irish dance used to have hand movements, similar to ballet. when christianity moved into ireland, they band dancing cause they felt it was a pagan ritual, but the irish were able to do it if they left out the arm bits. michael flatley uses a lot of arm movements from ballet to try to bring the original concepts back from the dead.

first before you start teaching or whatever you call what your doing try to learn how to dance. when you hop you look like a freakin chicken or something! straight knees, yo! take it from girls who know how to dance.
have you heared about color contrast?!? it's really hard to follow your speed with black clothes on black background and whats up with the camera in some of the vids, I want to learn to dance, which means I need to see your feet, not your face.
so . . . all you do is jump with one foot and hit the top of your foot against the floor front and back? its looks more complicated when you hear the awesome sound from the shoes
i know the dominic graham school of irish dancing and i compete against them back in northern ireland :D abd can i just say not to be blowing my own trumpet but i have been dancin for 10years and i can dance better than her and i have never even made it to the ulsters apart from team dances so how in the hell could she of got 6th
...i was asking myself if it was just me or if it really was like that! yeah, the knees need to be all streched through. but she does lovely turn outs!
i've been practicing for 2 hours and i still can't do the thing, not even slow without ruining at least 2 steps, damn i am angry!

the black on the couch and the black stockings make it kinda hard to see your feet moving untill you pick your leg up.
