Welcome to the Rhythm of Ireland School of Irish Dance

ROI opened in January of 1997 to a town that wasn’t quite sure what Irish dance was all about. Our Teacher & Director Debbie Bristol TCRG founded the Rhythm of Ireland and began teaching the 1st ever Irish dance class in the Southeastern Virginia location.

Since that time, Mrs. Bristol has trained numerous champion dancers including World Championship medalists placing as high as 14th in the World!

Rhythm of Ireland dancers are consistently chosen to dance in touring Irish Dance Shows and many have danced at Celtic Fyre at Busch Gardens Williamsburg!

With a proven skilled and successful teacher of 25 years, we welcome beginners through champion dancers to our School! Join our Irish dancers and their families and enter ROI’s exciting world of Irish Dance!
