Traveling and adventure always go hand in hand. There’s just something so exciting about not knowing what to expect in a new place. You could be dining out one minute and partying with locals the next, or simply walking the streets of a strange city and suddenly being met with colorful sights and wonderful personalities.
That’s why traveling is said to do so much for one’s growth and well-being.
It offers education outside the four walls you’ve grown accustomed to, boosts your confidence and urges you to break out of your shell, enhances your creativity, and brings so many memories you can fondly look back on.
Another highlight is how cultures around the world promise many new experiences, much to the delight of travel bugs and the country’s own.
The Irish are known for this.
The people and their music, dance, art, cuisine, folklore, and so much more have the ability to make tourists feel like they’re traipsing from old times to now. They have colorful, traditional costumes that blend seamlessly with their singing and dancing, a positive outlook that inspires yours, and so much more.
In Galway, Ireland, it’s the street performers who offer much excitement as they give everyone a glimpse of Irish culture with their dancing. You’ll be compelled to stop, enjoy the show, and just take it all in.
These performances are always delightful to watch but it’s even better when the dancing is done by All-Ireland Champion, Emma O’Sullivan.
Raised in Connemara, Ireland, the striking dancer is also known as the Queen of Sean-nós.
She’s toured the world, sprinkling Ireland’s magic all over as she showcases her dance skills set to traditional Irish music.
Emma unfailingly attracts crowds wherever and whenever she dances.
During one particular street performance, Emma caught the attention of a small member of the audience. While the rest stood and watched in awe, one decided to join in.
It was an adorable little girl who wanted to dance alongside the pro. When Emma noticed she had company, she smiled and immediately shared the stage, even gesturing to her videographer to record the tiny dancer moving adorably beside her. A natural, the little girl concentrated on copying Emma’s move by watching the pro dancer’s feet carefully. You’ll love the growing confidence of the little girl and how she added her own style to it.
She stole the show, that’s for sure!
And the famous dancer? Well, Emma loved every minute of it.
The little girl’s family and most of the people watching couldn’t resist recording the entire performance, a welcome treat which earned loud applause. Even Emma applauded her little dance partner, who responded by clapping herself. It’s instances like these that remind you of just how much each day holds. From mundane to magical, these two definitely made the day brighter for everyone watching.
It was a brilliant street performance that captured so much: the little girl’s confidence, talent, and eagerness to dance, and Emma’s kindness and humility.
Press play and enjoy the show!
