

Congrats, dancers! We love watching you grow!

Something special is coming this September...

Irish Dance Idaho is celebrating our 3rd Annual Halfway to Saint Patrick's Day! 🎶☘️

⏰ 6:30 PM
📍 Kleiner Park Bandshell

Bring a friend, bring a lawn chair, and come celebrate Irish dance, music, culture, and community with us!

Since 2005, we've believed that learning the history and traditions of Irish dance is just as important as learning the choreography and steps!

This summer, IRISH DANCE IDAHO has been diving into our heritage, celebrating the rich culture, history, and traditions. Join us with a few fun facts for you to enjoy! ☘️

From paddleboards to the dance floor, IRISH DANCE IDAHO has been moving and grooving all summer long! ☀️

Attention IDI dancers: There are 24 days left in the challenge! Keep working hard and logging your practices!

Where have your summer adventures taken you so far? 🗺️ Comment if you want, or just keep making those memories!

Today we had the opportunity to dance at the beautiful Hidden Springs Historical Barn for the Ada Community Library Hidden Springs Branch library!

Fun facts:
• The barn was built around 1865 by Philip Schick.
• It is believed to be the oldest standing barn in Ada County.
• It has been beautifully maintained and lovingly preserved.
• To keep it preserved, we put down our Marley floor to help protect the gorgeous wood floor... and it was still deafening! 😂 What a floor! It might be among our favorites!

It was an honor to share Irish dancing culture and heritage with the library today. Thank you so much for having us. We loved every minute of it! ☘️💚

As part of our Long Journey Home Summer Challenge, we're taking inspiration from Ireland through dance, music, food, and all kinds of adventures.

One activity we couldn't resist? A photo shoot inspired by our friends at .

Were we completely captivated by their stunning studio photos? Absolutely.

Were we a tiny bit jealous? Also absolutely. 😆

We're choosing to call it inspiration.

Here are a few of our favorite shots, and a big thank you to for the creative spark! ☘️
