Irish Stepdance
Irish Stepdance originated in Ireland hundreds of years ago and has been popularized by world famous shows such as Lord of the Dance and Riverdance.
Traditional Irish Stepdance is characterized by a stiff upper body, whereas contemporary and performance Irish Stepdance uses arm and body movement along with rapid-fire and precise movements of the feet. Ceili (pronounced kaylee) and figure dances are group dances; other forms are performed solo.
