We started our daily journey today at 10:15am so we could arrive on time to the dancing hall at 11:00am. Our destination and dream was to see the Irish culture of dancing and we wanted to learn ourselves.
We tried to learn these three types of Irish dancing:
- Siege of Ennis (group dance - 'ceili')
- Brush dance (old style - 'sean nós')
- Riverdance (modern professional)
We had a wonderful time with a lot of fun.
It was a really good opportunity to know and learn about Irish dancing, the main reason behind this was definitely our kind and talented teacher (Ronan O'Connell).
Who tried his best to teach us nicely and slowly every step of rhythm.
Our teacher and his group are fascinating individuals with a lot of followers on platforms like TikTok and Instagram with more than 5 millions of followers, he was even invited to perform in the White House in front of Joe Biden, the 46th president of the United States of America.
Their name on Instagram is: ‘_cairde’
The specialty of Irish dancing is that strong dancers work together to create rhythm, sounds and pictures. Irish Dance is an activity that supports heart and lung health. It supports flexibility, balance, muscle strength and agility, but it is also important not to forget to smile and look pleasant while you are dancing.
Unlike other dance forms, Irish dancers do not move their arms or hands so that footwork is accented.
In the evening Germany had a match against Hungary in the Euros 2024 and we watched it together to successfully support our home country.Læs mere
