She is amazing!!! I really want to start learning how to Irish Dance, and Elizabeth is proving to be one of my biggest inspirations! And even though she may no longer be with us, she was such a graceful dancer and I can only DREAM of maybe one day being as good as her, what a beautiful soul! R.I.P Elizabeth.

[excitedMUSE14]

R.I.P Elizabeth...

[charlottecoffey]

yes she's good, but its ovbeous, she was born to irish dance!

[qMermaidq]

this is ridiculous! SHE IS SO GOOOD!

[Emikero]

I don't like these new dresses that are now preferred. I like the old ones with the hand embroidery that are worth hundreds and made of heavy velvet. Anyone else agree?

[jirihozpodebrad23]

@Emikero: i agree:)

[Emikero]

@jirihozpodebrad23 YAY!! :)

[poons54]

@Emikero

I agree liked the old style better



[poons54]

@Emikero 

[andsusul]

@Emikero Yeah, you mean the old dresses which weighed up to 30 pounds, which weren't flattering at all to the figure, which made it impossible to breathe, and were worth THOUSANDS, not hundreds. Oh, and made with layers upon layers of stiff silk, satin and velvet. Heat strokes ftw.

Oh, and modern dresses are just as expensive, if not more so. At least you can actually dance in them, and breathe. breathing is always nice.

[xAlethiax]

there's so much pressure in irish dance, on top of school and family and everything it can get overwhelming. rest in peace lily.

[GlamourousGirl96]

god she is absoulutely amazing!

[pareapairofpears]

@Tilara Thank you so much!

[danielle1231828]

their all very good

[lolitadoll646]

I cant do that anymore. WHY DID I STOP DANCING!!!!!

[TVrawks301]

@lolitadoll646 It's never too late to start again when you're ready... :)

[natali601]

Rip,You will missed,She died of suicide,she was depressed and mad that she worked hard trying to get on the lord of dance,but she leted go.RIP,She lived the maximum but it was too short.

[LeaDance1]

She will be resting with the irish dancing gods, what a talent, what an angel!

[urso2knlateimso2kn10]

you know the last guy at the end? he must have been fell of the stage when flew away and the camera cant chase him lol FAIL!!!!

[georgina22irish]

@urso2knlateimso2kn10 that's danny jackson and no he didn't fly off the stage! i was there but it does seem like it from watching this

[pareapairofpears]

omg I've been looking for this song for forever!

Does anyone know what it is please?

[Candyswan]

@pareapairofpears glasgow reel

[Tilara]

@pareapairofpears the song is called "B Minor" by Leahy

[LeaMurphy789]

She will be resting with the Irish Dancing Gods.What a talent !

[SuperJwa]

Which dance shool was she at?

[Sztriki86]

I didn't know her,so I have no idea what exactly drove her to let go,but it's none of my business anyway.I'm just wondering,if she saw these comments,maybe she would've taken more strength to carry on,however bad she felt.I can't help admiring her skill,technique,and my god,her ability to fly!I wish I could get half as good in my dancing!I'm sure that all of us,who've had the privilege to see her dance(live or video),are grateful,to have such inspiration because of this one greatly talented soul

[suuuuuupQ]

amazing...... rip :( i heard she was a great dancer

[Lizzyke4576]

She's amazing :o

Too bad she's no more with us :(

Does anyone know where I can find more videos of her dancing talent?

[IrishDancerXOX]

Omg she was such a good dancer... <3 rip

[STHFGDBY]

Depression is a silent killer. Its so sad. She was beautiful and talanted. She must have been crying inside for years.

[IrishDancerKaty]

OMG did she really commit suicide why though she was so talented!

[maeve628]

what??? because of exam pressure??????????? RIP

[ALEXindiechick]

rip. </3

[xxxGOLDENGALxxx]

omg, seen this vid a few times, i'm an irish dancer myself, it still seem so unfair that she felt the need to kill herself, when she was so talented.....what a tragedy! R.I.P

[Caitlynsirisheyes]

It's a shame that some so great would kill herself.............RIP Dear.....RIP..........to all the irish dancers out there from another keep up the good work!!!!!!!!

[anetan007]

Omg, it's... fantastic

[xIrishDancerrx]

RIP. her dancing still leaves me with my jaw dropped even after the amount of times i have watched this video !!

[irishgurl44]

wow she is amazing rip lily

[shannon1988x]

RIP lilly. U are an inspiration and will always be in out hearts xXx♥

[epoilpre]

she is soo good! why did she commit suicide?? shes amazing!

[JodieRoxSox99]

@epoilpre It's so sad itsn't it ? She commited suicide because of exam pressure.

[reeltreble52197]

omg this is so sad.

she is amazing, i am a competitive irish dancer and i will never be able to dance that well. she is brilliant. R.I.P. elizabeth claro. its so sad she didnt want to be here anymore............rest in peace

[Eirinn967]

when did she die?

And How old was she? x

[Scriipto]

I am quite late on this, but she IS a wonderful dancer. I do not like to put WAS because if she WAS a wonderful dancer she would not be in our hearts. All her dances are beautiful. To answer some peoples question, you may seem happy to the outside world but you can feel depressed on the inside. Never take a persons outside look for granted, it could all be a lie.

One last thing. Many are saying "we lost a talented person" is someone wasn't talented in something, would they still be missed? Think

[lozakiller]

JUMP STYLE!!!

Hardcore!!

LOL

[XpatdxrocksxmyxsoxX]

Stunning dancer.

[MedicatingPerfection]

Rip Lily.

[lujov]

its just the style to go with the dress i think im an irish dancer lol and im not even sure what there for

[DANi3LL3DANC3R]

we wear wigs lol.

[lockedinsideurhsbox]

It was tradition to curl your hair for a competition. now we wear wigs because its easier.

[SimpleBum]

it's traditional to curl your hair to dance and to save time wigs were invented lol it is really handy and a lot less painful than sleeping in rollers!

[zefronftw]

sucidie....

[kandjrox]

she is amazing

[Ceiligirl]

Not surprised she won. Absolutely STUNNING dancer.

[magpie4321]

Now that is what I call dancing!

[firehair90]

[lujov]

[Zackary2514]

suicide.. :,(

[qMermaidq]

now that ladies and gentlemen is how you irish dance

[bluemelons101]

wow shes amazing!

[EvanescenceBella]

I think its a bit too personal to ask how she died---

she should be remembered as a fantastic dancer!

her leaps are INCREDIBLE- she looks like shes floating!

[DoesntEat]

SHE'S ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! I have never seen a dancer like her! She is like a bird...she could touch the sky...Very sad loss for irish dance community..R.I.P.

[irishgirln1]

How did she die?

[Kp1O]

well, the last dancer was too fast for the camera :-)

looks very good

[jirihozpodebrad23]

oh my goodness - this girl is absolutely AMAZING!!! i couldn't stop myself from replying this beautiful step all the time, what a fairy she is... so sad to read that she didn't want to be here anymore:(... i hope she's happy now, wherever her soul is. R.I.P.

[ermleatheryeh]

I think some people need to be careful what they say on here. This is a sad loss to the irish dance community and there are some people being very rude and poking fun! I dont see anything remotely funny about the loss of a talented young girl. Grow up and I just hope you dont have to face what her family has faced in the future!

[AnimeLuvr001]

These dancers are amazing, it almost looks like they are flying!

[XxDogs27xX]

I am a irish dancer but never been able do dance like her.. R.I.P Lily

[awsomexXxrandomness]

[tigerarmyrule]

Beautiful girl. Spectacular dancer. RIP.

[Gigdoat]

[xxxPinkBananasxxx]

[LydiaLuvsMJ]

Its very funny to get an Irish band (such as Shenanigans) to play at a wedding, al the drunk adults get up and pretend to dance like this lol

Éirinn go Brách (Ireland forever)

[backpacc]

oh she is just the most graceful dancer! I will be as good as her one day =) She has danced for 17 years is that what it said? well damn!! lol she is wonderful

[Cecy247]

OMG SHE CAN FLY!!!

[b5lovermore]

[FeisGirl]

Practice.

[Chickofmanywonders]

lots of practice and upper and lower body strenth(spelled wrong)

[SonyaNatalia]

You can really see how her ballet training made her a better Irish dancer. She is so polished and her movments are gorgeous.

[quejyaille]

[rosered17]

[quhawks48]

[Flamingogrl5]

that's so freakin sad!!! i didn't even read the comments, and i was just thinking dang this girl is super good, then i read them and was really confused about all the "rip" stuff. so i went on google and searched her name...apparently she commited suicide 2 years ago. why did such a beautiful happy dancer do this?? i guess you can't explain it, and she is a beautiful dancer and may she rest in peace, and in every dancers heart always. <3

[Featherfawn]

Elizabeth Claro - your dancing is amazing! What have you placed? Worlds?

There are 229 comments one here for this beautiful girl. That's 229 private prayers if you all give just a few seconds to pray for her next time you go to bed. If you've never prayed before, maybe you could say these words, quiety and on your own...

Holy Mary

Pray for our beautiful sister Elizabeth.

Show her the glory of heaven and lead her to our Lord Jesus Christ.

Show her parents the glory of God

And keep her safe in the light and warmth of the Holy Spirit.

Amen

God bless her xx
