Good luck to Sam Durbin, who is leaving today for Dublin, Ireland! She will be participating in the “The Riverdance Trinity College International Summer School”. We couldn’t be more proud to have a CulkiNation dancer representing us over the pond! Good luck, Sam! We can wait to hear all about your experience! http://academy.riverdance.com/discover-summer-school-2015/
Congratulations to all of our Nationals Dancers!
We are incredibly proud of all of our dancers who competed in the North American Nationals this past week. Everyone ‘danced up’ and made us proud! You are all knocking on the “recall” door and we are confident that you all will take the stage by storm at Oireachtas! A HUGE shout out to the girls who recalled – Mary C, 62nd, Sam D 36th, Tati K 36th. You are all great role models and will help all of our dancers get to the next level!

June 1 & 2 class schedule
Monday, June 1 & 2 all classes are being held at the normal times and locations. We decided that we’d extend the year in order to make up for some time missed during all of the Monday & Tuesday snow cancellations! We hope to see you at your last Irish dancing class tonight! June 3rd will start our small break prior to summer camps. MAKE sure to sign up for at least 1 week of summer camp!! It’s highly recommended. NOTE that Level 6 & 7 dancers have majors practices through June 29 and Figures teams participating at the Nationals have specially scheduled practices as well. You all received the Nationals schedules via email.
Memorial Day Weekend Schedule
Happy Memorial Day everyone, and THANK YOU to all of our Culkin Families who have served our country!
We WILL have classes on Saturday, May 23. We DO NOT have classes on Monday, May 25.
And good luck to all of our dancers who are competing at the Hurley Feis!
