Irish Step Dance, sometimes called Riverdance has become popular all over the world from touring shows such as Lord of the Dance. This rich, energetic and sexy dance style consist of : - soft shoe dancing, which resembles classical ballet dancing, though it is more athletic with lifts where precise movements and positioning are at the core.- heavy shoe dancing which is similar to tap shoe dancing in terms of creating rhythms with the shoes. The style and atmosphere are different altogether though. Irish Step dance is a solo dance style which is performed in group as a choreography for performances only. A great thing about Irish dancing is that as with fashion, dances and costumes never stop to evolve. Of course, a dancer needs to learn the basic technique with traditional elements first, in order to start with the fancy stuff. With us, a correct technique is taught from the beginning in balance with ‘fun to dance’. Dance doesn’t go without good technique nor without pleasure. Hence we motivate our dancers to compete., though this is certainly no must. One starts best with Irish dancing at a young age. However, in Europe, Irish dance is also popular with adults. We are happy to teach all ages to dance Irish. Classes in Brussels & Antwerp-Brasschaat, Belgium Website: https://eireann-academy.com/
