Do Irish dancers wear bloomers under their dresses?

Irish dancers don't wear bloomers, but wear more of a pair of giant knickers.-Actually yes, they do wear bloomers. I am an Irish dancer and most people wear bloomers under their dress so when they kick high, you don't see their underwear. Some people wear tights instead of bloomers, but only if it matches their dress.


Why is Irish dance performed?

Same reason any dance is - people enjoy it. Irish dance is a very beautiful dance.


Why can't white people dance?

It's a matter of culture, not physiology. It would be better to say why can't people from Germanic cultures dance. The Spanish certainly have a very strong dance tradition as to the Gaels with their Irish and Scots Step dance. Check out 'Flamenco' and 'Riverdance' before saying 'White people can't dance.' In Riverdance 'Lord of the Dance' there is a interesting competitive display of Irish step alongside African - American dance. It might change your mind about 'white people can't dance' They can dance, just not in the way that other cultures like.


Who created the Irish dance?

In what country did tap dancing start?

Tap dancing is actually an American form of dance. It is a blend of Irish step and African gumboot dancing. When both African Americans and the Irish were oppressed they somehow came together and tap was formed; a blend of steps from the Irish and rhythm and style from the African Americans. African Americans were not allowed to perform at first so minstrel shows were done by white people and they would black out their faces to make fun of the black dancers.

Do you need Irish?

You don't need the Irish language. It is useful at times though.
