Our History

​For more than 30 years, the McHugh School of Irish Dance has been dedicated to spreading a love of Irish Dance and culture to children throughout the Delaware Valley.  We pride ourselves in building self-esteem and tailoring instruction to each child as an individual.  We teach our dancers to set personal goals and give them the tools to achieve them!  In addition to regular Irish Dance classes, our dancers have the opportunity to participate in local, regional, national and world competitions.  The McHugh School also offers grade exams for children if they think they may consider teaching Irish Dance as an adult. All of our dancers, from our tiny preschoolers through our high school age children can participate in performances and love to give back to our community, sharing their talents with schools, nursing homes, churches, parades and more!
