Betty Sheehan (TCRG) has been dancing since she learned to walk. Early on, she showed an affinity for percussive dance, much to the chagrin of her mother, who long lamented her much-scuffed kitchen floor. Betty studied Irish Dancing with Marie Moore, TCRG/ADCRG, in New York, and competed at the local, regional, and national levels during her competitive career. In 2005, she sat and passed the rigorous TCRG examination, and is now a registered teacher with An Coimisiun in Ireland.
