St Patrick's Day (old style)

Despite its name, the St. Patrick's Day dance can be performed on any other day, which is what we took advantage of here.
We usually have snow and blizzards in March, so we’re tearing up the patterns with the cheeky green of the grass and trees!
What I especially like about the old style is that you can dance all the steps from start to finish and not die. We managed to catch Maria Fadeeva, Ekaterina Marcus, Olga Serebrova, Irina Kremenetskaya and Elena Myskova at one time and in one place and film them in action.😜
A huge thank you to Annette Collins for letting us use her charming recording of this traditional tune!

I really like this, it is charming and it's what I imagine traditional Irish dance was before it became "Riverdance-ified". Much as I loved Riverdance as a revolutionary piece of dance, I think it is a pity that it has totally changed the nature of traditional dance, making it overly showy and flamboyant, with the huge wigs and super-sparkly outfits. I see the same thing happening with traditional Scottish Highland dancing.

Thank you so much for your comment! It is true that tradition is gradually fading, and it is essential to keep it alive while we can. ❤️
