30th July 2021 - Irish Dancing Magazine is proud to announce the award-winning recipients of the 2021 Irish Dancing Teacher Awards. The global search recognizes excellence in teaching by honoring extraordinary dance teachers.

IDTANA Awards Scholarships

The pandemic affected many things, even scholarship programs for university students. But the Irish Dance Teachers Association (IDTANA) did not disappoint and forged ahead with their annual scholarship program, awarding a spectacular $22,500 worth of academic scholarships to worthy students.

University education in the US is one of the highest in the world. The average cost of tuition and fees for the 2020–2021 school year was $41,411 at private colleges and $11,171 for in-state residents at public colleges according to data reported by U.S. News. Add room, board, and incidentals, multiply this by the four or five years it takes for most students to earn their degree, and it is easy to see that a small fortune is needed to earn a college degree. With their scholarship program, the IDTANA seeks to ease this burden and reward Irish Dancers who excel both on and off the stage.
