Esther Pujol reached the highest level of competitive Irish dancing while training at one of the top schools in North America. She has competed nationally and has had the pleasure of performing at Carnegie Hall as well as with Grammy-award winners Eileen Ivers and Natale McMaster.
She passed her Teacher's Certification Exam through An Coimisiun Le Rince Gaelacha (Dublin, Ireland) in May 2015 and registered The Paloma School of Irish Dance that year. Esther is married and has two sons who both do Irish Dancing. Esther is also the President of the Lancaster Celtic Arts Foundation 501(c)(3) and the Chairperson of the Rose & Shamrock Festival. Esther believes strongly in the importance of using innovation to help others and has pioneered many new ideas to benefit the dancers as well as the community. She opened up one of the first consignment shops of its kind for her dance families, began a unique boys program at her school, headed the inaugural Celtic Night at the Barnstormers, and started many other inventive programs with the goal of serving others and helping dancers build confidence and self-esteem through being successful at Irish Dancing. |
