The Greene School of Irish Dancing began in 1940 in Glasgow, Scotland, under the direction of Maureen Lynch Greene. In 1962, she relocated her school to Boston, where her daughter and granddaughters are still teaching today. Since then, our school has worked to promote Irish Culture through dance. Over the years, the school has attained many awards in regional, national, and world championship competitions, with two first place titles in the All-World Championships in Ireland, as well as other placements in World Competition.

In 2007, our founder, Maureen Greene, was presented the Gradam Award at the World Championships in Glasgow. The Gradam Award is presented to those who have spent a lifetime working diligently to safeguard and preserve An Rince Gaelacha and also to acknowledge and appreciate their contributions to An Coimisiun.
