Testimonials

  • "My daughter, Robyn, has been dancing with CSD since 2017. She loves to attend her weekly classes and adores Miss Sinead, Miss Lyndsay, and Miss Susie. She has made some wonderful friendships. Each end of term performance is fresh, exciting, and so professionally choreographed and created to make every dancer shine. All the children who attend Cork School of Dance are treated with the utmost care and attention and the quality of the teaching staff is second to none."

    MICHELLE O’LEARY

  • "My years in Cork School of Dance taught me so much more than just dance! I absolutely adored going into the doors of the Firkin Crane every week to such a friendly and positive atmosphere. From weekly classes, weekend rehearsals, ballet and jazz exams to the various Christmas and Summer shows, I have so many wonderful memories of my time in CSD. My passion for dance and fitness has stayed with me throughout my adult life and that is testament to the amazing dance school Ms Murphy runs."

    EMMA TEAHAN

  • "As a Student of Miss Sinead’s for over 15 years, I can safely say that my time at Cork School of Dance has shaped much of who I am today. My passion for dance and performing was nurtured in a positive, inspiring atmosphere - and not only did I learn incredible technique across a range of different dance genres, but I also learned how to carry myself with confidence and grace, as well as essential life skills such as punctuality, manners and a great sense of discipline. The opportunities and experiences I have had the privilege of taking part in over the years, as well as the friendships I’ve formed at Cork School Of Dance, are things I’ll take with me forever."
