Peig O’Connor

Peig’s Story

Peig began dancing at the age of 5 with the Lorraine Duggan School of Irish Dancing in Co. Cork, Ireland and 12 years later is still competing. She has achieved much success to date, having amassed both Munster and European titles, along with an Irish National title with her team.

Peig has travelled the world with her dancing career to destinations such as Boston, Montréal, Spain and the UK, gaining much experience throughout the years. A passion for performing and the electric atmosphere of a live show, meant Peig was destined for the stage and this year marks her second consecutive season as part of the Celtic Steps Dance Troop. While Irish Dancing is Peig’s first love, she also plays the fiddle and loves to go horse riding whenever she can.
