Just returned to this video after not seeing for a while - I am the choreographer (and main dancer) and I am blown away by all the comments from people all around the world! Thanks for the love even after 8 years since we made this video!

[@suzanailhabarretoviana1863]

Just because you deserve it! You are an awesome group! 💯

[@julijopeterson7096]

You bet!

[@BlakLupina08]

as a fellow irishman far from my homeland, i love watching all sorts of dance here, but its the the familiar steps of Ireland that i miss most. incredible work throughout

[@funo6581]

I didn’t even realize it was 8 yrs. old until I read your comment. Amazing dancing and wonderful choreography! I love the joyful energy of Tap dancing, it always makes me smile. Your video took me back to my 6 yr. old self doing shuffle ball change.. occasionally in sync with my classmates, while a crackling 45 record played Hard Hearted Hannah (The Vamp of Savannah) as loud as our teachers suitcase record player would go. :) Thanks for that too

[@aidashabani7648]

My jaw dropped watching this. I have a question though, is it taxing on the knees?

[@keldaogg2157]

You know what I like best? The smiles. Theirs and the one they put on my face!

[@StarCoded]

I think the smiles deflect from the stunning skill, strength, and grace. Almost anyone can smile, but...

[@fuldagermany]

Am I the only how the art form of tap dancing in any fashion ever came about ... of course, we might ask ourselves that question about many things however I'm thinking about dance at the moment cuz I've been watching different types of dancing this evening. And they all have their bits of excellence that stand out and these dancers and this video I found to be quite elegant among other positive aspects.

[@ejanocrowsnatcher]

@@StarCoded I dunno I think it enhances it. Like they are REALLY enjoying being awesome

[@nanettewatkins7310]

Time well spent for all involved in the making of this video!! Simply excellent! This is one of the things that the world needs more of; real worthwhile entertainment and positive energy spent!

[@SkipSams]

This is so beautiful. As a former dancer who gave up too soon, this brought tears to my eyes. This performance was nothing less than perfection. Thank you, to the dancers and filmmakers, for saying YES to your gifts. You are amazing.

[@bexaidacandelaria5128]

Same…old dancer here who walked away to become a mom & serve country. No regrets, but my entire body began to twitch, wanting to join in-as if. Did you find yourself counting? 5-6-7-EIGHT! This brought HUGE smile to my face!!
