Authentic Irish Dance Experience

Twist of Irish is a Dublin-based Irish dance experience company operating from Malahide and Swords, with the option to travel to your location. Its 90-minute experience teaches the basics of Irish dance, including the brush dance, ceili dance and a shortened version of Riverdance, alongside live performances by professional dancers in full Celtic costume.

Participants receive a Certificate of Participation as a keepsake. The team also runs a two-hour showcase with live musicians and champion Irish dancers at Gibneys of Malahide and Swords Castle, and delivers Irish dancing classes in schools across Dublin.

Corporate and private events such as weddings and parties can be tailored, with a traditional Irish band available on request. Founded in 2022 by Mary Grimes, an Irish dance teacher and school owner, and Karen, who brings a corporate background, it has welcomed over 10,000 participants.
