Irish dance, all in one place.

I started Planxti as a dancer during the 2020 COVID pandemic. As someone on both the dancer and feis administration side of things, I was talking to many of my friends who usually are vendors at feiseanna multiple weekends a month. They were struggling to connect with schools and dance families to continue to support dancers with the shoes and supplies they need to compete online. I realized I had the skills to help. I created a website to try and connect online fesieanna with sponsoring vendors, and it just continued to grow from there.

Later, as a teacher, I saw the other side. Keeping my school's details current meant updating several dance organization pages and keeping them all in sync. Most families, especially new ones, never look there because they don't know the regional lists exist. Planxti brings school, feis, and other information all into one place. With the goal of reaching dancers and families who are already part of Irish dance and for anyone taking their first step into the Irish dance world.

After being supported by the Irish dance community for a long time, I feel like this is my way of giving back. Using my professional skills from my full time job along with my experience as a dancer, tabulator, teacher, and "dance parent" to support dance families, feiseanna, and schools around the world. Connecting everyone and extending the reach of Irish dance.
