An all Ireland Champion is a massive accolade, however ,to be a World Champion is just phenomical considering how difficult is to learn and master the art
Man that ain’t nothing but tap dancing. He trying hard too. His best dancing is a walk in the park to greats like savion glover and Gregory Hines. It’s a good attempt though

Funny you should say that. I don't know if you live in the U.S., but a few years ago, Orkin, an exterminator company, had a really humorous commercial, where the woman had a problem with ants. Her husband told her to get a professional to deal with problem, so she hired an Irish dancer to "stomp" out the pests". He said ' no, get a professional" he was referring to Orkin exterminator. It's hilarious when you see it. In a commercial for another company, a couple is sitting in their living room complaining about the pumps. People assume they are talking about the water pumps, then the camera goes to the top floor showing a group of Irish dancers practicing their routine on a wooden floor. The pumps were a sly reference to the dancing shoes.
All Irish dancing does not involve keeping you hands down by your side only certain ones and the reason is that dances were held in small cottages with a crowd of people so there was no room to swing your arms around ,there is a belief that there is a moral aspect to it as in keeping you hands to yourself and not to be mauling the girl but I think that would be unlikely when you are concentrating on the tap at high speed
