Who am I?

My name is Isla O'Reilly and I am a (nearly) lifelong resident of Inverness. I adore Ceilidh Dancing and have been doing the dances for as long as I can remember. After leaving employment in 2004 to start a family I found myself with more time to pursue my interests. The inspiration for the classes came from my Japanese sister-in-law who wanted to learn Ceilidh Dancing. She couldn't find a class that covered the most popular dances, the ones that are actually done at social events. SO, I started one! We initially ran two 10 week terms starting in Feb of 2007 but then I had to take a break while producing baby number three. Now my baby days are over (baby number 3 is now 18months old) so another round of lessons can begin.

Me and my favourite dance partner (my dad). My inspiration, Miho.
