Sean Nos Dancing is an old style traditional form of dancing that originated in the Connemara region (west coast of Ireland). This is a low to ground stepping out to the music, very relaxed, similar to tap dance. This is not the stage show event like the Step Dancing you see in productions of Riverdance.

Sean Nos dancing is a very impromptu, rhythmic, and low key accompaniment to a lively traditional Irish band. The footwork "battering" is great fun to watch and listen to. These are typically done as a solo performer or in very small groups and are well suited to all ages. (often times the best sean nos dancers, are the old timers in the dark corners of the pub).
