Irish dancing is pretty much just swinging your legs around in fancy ways and you will have the same genre of music. With tap dancing you have metal attached to the bottom of your shoes and it makes a noise, you can make any rhythm, beat, or sound you can with these. You also will not be sticking to the same genre of music with tap dancing. Tap dancing is really great, no offense to any Irish dancers.

Also in Irish you keep very straight and your arms at your sides. Whereas in tap dancing you use your arms and you have to bend your legs and bounce but not too much.

This answer was written by by person who is deeply prejudiced and clearly knows nothing about irish dance ^. Please do your research before answering these questions. Watch the movie 'jig' for an idea of irish dance or watch it at a competition, visit the irish dance section on dance.net, the clrg website or irish dancing.com for more. As an irish dancer as well as a Ballet and modern jazz dancer I know the person speaking isn't a true dancer as they wouldn't have the disrespect for another dance form if they were. I think tap dancing is really cool, but this answer isn't.
