About Us

The Brady Academy was founded in 2005 under the direction of Brendan Brady TCRG (Certified Teacher) and ADCRG (Adjudicator). Brendan is a former World Champion holding various titles which include: The All Irelands, and All Englands Dance Championships. Brendan began teaching in Galway, Ireland and now wishes to keep Irish dance tradition alive in the Squantum area of Quincy, MA. He is registered with An Coimisiún le Rincí Gaelacha in Dublin, Ireland. He is also a member of the Irish Dance Teachers Association of New England and North America.

In just 15 short years, our dancers have achieved great success in the competitive arena. Some of their accomplishments include: North American Ceili Champions along with New England Regional Titles, Traditional Set Titles, and dancers who have medaled internationally at the All Irelands and the World Irish Dance Championships.
