About Us

Our Story

Dancing on Eire School of Irish Dance was formed in February 2014 under the direction of Lauren Witts-Falcone. What began with 4 dancers in a local fire hall, has transformed into some 40+ dancers. In Fall 2018, Dancing on Eire moved to their own studio space in Schwenksville, and we have called it home ever since. 

Our Mission

Dancing on Eire is a primarily performance based Irish Dance School located in Schwenksville, PA.  Our goal is to provide quality Irish Dance instruction in a fun, nurturing environment. We strive to not only teach Irish Step dancing, but also Irish culture and history. While we primarily focus on community involvement and performances, competition opportunities are also available.  The overall goal of our school is a place for students to have fun and make new friendships.

Miss Lauren began her Irish dance journey at age 9.  At this time Riverdance was exploding around the world and Irish dance was gaining popularity.  Miss Lauren danced with Pride of Erin, a performance based school.  With them she had the opportunity to perform 50+ shows a year.  Miss Lauren has performed for schools and nursing homes as well as for birthdays, weddings and special events.  She has also had the honor of dancing in several Philadelphia St. Patrick's day parades, Hershey Park, the Boscov's Thanksgiving Day parade, Washington D.C. for the National 4th of July events, Miss America Pageants and Walt Disney World.  


Miss Lauren also received training from the Gaelic Roots Irish Dance camp at Boston College, Summer 2003.  Here she studied under world renowned dancers, such as Donny Golden, Liam Harney, Michael Maguire, Kathleen O'Shea Maguire and Colette Devline McAllister.   Miss Lauren also competed briefly with the Ryan School of Irish Dance under the direction of Christina Ryan-Kilcoyne.
