Strictly Irish Dancing (part 1) 

I remember many, many years ago, I did Irish dancing at primary school as it was just part of the curriculum, I went to school in Dublin. In those days our mum's put rags in our hair the night before to make the ringlets. I'm talking circa 1980!!

This girl Claiee, is so preety without the wigs, she really a beautiful irish girl.

Some people think that Irish dancing is so easy, but it is not!! You have to work so hard and practice so much!! Like if u agree!!❤️

Most people probably disagree but I think most dancers look really pretty in their costumes.

It is good to see men and women wearing kilts by dancing. Irish dancing is very good to do. It helps you to stay in shape by exercising your body. It allows you to learn about the Irish culture. My ancestors were Irish and Scottish. It makes happy to see Irish men and Irish women celebrating their culture everywhere they may go. Keep up the great work. Two thumbs up to you all.

Beautiful! My daughter currently dances. Love this video. Very informative.

I love Irish dancing

Johnny and Claire now live in Ireland and they teach me. They have their own Irish dancing school McMorrow. Their daughter went to Scotland one week ago and she won and she is only 7 or 8 Johnny has no emotion and Claire shouts a lot. But their both really good

Oh how I miss competitions. I need my current studio to get certified

Our boys wore a kilt when they danced in the early 80's. Looked so much better than pants.

Scottish and this takes me bk to my Irish dancing days

love it i think it was really good

I agree on the fake tan issue I’m a ballroom dancer and I have an autoimmune condition so can’t use fake tan

The dancing is what’s important

Ringlets were not compulsory either not all dancers had long hair. Just tidy hair was needed.

It is ridiculously expensive

I am part Irish through my great grandfather came from Ireland, what I was told, this is on my Mother's side and it is on her said,,I am glad to see it ,because I am from the UNITED STATES OF A AMERICA,,and from CALIFORNIA,,UNITED STATE OF AMERICA .DIANA KNIGHT (MY MOTHERS MADE NAME IS FIELDS)

Cool

Did they forget that Australians are just deported Irish?

A world champion told me that her and her sister practiced for four hours per day since she was a small child.

My niece was in Irish dancing and ballet for years. Apparently, she received many small injuries. I believe it’s called reflex sympathetic dystrophy. She’s now in her 30’s and walks with a cane.

Does anyone else always yell YESSSS when they mention your country 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿New Zealand🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿

I'm going to the worlds next year I can't wait

God bless Michael Flatley and everything he's done to change the face of Irish dancers. It's because of what he did with Riverdance that Irish dancers have a the possibility to dance professionally outside of opening their own school. I saw him dance live with Feet of Flames, and he was electrifying. I started Irish dancing when I was 12 but started tap dancing when I was 4. As a tapper, watching him dance is one of the most fascinating things I've ever seen in my life. Dance on, everybody!

I'm an irish dancer I'm going next year

Riverdance did not change Irish dance, it took over the tap but Irish dance is much more, I know because I am Irish. Just dance. 'Dance, dance where ever you may be I am The Lord of the dance he' The Dubliners and ou beloved Luke Kelly.

I think some of these people forget about Tap dancing 😂😂

THE GIRLS SHOULD BE ABLE TO WEAR SWEAT PANTS AS 5HEY PRACTICE THEIR DANCING

Greedy people make big money from this, making sure that only those with the most financial resources can afford to compete. It’s shameful. BOO

Only reason for being the butt of jokes as he said, is the arms and whole upper body. It looks absurd. I just try to keep my eye on legs

CLRG gonna become bankrupt now because of cheating .... lollll womp womp

I loved the simpler dresses of Riverdance. I hate the wigs.

believe in Jesus and be saved God bless

Please loose the wigs and makeup
