About RHID
History of the Rebel Heart Irish Dancers
Rebel Heart Irish Dancers have quickly built a solid reputation with our unique choreography and stage presence. Our extensive performance resumé continues to expand since our inception in January, 2007. Among our accomplishments are collaborations with the world fusion band, Celtic Crossroads and Scythian, and with local bands Across the Pond, Fire in the Glen, The Seasons Band and the Celtic Martins. We have produced five stage shows, and four collaboration benefit performances Celtic Celebrations which raised over $18,500.
Throughout the year, Rebel Heart dancers attract audiences at Irish pubs, large community festivals, multi-cultural events, charity fund-raisers, and other venues in Central PA. We continue to expand our touring ventures after successful performances in central Pennsylvania and Philadelphia, New Jersey, Ohio, Maryland, Georgia, Montana, and California. Rebel Heart has also developed a program to educate, inspire, and motivate students to get involved with the arts. Designed for schools, libraries, and college groups, this entertaining presentation has been praised by students and teachers alike. |
A note from the Director:
"The seed of an idea planted in the mind of a young person can grow and become far greater than anyone had ever intended or imagined. Dream big; never let anyone tell you that you can't - and when they do, prove them wrong."

Miss Stephanie
Founder, Director |
Miss Stephanie has danced and performed her entire life. Although her original dance training was in classical ballet, she discovered her love for Irish dance and has been extremely passionate about dance ever since. After several years of traditional Irish dance class, teaching, competition, over 35 awards and two trips to Ireland, she realized her passion for choreography and performance... And so Rebel Heart was formed.
Miss Stephanie's dreams have come true through the Rebel Heart Irish Dancers: making a difference in the lives of others, young and old alike through sharing her true passions, and enjoying the ablilty to be creative. She has produced five successful staged shows for RHID as well as designed and contructed all the costumes, light design and set for her touring show Enchantment of the Dance. Miss Stephanie would like to thank her family for all their support and encouragement. She would also like to thank her wonderful dancers for their undying commitment and their parents for all their contributions. Miss Stephanie has her Doctorate in Physical Therapy. |
