Hi lads,
I’m a little behind in getting out the steps. I have just posted the notes for the April 14th and April 21st classes on the blog.
Next week we will be covering more battering for the Galway and Clare sets. We will also be talking about Sean-nós dancer Máire Áine Ní hIarnáin. Máire Áine Ní hIarnáin is the 2004 second place winner of the Oireachtas. She won second the year Padraig Ó Hoibicín won first. She currently teaching sean-nós in Dublin and is a former student of Padraig Ó Hoibicín. She has a beautiful and graceful sean-nós style. Like Padraig she dances on and off the beat. If you would like to see a clip of her dancing she is in the 2005 Oireachtas that can be viewed online at TG4’s website http://www.tg4.ie/.
