“I can confidently say that studio2stage has been THE best experience of my life and has helped me open so many doors with incredible opportunities in my dancing career.
As a returning cast member from 2019, the program only seems to get better and better each year. Being able to work closely with the amazing choreographers, musicians, and to dance alongside some of the worlds best dancers is an opportunity that any dancer and performer can only dream of.
With s2s, you are able to gain all of the insight into the world of professional dancing by creating a full-scale live production in just 9 days.
One thing that I have always admired about s2s is that everyone is a team and everyone is treated equally and fairly.
Thanks to studio2stage, I have made lifelong friendships, memories, and I have found a new love for dance and for performing.
s2s has inspired a confidence in me to pursue professional dancing that I never knew I had before.
I would HIGHLY recommend auditioning for the cast because it is the experience of a lifetime that can help put your name out into the professional dance world!
I can’t wait for what’s next and I look forward to 2023!”

The past 10 days was probably one of the best experiences in my whole life. Getting to travel abroad to take part in rehearsals and shows doing the thing I love most was so amazing and being surrounded by such an amazing group of people made it so much better.
studio2stage has given me an insight as to what goes on behind the scenes and as to what it is like to be in a professional dance show.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Michelle, Rachel, Enda, Siobhan, Barry and the rest of the studio2stage team for the amount of work and time that they have put into creating a show like this, making my experience so memorable. I would also like to thank the choreographers Aidan, Andy, Colm & Miriam for believing in us and for always being positive and motivational.
Thank you to Anton & Sully and the rest of the musicians for the amazing music. The show would not be the same without your music and performing on stage to it was so much fun.
I thoroughly recommend studio2stage as it teaches you all about the performance aspect of Irish Dancing.
I have made so many new friends and memories to last a lifetime and I cannot wait for what the future holds.
Thank you so much for this incredible opportunity! ?

studio2stage ... WOW. I wish there was more words in the dictionary to describe how amazing this unbelievable program is.
studio2stage was my first ever show experience and most definitely an unforgettable one, a once in a lifetime opportunity indeed!
I have learnt so much over the past 10 days from new moves I wasn’t able to do before, how to perform a routine other than just dance it and what it’s like to dance/train for a company in the run up to a big show.
The adrenaline and emotions you feel before and after you complete that show is a feeling like no other, there is no comparison to it and a feeling I never want to forget!
You get to actually see the insights of what it takes to put together a production behind the scenes with the costumes, lighting, music and backstage producers. You don’t only learn Irish dancing but the combination of other genres of dance included and no dance is ever the same!
The choreographers are just truly amazing at what they do and are always ensuring your okay and on the same page as everyone else, they are with you every step of the way.
I have made so much new life long dancing friends who I hope to see in future shows again.
These past few days have honestly been the best few days of my life and hopefully marking the start of my future and career in shows.
studio2stage is the best opportunity I’ve ever had and one I will forever be grateful and thankful for I just can’t thank everyone involved enough! I cannot wait to audition again for 2023, the countdown has already begun.

I’m back home from one of the best experiences at studio2stage and can happily say that I loved every single minute of it!
It was a pleasure being able to dance alongside an incredible cast who I can call my friends and be in the presence of amazing choreographers who believed in us and pushed us to perform to our best.
Thank you to the whole team at studio2stage for working so hard, I’m so grateful to have been among so many talented people.
I would definitely recommend coming to studio2stage to anyone who shares the same passion and love for Irish dance as I do and dancers who want an insight into what a professional show looks like.
I have gained a lot of confidence in performing from this experience as we were able to dance live to an audience as well as dance in Times Square.
It really has been an experience of a lifetime and one that I will never forget.
Thank you x

Without a doubt studio2stage was one of the best weeks of my life! This was my first year attending and I had the most amazing time!
I had the privilege of being appointed Dance Captain, learned and worked with the most incredibly talented choreographers, made great friends and got to put on a full production with the rest of the cast.
The 9 days you are there are full of hard work, but it all pays off and is so incredibly rewarding when you step out onto that stage at the end of the week and feel proud of the work you and your cast mates have done.
Having the chance to work with these amazing choreographers, musicians and singers was truly a dream come true.
I learned first hand what it means to be apart of the professional dance world. s2s gave me a newfound sense of confidence in my dancing and reinforced my love for performance dancing, encouraging me to continue following this path.
I recommend this camp to anyone looking to gain professional experience! It is honestly the most unforgettable experience to put on a full scale production in only 9 days! Those long rehearsal days that were so incredibly daunting in the beginning were some of the best days. I know I am coming out of this a better and more confident dancer and a stronger person.

This was my first year to take part at studio2stage and it was amazing!
I loved every second it and I am honored to have worked with such amazing choreographers and team at s2s!
It took a lot of hard work through out the time spent in the studios in preparation for our two shows but the hard work paid off.
I would love to go on tour professionally, and my time at s2s has given me a huge insight to being a professional dancer and what exactly it takes to be one! I have made lifelong friendships with people who share the same passion as me and having these people to share this experience with, made it so much more enjoyable! studio2stage has been one of the most amazing opportunity’s I have been given and I am forever thankful and grateful for all that it took to make it the best yet!
I would like to thank Michelle, all the studio2stage team and the most incredible choreographers Aidan, Miriam, Colm and Andy for everything they have done for me and every single dancer who took part, for being so inspiring, so motivating and so helpful, you’s have made my first year at studio2stage something very special! ?

I just want to thank Michelle and all the s2s team for the most amazing 9 days.
It exceeded all my expectations and I feel so lucky to have been a part of such an incredible production. I made memories and friends that will last a lifetime.
There was an atmosphere of positivity, support and encouragement all week that made me never want to leave! It was such an honor to be chosen as dance captain for such a fabulous group of dancers.
Being taught by world-class choreographers with so much experience and advice to give was an opportunity I don’t think you can get anywhere else.
Seeing Miriam, Aidan, Andy and Colm put together full routines in just a week was nothing short of inspiring. Although I was definitely challenged physically, preforming on stage alongside talented dancers and musicians made all the blisters worth it!
My goal is to tour in the future and this experience offered so much insight into what it takes to be a professional dancer. I’ve learned so much and s2s has only confirmed my love for preforming for an audience.
I would 100% recommend studio2stage for any dancer who wants to take that first step to becoming a professional performer.
Thank you again for this opportunity, I’m so so grateful ?
