James McDonagh

James McDonagh, 18 began dancing at the young age of 4, and currently trains with the world renowned O’Neill Geraghty School of Irish Dance in Dublin, registered with CLRG. He has had a successful competitive career (which is still ongoing!) and has won feiseanna across the country, placing at all majors. James won the CRN World Open Championships in 2017, a highlight of his competitive career.

 

James is also an accomplished trad musician with CCÉ and was part of the grúpa ceoil which came 2nd at the All Ireland Fleadh in 2017. He is experienced in drama, having spent 2 years as a member of the youth performance company at the Gaiety School of Acting. He attended the Riverdance Summer School in 2015 and 2016, where he got a valuable insight into the professional dancing world. He is currently a student at Trinity College Dublin.

James considers himself lucky to have performed at many weddings, shows, corporate events (including at the 3Arena!) etc. and can regularly be seen performing in the Abbey Tavern, Howth and in the Guinness Storehouse with Celtic Rhythm. He looks forward to dancing with Damhsa, and can’t wait to see what the future holds!
