King of the Fairies

[drunkiemee]

any chance this person dances for trinity?

[michaelafromBOSSTOWN]

If I'm right there's 2 versions of KotF. One is danced to a trad. HP (like 138) and the other is danced to an Oireachtas speed HP (113-ish). The trad. is the 138 one. This is slower than 138 so I'm assuming it's non-trad.

[LadyPaix]

This is a non-trad set yet these steps are the same in Amanda White's video. Maybe they attend the same school??

[RebiTitanic]

king of faries is a traditional set and a non-trad set. So there is set steps but the music can be used for non-trad sets. This is obviously a non-trad set

[jngwatson]

Very nice . . . too bad the video quality itself isn't as good as the dancer.

[amyxxbabixx111]

if you do st pattricks day theres clicks?

[irishdancerguy]

if she did that in a competition she would be disqulified as you can not do cliks in a traditional set dance

[stepdancer1992]

@irishdancerguy This is actually a non trad set. I don't think she would be disqualified, but correct me if I'm wrong.

[irishdancerguy]

@stepdancer1992 woops sorry i thought it was a trad sorry

[stepdancer1992]

@irishdancerguy No problem!! KotF is also a trad set, but this version is non-trad.

[Strifedragondude]

@irishdancerguy there were several clicks in my set dance... its been a couple years tho, so maybe the rules have changed lol

[irishdancerguy]

@Strifedragondude woops sorry i thought it was a trad sorry

[irishdancerguy]

that class beats

[nickygal255]

gahhh!!!!!!!!1 i cant do the stupid set!!! im stuck with job of jouneywork -_-

[workkmeoutt]

Not enough technicality in this what so ever.

[TimothyLeDancer]

@workkmeoutt I'd love to see you even attempt to come ANYWHERE near to as good as her.

[workkmeoutt]

@TimothyLeDancer

well you could see me dance when I upload videos after this show is done. I am a dancer for Celtic Fyre at Busch Gardens in the Irish Dancing show, BUT I will add you and make sure you see how I dance :).

[TimothyLeDancer]

@workkmeoutt kk, if u are better than her i take back the last comment :P lol

[LovesLamps]

Lovely, lovely timing - and a beautiful dance. Congratulations to both dancer and choreographer (so often forgotten).

[craziibabiix753]

just alittle tight!

but man, r u good!

[purplenwhitestripes]

Dancing on stairs is hard.

That was so precise :D

She looks a tad tight though.

JUST A TAD

[Riverbuddy]

that floor makes her taps sound amazing!

[PsychoticGeek23]

this is great... i love it.

[clsoccrstr584]

speed?

[Irishchickadee38]

@clsoccrstr584 the speeds 109

[mkirishdancer]

i want to learn king of the faeries so bad!! i only do st. patricks day for trad set... hopefully soon

[PsychoticGeek23]

i have a sheet music gif of it. it isn't that hard, it just has some high notes in it. i can send it to you if you like.

[pheona1000]

Her timing is amazingly accurate.

Loved the music as it actually complimented the dancer and did not drown her out.

[InCupsOfCoffee821]

How does she make her trebles sound like that???

[reelirishboy5]

I'm pretty sure its a combination of 1) her incredible timing and 2) the quality floor she's on. Hardwood floors make a very distinctive sound. But man, is she good!

[princesscammy88]

hop on your back, nice and loud, before and after your treble and pick up your treble foot before and after your treble.

[irishdancerox123]

She is so good! Oh my gosh!

[SimpleBum]

wow the rhythm!!!

[Bookwormclodee]

WOW!

[zefronftw]

anyone know wat type of heavys shoes shes wearing wot make?

[Ceiligirl]

What school/ region is she from? It's absolutely lovely!!!

[mikenocek]

Glenbrook South High School - Glenview, Illinois

[mairead027]

Ha! I went to GBS...many many years ago. Played in the Jazz band during the v-shows

[speakforyourself85]

I love this-it's my fav set-she is an amazingly talented dancer :)

[nicolexsupamanthatho]

I dance with stephanie!!

yes she's still dancing, and yes she's still amazing!

[jirihozpodebrad23]

...my goodness - this is absolutely great!!! wow... those points!!! *faints*:)!!!

[annecheetham1]

Fabulous! Hope you keep it up when you are older. Music was brilliant.

[ondangerousground]

King of the Fairies is my FAVOURITE set dance. Beautiful interpretation!

[flonkoo]

excelent feet placings and steps

[headraiders]

beautiful!!!

[FeisGirl]

what speed?

[tamegomaith93]

Might be around 105, but thats judging from my metronome. I'm not completely sure if there's any specific way to count irish music

[InCupsOfCoffee821]

Sounds a tiny bit slower than the speed I dance it, so I'm guessing 108?

[jirihozpodebrad23]

i LOVE the close up of the points...:)!

[shaunaghssox]

every competitive irish dancer has to wear a wigs and poodle socks thats whats all about being a competitive irish dancer whether you're in commission comhdhail cdrm or any other organisation.

[H1ldaMat1lda]

Very beautiful and graceful, I never understood why commission dancers wear ridiculous wigs and thick sheep like socks. You would have looked stunning traditionally dressed and interpreting the music as you did.

[Rose375]

I agree, the outfits are really heavy and hard to dance in, and they aren't that pretty. I'm not very excited for my solo dress. But this girl is amazing.

[unicornsrpretty]

whoa...

friggin' amazing...

definitely one of the better dancers featured on YouTube.

[kimmiekate12324]

nice rythem!

you dance it so clearly

[hunnibunnigirlabi]

reli gd !!! very together and neat !!! loved it

[FeisGirl]

that was awesome!

[cometirish]

Really nice!  I wish I could have seen your dress better, though.

[jomamma666890]

ik its prbly not your coreography(sp?) but i think it would look nicer if you did toe walks where you just stayed on the balls of you feet when you were moving accross the stage. absolutly FABULOUS otherwise, great dancer

[irishdancer66]

I go to the same school and do that dance. There are suppossed to be toe walks there. I am guessing it was slippery. :]

[xxSexydancerxx]

Flawless!!!!...and very cnsistant!

loved it!!

hannah!

xx

[FREEASTHESTARS]

amazing!!

[irishdog1000]

usa, o'hare in illinois

[xglittergorex]

Is this girl from the UK or USA?

[shorty08219]

whoa do u go to ohare?!?! i recognized the set and could dance along w u cuz its wat my friend does

[Teelin06]

Great job!

[dancerdolfins]

wow...that was amazing!

[AaronShaunBrennan]

TOO MUCH LIGHT!! Good dancer though!

[gingerysweets]

gorgeous! i'm jealous!

[bbfrain]

Bring yourself up to the front at the end of the set. Going to the back (off to the left) made it look like you had lost your direction. Your rhythm is beautiful, your toe work is beautiful. It's a beautiful set

[SHAKAKNOSE]

Yes I agree you are a good dancer but i think you should work on your stamina a little bit as your starting to slip towards the end.LOTS OF PASTA.

But good work!!

[metwinkletoes967]

absolutley amazing!

[IHARTID]

turn out your feet and make shure ur legs dont go too gappy "

[irishdancechik04]

I wish i could dance like that. then i wouldn't have any worries about not going to oireachtas or nationals! amazing!

[gemwayker]

gorgeous darling!!!! ;)

[Starshine1386]

its so nice to see someone who actually puts energy into this set. what a difference it makes (:

[MinnyMouse23]

wow this video is amazing, i just wish the video quality was better! you can barely see her its so bright, sound could be better too. but still awesome!

[anitajd]

i loved it!!and the toe stands looked amazing!

[irishdncerchamp]

That's great!!!! too bad the video quality isn't better. great dancing and wonderful toe stands.

[xxSexydancerxx]

LOvely dancer!!!...great rytem...and brilliant toe walks!!

[rince02]

beautiful dancing! awesome rhythm as well!

[compass87]

Very Nice!

[iPoeky]

Gorgeous dancer.......beautiful dance for a wee show like this.....well done!

[elliebelliejellie]

I agree with muramatsugx. I love the complex rythmy bits though. Now I'm worried about my set hahahaha.

[muramatsugx]

she's a great dancer but i personally think the choreography is boring...

[keepingfaith6]

I disagree with you.Shes a lovely dancer and the choreography fits Stephanie amazingly. you cant even see her dance that well because of the lighting. So before you say anything about the choreography being boring...try and watch the dance in person.

[minipoppy37]

beautiful dancing! and pretty dress! congrats!

xxx

[kelleebell]

WOW! that was FANTASTIC!

[eefers28]

really nice set,that floor looks lethal but your rhythm is still fantastic

[saoirse3473]

omg...shes really good!
