Murray Academy Winter Feis (January)
Cara Rince hosts one of New England's best "black out" competitions (no dresses, wigs, make up or bling!) right here on the Seacoast. Dancers from Pre-Beginners through Open Champions compete in front of a prestigious panel of national and international judges. From the stages, to the music, to the Lindt chocolate awards, to the food, this feis is top notch. Even Murray the Moose has been known to stop by and cheer on dancers from all over!

We are excited to announce our first Virtual 5K to help celebrate St. Patrick's Day and to fundraise to help our dancers prepare for and travel to the North American Championships in Phoenix in July of 2021.

What’s a virtual 5K? You complete 3.1 miles, however and wherever you’d like between March 13-20th. Run, walk, bike, dance-it’s a 5K your way.
*There’s also an opportunity to do additional fundraising to help our dancers get to Nationals.
St. Patrick’s Potluck (March)
Join us at the Murray Academy of Irish Dance’s St. Patrick’s Day Party to celebrate the holiday with all of our Murray families. Dancers, parents, siblings, friends and alumni are all welcome! Enjoy live Irish music, pot luck delicacies, a cash bar and our Annual Dad’s Step Dance Contest (very fun and laid back)! See some of your old Murray friends or make some new ones!
St. Patrick's Dance Outs (March)
What better way to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day than through dance! Join our Murray Academy family as we dance all over the Seacoast. All are welcome to join in the fun (everyone loves the wee ones!).
Pre-Beginner/Beginner/Advanced Beginner Practice Feis (March/April)
Cara Rince hosts a very informal practice “feis” (gaelic for festival, dance competition) for pre-beginner through advanced beginner level dancers to introduce them, and their families, to the world of Irish Dance competitions. It is held at the studio, and every participant receives a medal and or award. Experienced dancers and parents will be there to help answer questions and there will be some performances from the experienced dancers so the younger dancers can see what they have to look forward to! This is a great opportunity to practice steps on stage to live music, surrounded by familiar faces and studio space. If your dancer is already attending feiseanna, this practice feis is certainly not required, but it is still available to him or her as another opportunity to practice their feis skills close to home!
