About Us

Diana Ryan, director of Shine Dance Society has always had a profound passion for dance and singing. From a young age, she immersed herself in the art of movement, studying and practicing various styles, including disco freestyle, hip hop, musical theatre, commercial, and lyrical dance and has been crowned All-Ireland Dance Champion on numerous occasions. Diana also has studied classical voice training and performed in many musical theatre productions. Over the course of almost 30 years, Diana’s experience and expertise have grown exponentially.

Dance, singing and performing has always been a source of joy and excitement for Diana. It’s where she feels most alive, most herself, and most free and as a mother of two beautiful children, she knows firsthand the importance of cultivating self-esteem, confidence, and a strong sense of self-worth.

Diana believes that every person has the potential to “shine like the star that you are!” – it just takes a little bit of guidance, patience, and encouragement. She understands what it’s like to feel insecure and unsure of oneself in a dance class, and she’s dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment where kids and adults can feel empowered to be their best selves.

For Diana, dance isn’t just a physical activity – it’s a transformative experience that can help people shift their emotions, find pure joy and bliss, and connect with themselves on a deeper level. Her business isn’t just about teaching dance steps; it’s about creating a community where people can come together, express themselves, and experience the transformative power of movement and mindfulness.

Through her work, Diana hopes to inspire people to embrace their creativity, build their confidence, and discover the incredible freedom and joy that comes from expressing themselves through dance and singing.
