Irish Dancing
Irish dancing is a type of recreational and competitive folk dance that has been popularized by the stage productions such as Riverdance" and Lord of the Dance." Although it is most widespread in Ireland, it is also found in other parts of the world. When performed as a solo dance, a stiff upper body and the quick and precise movements of the feet generally characterize it. Couples also dance with other couples, in a manner similar to a square dance, and larger groups of people can dance traditional céilí dances, in which the steps are prescribed.
