TESTIMONIALS
James Devine the world’s fastest tap dancer treated our intermediate and advanced tap dancers at the PPA (Performance Preparation Academy) in Epsom to a Rhythm Tap Workshop. The students coped amazingly well with the session and he was very impressed with their standard of tap. The students then went to see James’s show at The Epsom Playhouse that evening.

As instructor at our all day sean-nós jig festival, we could not have had a better teacher than James Devine at Féile Chóilín Sheáin Dharach. He taught his own close-to-the-floor traditional steps with flair and dedication. We received tremendous praise from his students about his thoroughness and patience. Later he proved to be an inspiring participant in ancillary festival events such as the half-door and barrel dancing exhibitions.

As a tap dance leader James Devine was the full package. He taught his own unique style of Celtic Tap and shared his great experience and knowledge of setting tap against those infectious and intricate Celtic rhythms of Ireland with flair and dedication. He was a stickler for detail and drilled the dancers until they could do his steps. The workshop was sold out weeks in advance.
