Hop Step Move in Irish Step Dancing

On behalf of Expert Village my name is Niall O'Leary from the Niall O'Leary School of Irish Dance in New York City and today I'm demonstrating beginner soft shoe Irish dance. This next combination is hop heal step and of course we are doing combination here we are not doing actual dances but these are all technique moves that you put in Irish dances. So this one hop heel step. You begin with a hop like we did before hop, then your rotate your ankle to get a heel, put your weight on your heel momentarily and then step back. So here your flexing your foot for the heel. Watch again hop, heel, step so your never take your foot off the floor like this your toes are pointed for the hop, flex it for the heel and then you take your heel to whatever is next. So watch again it is called hop heal step ready and hop heel step.
