In July, our own Anne Murray MacRitchie, TCRG was selected as one of 23 recipients of the 2021 Excellence in Teaching, Global Award given by Irish Dancing Magazine. This award was created to honor extraordinary Irish dance teachers with qualities that reflect a standard of excellence that goes beyond competitive results.  Winners were chosen from hundreds of nomonations by dancers, parents, and industry professionals.

I am so honored and grateful that members of our Murray community took the time to nominate me and that I was chosen from a pool of hundreds of equally deserving teachers. I love my job and am thankful every day for the amazing dancers I get to work with—so many great kids!. And thanks to Irish Dancing Magazine, for initiating this one-of-a-kind, industry-wide program; what a great way to recognize the hard work of so many teachers and the impact they have on their students’ lives!
