Irish Step Dancing

Irish Step Dancing is a type of performance dance originating in Ireland from traditional Irish dance. Irish stepdancing has been recently popularized by the world-famous show "Riverdance" and its followers. Aside from public dance performances, there are also stepdance competitions all over the world.

 

 

 

When performed as a solo dance, it is generally characterized by a stiff upper body and the quick and precise movements of the feet.

We started Irish Stepdancing when our family's musical band began performing a lot of Celtic music and exploring our Scots-Irish roots. We have a lot of fun dancing reels and jigs along with our family's bagpipe music and Celtic ensemble.
