I took a workshop with the amazing Emma. She is a Sean Nos dancer alone; not modern Irish, this young woman is so the real deal!

give her 2 sticks

@vexakin I see what you mean, but this sort of dancing is still clearly distinguishable from any sort of step dance.
What sean nos dancing really reminds me most of is clogging from Appalachia.

Too dark. Can't see what on earth she is doing!

I love what she does at 2:25

Sean Nos dancing is soooo similiar to Prince Edward Island step dance,just you tube "PEI step dance" to see what I mean,

She is fabulous and I absolutely love to watch her dance. But I am coming to hate the metal tap sound more and more the more I hear it. Same reason I prefer the Irish flute by far over the concert flute, just personal preference. But that is one of the things sean nos is all about - expressing your personal style.
Who says the true sean nos dancer dances without loud taps? Grand if you have heavy soles, the tips give extra emphasis to your rhythm. If you actualy pay attention you'll find Devanes have a pair ove boots with taps - which makes their dancing sound unreal!! Seosamh ó Neachtain, another fine dancer wears taps when he feels like it as do many other well known and well respected sean nos dancers.

who cares if she is wearing taps or not...it's what she is doing with her feet....chill out a bit and enjoy the hard work she has clearly put into her damhsa
