Brian Shinners
An Irish dancer from Tipperary has been revealed as one of the most "successful and swiped-right daters" on Tinder in the UK and Ireland.
Twenty-eight year old primary school teacher Brian Shinners has been named as one of the most ‘swiped-right’ daters in the UK and Ireland after the popular dating site revealed the thirty "most-fancied" people using the app in an interview with Cosmopolitan magazine.
His Tinder bio reads: "Southern-Irish guy. Dancer in Riverdance and have travelled the world touring. Now teach kids. Primary-school teaching degree with German. Model. Love all sports; athletics, football, tennis. Animal lover – especially dogs!"
Brian, who began dancing with the Fleming Ball School of Irish Dancing when he was just three years old, is currently on tour as a member of Riverdance.
In the interview, the Tipperary man also revealed some of his tips to help budding romantics, suggesting daters avoid generic opening lines and instead start conversations by asking something personal in relation to a dates bio.
