‘Doctors Said I’d Never Dance Again!’

Some people are born with a gift and for Wellington’s Johanna Scott, her gift is dance. Specifically, Irish dance.

“I was just four when I walked past an Irish dance class at the Plimmerton School hall and Mum suggested we take a look” Johanna tells from Kalgoorlie, Australia, where she’s currently on tour with Celtic Illusion, the Irish dance extravaganza that has been thrilling audiences for 13 years. “That was my very first class and immediately I loved it.”
