❤😂 every irish child learns to dance not all keep it up some go pro.😊 yes the music is in my soul! Its like your US tap but no arms swinging😅🇮🇪 best wishes
I will never understand how these amazing dancers are able to remember and perfectly recall all of insane number of steps and their correct order - especially to keep in such perfect synchronisation as they do!! It's so amazing and fun to watch! Just gets you right in the mood to do some dancing yourself! :)
@@gallowglass2630 Oh yeah, that's a good point. Amazing right?! My aunt used to be a tap-dancer back in her youthful days and she even won competitions. I wish I could have seen her at her height.
You just memorize it. I can’t explain. Timing is the most important thing to learn and once you know it, you can dance with a group with ease. Another thing to note is that these kids are doing pretty simple steps making it easier to stay in time. In solos it’s more complex.
Just because I'm from Ireland I'm probably biest but Irish Dancing with the music is the most intertertaining in the world. It has stood the test of time, hundreds of years while we were opresssed by the British and thousands of hours of practice. From every City to tiny village has a dancing school. It was there ever before Riverdance or Feet of Flames but Flatley and Whelan definitely put it Global. Absolutely enthralling. 👍👍👍🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪, Thanks for sharing 👍
Hi Steve it’s Irish dancing & taught from beginning of their childhood! I’m a Brit living in Australia & there are dance schools here that teach Irish ☘️ dancing! No wonder you legs were going it’s in the blood ! I’m sure it must be taught in U S ! You must watch River dance it’s amazing!
I started Irish dance at 3yrs old and continued into my early 20's. I love it as do my children and grandchildren but I will say it catches up to you later, I have many issues with my legs, hip, spine and feet which I'm told by my gp is a direct result of it.
Original style of Irish dancing with arms straight by the side. Riverdance was a completly new and never been done before Oh and yes Ii have see riverdance live on stage with the two original reads dancers and so much better than watchin on here
There is also a brilliant flash mob in Bristol of Zorba the Greek It was organised by the University of Bristol and the University of the West Country Greek and Cypriot societies There are lots of these all over TH-cam mostly choirs
So chuffed (pleased) you chose this one to watch- I was someone who suggested it to you (though there may well be others, of course). No idea what happened to the music- it was all there when I watched it a few weeks ago? The reason the Irish airline ad was there is, I think, because it was an event sponsored by them.
We learn early I Ireland. I started classes at 4 years old, but apparently I learnt moves before that. My grand daughter started at 5 years. We often have a dance session. I,m 69 and it keeps me going and keeps me slim.
Lol, my hometown. I used to work at Lakeside. To the right of the lift on the second floor - a jewellery store. Looking in the crowds to see if I recognise anyone 😂
We started irish dancing from aged about 5. It's not unusual in Ireland. Later we had a lot of fun set dancing (another kind of Irish dance) all over Ireland.
The best Flash Mob by far was the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University in Greenacres shopping centre about twelve years ago Steve. Just watch it - the faces of the onlookers enjoying the experience just brightens up the dreariest day, and the singing in harmony was brilliant.
Google Irish step dancing and there are a LOT of videos on You Tube. The Irish dancers will often dance at weddings. Irish step dancing enjoyed a lot of popularity with Irish families and dance studios sprung up all over the US.
I think the music was cut for copyright issues. These events are often sponsored by the Irish Tourism Board to promote Ireland or Irish companies overseas hence all the white tshirts at the end
@@101steel4 Born in Mile End and they moved us out to a new town and called it Basildon and then they forgot they had built it and it fell apart and then they built it again ! now in Bromley via Plaistow, Elephant and Castle.
I think the music went perhaps due to copyright. It is possible to learn Irish dancing in America. Michael Flatley creator of Riverdance is American and learned his Irish dancing in America first before getting extra training with an expert in Ireland later on. I am Scottish and we have Scottish Highland dancing where on some dances they dance over crossed swords on the floor. Many Scottish have Irish heritage so you can learn both styles but most people focus on one style.
Look up the one and only Michael Flatley his show Feet of flames one of the best things I have watched . I think at the time he had the fastest feet for dancing
never too old to give it a try. I used to live in ireland and sometimes in the backroom of pubs they organize irish dance for all ages and skill level, including newbies, everyone is welcome. you just go there on the day, have a pint (irish glass of beer) and join the fun. also, I'm pretty sure google can tell you where to find schools or maybe even local events in your region. after all, there a countless americans of irish heritage, so many that you even got a st.patrick's parade. 🍀🌈🤗
There is nearly as much irish dancing outside ireland as in it,because of the huge irish diaspora.Its something that continues through the generations as you can see here this is in england and these kids probably have irish parents or grandparents.Its the same in america irish americans have continued on the tradition.They are also dances like clogging and flatfooting from america that developed from irish and scottish dances.

Yes it's a pity the music cut out. There aer two main styles of Irish music: the slow more mournful kind and the jigs, like this. There are places in the US that teach `Irish dancing. There are short videos I keep seeing of two brothers who were/are part of the Riverdance troupe. They dance to various modern songs and it's a lot of fun. Tehy're called the Gardiner Brothers and appear to be twins, but may not be, and are US born of Irish heritage. Worth checking out. :)
This is Irish dancing. In Lancashire and Yorkshire a form of this is called clogging. Its the roots from which tap dancing originated. There are classes anywhere there is a strong Irish community.
They probably got copyright stricken for the music unfortunately coz the music changed to modern dance music as I remember seeing this before it was silenced. How dare you silence the Irish TH-cam!!!
Check out Michael Flatleys Lord of the Dance or Feet of Flames (he is the male dancer in the first Riverdance show. Personally, I think that Lord of the Dance is so much better than Riverdance.
You should have a look at Gaelic games ,hurling and gaelic football which are a huge part of irish identity and are still among irelands most popular sports.Generally you should do more sport ,apart from motor sport you haven't really done much on sport.While motor sport has a big following its still fairly niche, you should have a look at the most popular sports in UK and Ireland aswell which you haven't except for football chants.

There are lots of different Flash Dancing Videos, not just Irish.There are Flash Dances from all the Emergency Services, from the Military to secret Marrage Proposals.
The thing they never show you is when they are practising they always hold a carrier bag full of potatoes in each hand to stop them waving their arms around.
Thank you. I really enjoyed this. Can’t believe you haven’t seen an dance flash mob before. I don’t know if this falls into your scope, as it is not from the British Isles or is Irish dancing - but this Dance flash mob is brilliant th-cam.com/video/s_hlvRNgGOQ/w-d-xo.html
not really a flash mob, a flash mob is meant to be unexpected with 1 or 2 starting, then it looks like everyone is dancing, this was sealed off and they come in 1 at a time, not unexpected
feature irish dotvillearmy un peace keeping mision in africa particularly the siege of Jadotville the film is close to the truth I know as my unit relieved these gallant men
Irish dancing has been done to death here now, mainly because of Riverdance. People in the dancing community love it but I think increasingly in the general populace its seen as a bit of a joke..., a bit like Monty Pythons Ministry of silly walks..
@@101steel4 A lot of irish dance purists don't like it either.I prefer the older forms like Sean nos,ceili and set dance which allow free movement of the arms.There has been allegations which are almost certainly true of fixing in the competitions,plus it has become about the best dressed dancer not the best dancer.

There are very many Irish Dance schools all over the UK and the world....brilliant to watch 👏👏👏👏
I tried an Irish dancing class eighteen years ago. I'm still going :) I can't leave, it's too much fun
Irish Dancing is so impressive! The music is wonderful, the synchronicity on point. It blows my mind every time
this music and dancing realy puts you in a very happy mood i just love the lrish and there music and dancing

David Struve bare in mind also that 90% of irish stepdancing is solo,yet they are still able to come together like this.

A good word to describe these things is 'JOYFUL'

The dance school is named McGahan-Lees. They belong to the CLRG organization which is the biggest Irish dance body.
I absolutely love Irish dance...on my next visit to see my friend there in Ireland im requesting a night of Irish dance..😊
I'm fro. Northern ireland I did irish dancing when I was a kid
Another Eurovison Interval which is brilliant Don't go by the Hothouse Flowers (1988)
You should Google guiness brewery irish dancers with drummer flash mob. They put on a fantastic show, enjoy. Debbie from Dublin, 🇮🇪
You should check out Set dancing at a Ceili.
Hours of real fun.
There is also a brilliant flash mob in Bristol of Zorba the Greek
It was organised by the University of Bristol and the University of the West Country Greek and Cypriot societies

I'm in the UK and used to dance in an Appalachian dance group. Just as much fun.
I live in Essex close to lakeside shopping centre (mall), not seen this there though:')
We learn it in school and some people join a club and enter competitions. We stop learning it when we go to secondary school (high school)
So chuffed (pleased) you chose this one to watch- I was someone who suggested it to you (though there may well be others, of course).
No idea what happened to the music- it was all there when I watched it a few weeks ago?

It's an Irish dance school for sure as those dancers are of various levels. xx
The Scottish Highland Fling is somewhat in the same area as this type of dancing. I learned in when I was a teenager.
Tapped so hard the music cut off 😂😂
I lived within 10 miles of lakeside for 49 years.

There must be plenty of Irish dancing classes in the US. As most people living there claim to be Irish 😁
Irish dance is in North America. Mum of two Canadian Irish dancers who just danced at the World Championships in Montreal in April.
Your f u c k I n g right there lad
I mean, Michael Flatley and Jean Butler are both Americans.
Steve, if you love Irish Dancing then check out the Gardiner Brothers videos and shorts.
We started irish dancing from aged about 5. It's not unusual in Ireland. Later we had a lot of fun set dancing (another kind of Irish dance) all over Ireland.
I still have a copy of the video where the music didn’t cut out
looks like lakeside shopping center in essex lol thanks for the video keep up the good work mate 👍

You should watch ...Take the floor flashmob dublin airport...the dancers are fab
You would love the song "The Foggy Dew" by Sinead O'Connor and the Chieftains
Since you showed it 2 weeks ago, there are
loads on youtube now,one were a toddler tries to copy the younger lad and girls.
Huge Irish dancing community in every state in America
They also have costumes specific to the Irish.
I think the music was cut for copyright issues. These events are often sponsored by the Irish Tourism Board to promote Ireland or Irish companies overseas hence all the white tshirts at the end
Check out clog dancing and Morris dancing too
Irish Dance is always so fascinating to me because it looks like they've never heard of gravity.
Or arms 😂
@@101steel4 that was so the English could not tell we were dancing ,when passed windows and or over walls hedges as they barred it...
OMG Essex - I grew up in Basildon But I escaped !
Where to?
I lived in London and escaped to Essex* lol. Just shows how bad London is.
*Not basildon 😂

You should watch "Steps of Freedom". It's the story of the history of Irish dancing.
My feet were going too Steve.
GUINESS IN AMERICA IS ALSO BREWED WITH AMERICAN WATER IT MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE!
The sound might have been blocked on the second song by youtube due to music copyright restrictions in different countries, just a thought!
Did you ever see the original T-Mobile flashmob in London?
What a miserable lot in the audience, how can you not smile? love Riverdance.
