Annette's reputation as a teacher of traditional dance grew hugely during covid. Her online programme reached as far west as Seattle, and east to Japan - teaching to a growing community of old style dancers from all around the world.
Between May 2020 and March 2023 Annette delivered 13 courses of dance, at 4 levels - as well as private online classes and workshops.
Annette is currently exploring new initiatives in dance, in her home town of Lurgan (Co Armagh) and in Belfast; as well as a series of solo dance workshops in the Cobblestone, Dublin which are repeated online shortly after the in-person event.
Newly available in the shop - recordings of Garden of Daisies - Jockey to the Fair - King of the Fairies, recorded and arranged by Annette - sheet music also available.
"Research has proven that dance is one of the best forms of activity for keeping the body active and the mind alert."
