LEARN ST. PATRICK'S DAY - Irish Dance - GRADE EXAM 4

This video is to help MJP dancers and other Irish Dancers learn how to do the traditional set St. Patrick’s Day which is in Grade Exam 4. First I show you how to do the lead around slowly on the Right foot, facing away from the camera, followed by the second part (set) of the dance.

Next I show you the whole dance to music so you can learn how it fits.

The second half of the video breaks down and explains all the difficult tricks or the things you should know when performing this dance such as: Ending on the wrong foot, 5 beat heels, Heel Tips, and how to Remember the set Better. I hope this video helps you to learn this dance and/or to prepare for your grade exam 4!

Happy Practicing and Good Luck!

Thank you very much! It's actually much easier to understand the dance like this than via Zoom (my classes are online now)!

Great video! Thanks so much. Do you know if CLRG will accept the Mollyneaux versions of St. Patrick's Day and Blackbird on grade exams and TCRG exams? Or do they only accept these versions? Thank you - JD, Western US region.
