5/20/2014

 
We have asked our 2014 High School Graduates to share their thoughts, tips and advice for our younger Team McBride Grade and Championship Dancers who are working diligently to reach their goals in Irish Dance.

This is what Rozana Shemirani (California High Class of 2014) told us:

"Never Lower Your Goal Just Because You Think You Cannot Achieve It!"

We cannot agree with you more Rozana!

Irish Dancing Back In The Day - We have Come A Long Way Baby!

5/5/2014

 
Ever wonder what Irish Dancing looked like in the day.  Below you will find several YouTube clips of Irish dancing from 1928, 1926,  and 1963.   In the first clip, the dancers are performing the Fairy Reel, a 3 hand reel and an 2 hand jig.  See if you can follow, as the older clips do not have sound.  The Second clip is dancers competing at the 1926 All Ireland Competition.  The final clip is of John Cullinane dancing a hard jig in 1963.  Mr. Cullinane is revered as the most knowledgeable man in Irish Dance, and has written many books on the subject.  One book he wrote even has Ann McBride in it.
