Irish Dance Pro Limited started in 2014, when founder, Shane McAvinchey, a former Riverdance star, Irish dancing teacher and Co Founder of various professional Irish Dance training programs, was teaching a girl how to use heavy shoes. He told her 'Practice! Practice! Practice!' but she said she was not allowed practice at home because of expensive wooden floors. The fear of scratching them and disturbing the neighbours. It reminded him of his own childhood and how his family would scream at him 'Will you stop dancing!' So he had an idea... Imagine all his students had a protective, sound proofing, mobile Practice Pad of their own in unique colours & designs. A concept now brought to life by Practice Pad creators with great excitement we present to you our first collection...and there's lots more to come. Hup! ​
