Photos: Riverdance stars take a break from Salt Lake performances to give a master class to young Utah Irish dance students

Irish dance students at La Rae’s Dance Unlimited studio in Layton received a lesson from the masters Wednesday during a special class led by “Riverdance” performers Ellen Bonner and Louise O’Sullivan.

The two are dance captains in Riverdance’s 20th-anniversary world tour, with performances continuing through Sunday at the Eccles Theater in Salt Lake City. Inspired by Irish traditions, performers propel Irish dancing and music into the present day in an innovative blend of dance, music and song.
