Emerald Isle Step Dancers

Emerald Isle Step Dancers The Step Dancers are committed to preserving and promoting their heritage in the art of dance. The group has approximately 100 students.

The Emerald Isle Step Dancers were founded in 1980, by twin sisters Margaret and Maureen Monahan and the group is still going strong under the direction of Jennifer Woss. We perform traditional Irish dances, as well as more modern pieces such as those influenced by Riverdance and Lord of the Dance. We perform year round for a multitude of audiences and organizations. The students range in age from 4 to 67.

The Emerald Isle Step Dancers will perform a traditional ribbon dance — tangling and untangling streamers in the colors of the Irish flag — and they’ll also break out their hard shoes for a modern number danced to “Another One Bites the Dust,” made famous by the rock group Queen.
