About the dance

Irish dancing is so old in its form that some people consider that its roots lay in druidic rituals of pre-Christian Hibernia.
It changed throughout the centuries, taking influences from ballet, court dancing and for the last two decades of live spectacle.
Big productions, like Riverdance and Lord of the Dance are well known all over the world.
People worldwide fell in love with Irish dancing. Although it is not as popular as salsa, tango or hip-hop dancing, more and more young people want to join in and try out this energetic, rhythmic, demanding but exiting dancing style.
