Let's be honest, who among us hasn’t at some stage in our lives attempted to the "Riverdance"? Well, now all that practise can be put to good use because this July Riverdancers in Cork and Dublin can be a part of a very special Gathering 2013 world record attempt.
Granted not every can dance and they want to make sure everyone involved has been brought up to scratch on the ‘ol a haon, a do, a trí, so both Dublin and Cork will be hosting pop-up dance classes on Saturday 29th of June. For two hours, the dancers of Riverdance will be taking to the streets of Dublin and Cork to teach you some easy dance steps.
Whether you are the next Jean Butler, or simply want to learn a few of the iconic Riverdance steps - just stop by the pop-up classes, and you will be equipped with the tools you need to take part in a once in a lifetime opportunity to break the world's longest Riverdance line. If you fancy getting jiggy with the Riverdance crew check out the full details below:
