Shot at Cloonacauneen Castle, all
Ceili sets are danced in their entirety. The instructor explains intricate
movements in an easy to understand detailed fashion within each figure,
including an explanation of the most commonly used terminology
in set dancing. The dance instruction is provided

instructors. Instructors and dancers include Pat Murphy, Betty Mc Coy, Padraig & Roisin McEneaney, Tony Ryan, Aidan Vaughan, John Henchy, Eileen
O'Doherty, Terry Moylan, Johnny Morrissey and many more. Irish Set and Ceili dance tradition
has its own history, and ever since the first ceilis were held in the
1890’s, the ceili phenomenon has spread from Ireland to the four corners
of the world. The tutors featured on this DVD have
ensured through their teaching that the unique characteristics of these
dances remain intact and that the dances are preserved in the best way
