You cannot beat perfection. If it was not for Michael Flatley, none of the other Irish dance shows would exist today. Met him on several occasions, always a gent. His troupes are always fantastic, great bunch of people. The whole thing is magical. and that is an understatement.

Flatley is one of a kind. Who can dance like that at any age.. let alone his age. The man is a legend!!

Feather Fawn He truly is one of a kind. On top of dancing he was also a Golden globe boxer and he played the flute. Multi-talented man to say the least. Plus he can still dance like that with some serious injuries he has to deal with from dancing this long. Let's not forget his amazing choreography skills, since he does that and puts the show together. He was 57 here. He would of been dancing for 47 years at this point. That's a lot of work. The abuse on his entire body is unreal. I hope by the time I get there that I can still move like that. Ok, close you having that energy anyway. I will never dance like that. I don't have that energy now and I'm 25ish yrs behind him. I'm depressing myself now. I thought I was in shape, until I started thinking about it. Softball, volleyball, etc have nothing on dancing like this. That's an extreme sport not dancing. I'm trying to make myself feel better here. 😬😬😂😂☹️☹️😢

I had the pleasure to watch Michael flatleys dancers in Berlin 2 years ago, they’re still AWESOME without him!! But he will always be the LORD of the dance

Those dancers are just so magnificent.

Whenever I have had the opportunity to witness any of Michael Flatley's performances, it sends chills up my spine. I have seen his performance when he visited Chicago and I was simply awestruck! I am certain the performers who trained under him were super excited and fortunate to have learned from, who in my opinion, one of the best at the craft and art of dance. 💗💗

I will always regret never having the privilege of seeing Lord of the Dance live. Truly amazing performers.

As an Irish dancer that has been dancing for at least 5 years this is what I aspire to do. I have been working toward an Irish team and a chance to go to at least local competitions and I got to that this year. I am now on my local Irish team and I'm going to at least 1 competition this year. I can't wait to get as far as I Can. This is what inspired me when I was little to start dancing. Thank you Mr Flatley for helping me get this far. Irish dance helped me so much and it makes me feel free from my restraints hard shoes are My personal favorite no matter how hard they are to dance in they are the most amazing sounding shoes you will ever put on your feet if you know what you're doing.
