wow. I mean- WOW. I used to learn this stuff under these guys :D so weird... I stopped after a while but I see these people have sure developed their own style... everything changes, we have to face it. I think it's brave and unique and it does keep traditional irish dancing, while making it more enjoyable for someone who might not be into the stiff upper body thing. sure, I love the good old stuff by Jean Butler and Colin Dunne too... but these guys are amazing as well. great job!

I love the hands moving. In real traditional dancing still seen in the west of Ireland people used to freely more their arms. it's more natural.

This honestly seems like a mixture between American tap dancing and Irish step dancing. I dunno if I should enjoy it or not. Definitely an interesting combo though!

@MantisSage 15 жыл бұрын

I like it! It's fresh and I like the more natural feeling with the arm movement- it looks like the girls would be more comfortable, which in turn makes me feel more comfortable. Maybe you will start a new trend (by which I mean reviving an old trend :)

You people who keep saying its not irish dancing remind me of the judges at a competition who are of the opinion that a solo dress somehow makes the dancer. The arm movement doesn't not make it Irish dancing..as many have stated, myself included, this is SHOW dancing. This is NOT traditional nor is it meant to be.

It isn't their arms moving that disappoints me, it's their hips moving. Seriously, compared to what we are doing during trainings, this could be belly dance!

I can't help but wonder if most pf the people that are posting are actual Irish dancers. Show dancing is typically different from traditional stuff. Even Riverdance isn't entirely traditional. The amount of times irish dancers have their hands on their hips in traditional, competitive irish dancing...is well in my experience...never. I danced irish for 10 years competitively. We're usually taught early that performance dancing is much more interperative.

It´s Stephen Scariff. I´m afraid that this show is not going to tour as he lives and teaches in Austria. This video is quite old...

i don't like how they move their arms so much...that's what is supposed to set Irish dance apart from other dances is that your upper body is supposed to remaine completely straight. It was almost too similar to regular tap dancing. Other than that it is a great video.

Is the name of the blonde in the lead Agnes Hollaubek?

@wannaknowit291 5 жыл бұрын

Yeah she is Hollaubek Ágnes. The other blonde lass in the group is hungarian as well. The black haired girl is originally from Taiwan, Taipei. She spent the majority of her childhood in Hungary though, and she is now in Taipei, has her own irish stepdance school. The male lead dancers are Stephen Scariff (the blonde, curly haired), he is from Galway, Ireland, but now lives in Florida, Tampa, has his own irish stepdance school there. The other lead, the 'mean' guy is Ronan Morgan, from Ireland too, Dublin. He spent almost 20 years in Budapest, Hungary teaching irish stepdance. Not sure where he is residing at the moment, he often goes to Taipei to help out the taiwanese girl, Hsiao-Yi-Han in her school.He has several irish stepdance schools. Nice memories..

@fernski9 15 жыл бұрын

I hope you are joking. 1) Irish genes are not required to be a traditional Irish dancer and 2) the excellent dancer you singled out could very well have been born and raised in Ireland just as much as any of the other dancers (which of course is irrelevant because of #1)

I liked it. If you are going to incorporate arm movements into your step dancing PLEASE get some input from a modern or lyrical dance expert. In my amateur opinion, these folks are mostly pretty good (esp. I think the guy in black) but honestly, there are some other clips out there were the arm movements are complete rubbish and they would have been much more enjoyable if the dancer had just stuck to what they were originally trained to do instead of flinging their arms around aimlessly.

Trying to take an old style of dance and spruce it up with 2007's electronica/technological advancements in music...Techno. I like Techno, but I don't think techno and irish dance go together... Also they're trying to copy Michael Flatley, by moving their arms...I guess they were impressive if you overlook all I just said...

Irish dancers are not supposed to swing thier arms all over the place like that or dress like they're going to a line dancing class. They're making a mockery of our culture. And i bet not one of them are irish, well the asian chick clearly proves that. Ive seen everything now.

@riyd67 16 жыл бұрын

Well Flatley certainly killed the tradition of irish dancing and now this group have demolished it even further. As an irish dancer, although this is "trendy", the tradition has gone and therefore its all show and no skill value for me. Can't we get back to basics?????
