An Daire Academy of Irish Dance was founded in 2006 by husband & wife team of Jim Mueller, ADCRG and Lauren Crowe-Mueller, ADCRG, Oregon’s only certified Irish dance adjudicators. Like the oak tree from which our name comes, our dancers learn the benefits of hard work, strong character and deep roots in an environment focused on family, fun and fitness!

An Daire Academy dancers have won titles at the 2004, 2007, 2013 and 2014, 2019 Western US Regional Championships, the 2005 North American Championships, and placed as teams and soloists in the top 10 at the World Irish Dance Championships.

Our founders are dedicated to the promotion and preservation of Irish dance: they have taught lessons and workshops throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Utah, Colorado, Hawaii and Bermuda, and host five competitions each year.

We offer certified Irish dance instruction for all ages, ability levels and interests in multiple locations throughout the Portland Metro area. Our directors bring over 50 years combined teaching experience; competitive and recreational opportunities are available.
