Casey Costello
TCRG | ADCRG | IDTAC-er Regional Director
Casey began his dance career over 25 years ago. In solos, he won four Eastern Canadian Championship titles, placed 3rd in North America, and finished 8th in the World. In teams, he led his team to win fifteen Eastern Canadian Championship titles and to place 3rd at both the North American and World Championships.
Casey founded Costello Irish Dance in September 2015 to share his passion with the next generation of competitors in the Vaudreuil-Soulanges area. By combining his creative training in dance, his formal education in science, and his respect for youthful ambition, Casey creates a well-rounded experience for every dancer in the school.
In 2021 and again in 2023, Casey was the recipient of Irish Dancing Magazine's Award for Excellence in Teaching. He was among a select group of 20 certified teachers worldwide to receive the award and the only teacher in Canada to receive this award twice.

A foundation of discipline. A love of the process.
Not just through talent, but through a culture of discipline, dedication, and the choice to improve every day.
Every workout. Every repetition. Every choice to keep going. Success isn’t given. It’s earned.
Progress looks different on every dancer. We compete with respect and celebrate each other loudly.
Not because it’s easy. Because it’s worth it.
The work done in the studio and in the gym lays the foundation for every step on stage. Built through consistency. Forged through effort.
