Irish dance comes in several forms, which can be divided into social dances and performance dances. Irish social dance is a living tradition, and variations in the way a particular dance is danced are found across the Irish dance community. Irish stepdancing as a modern form is discended directly from "old style" stepdancing. There are several different forms of stepdancing in Ireland but the style most familiar is the southern form.Irish solo stepdances fall into two broad categories bades on the shoes worn: hard shoe and soft shoe dances. Soft shoe dances include the reel, slip jig, light jig and single jig. Hard shoe dances include the hornpipe, the treble jig, the treble reel, and traditional sets, which are a group of 30 dances with wet choreography and various rhythms.
