Tapping is good for brain health too…like doing puzzles! Do it for fun, it might be a struggle in the beginning, but just keep working at it and it will start to click! 😃
It absolutely is Irish dancing. Gorgeous! Thanks for adding your beautiful vision to the Irish sounds and steps ❤
People that criticize her that she’ll never be Irish .. umm duh? Lol does anyone doing a style of dance do it to transform into a new ethnicity ? Get real. lol
Uh oh! Isn't that cultural appropriation, lol??
She is a terrific dancer! You go girl!
I don't se the the point in mentioning her skin colour? What has that got to do with her dancing?
She’s a skilled and talented creative. Her art is her dance.
So… she's viral because she's Black and she dances Irish. So if I'm from South America and want to start dancing Irish, will I be interviewed? I hope there will come a time when you can dance without prejudices and not feel that this is amazing. It's just a woman dancing.
Higher education in dance??? What a waste of time and money.
Higher education should be for things that matter.
The beauty of dance is there is no color. Only music, rhythm, and your heart. The rest is NOISE ! Dancing is how we the dancers tell you how we feel.
It's nice to see a black Irish dancer, as you never see many of them. I hope we can see more from Kait, because we're all rooting for her!
isn't that what dance is about?
Who
God bless no one can curse.
Culture should be shared and built upon in a respectful manner. What this woman is doing is a beautiful thing.
So this cultural appropriation is okay? And then not only that, she bastardized it.
But what if white people steal Black culture? Irish were occupied and starved and were enslaved by Britain. We are forgotten constantly and now you're stealing tgeir identity and calling it retribution for what white settlers in America did?
I think she is brilliant. But my Grandfatger is Black South African and Black America gate keep white people celebrating Black culture calling it theft. I hope you see tgat sometimes,, it's it's respectful tribute. As I think this dancer above intends. Maybe the elite egg us on, to divide and conquer. But sharing creates beauty, proof above.
Love it!!!!
The Irish Dance is Sacred…?
White people do African dance they’re considered racist I consider this racist too.
I know somewhere someone is mad about this lol
She’s awesome.
You don’t have to be Irish to dance in this style, some people are idiots and don’t think, they just spew words out of their mouth like sewer water 🤮
Black people don't go to school to learn how to dance; Black people are the dance.
I remember in high school there was an Irish dance team and I was interested and they told me I would have to take a blood test!
Americans seem to have an unhealthy obsession with anything race-related. This fixation often fuels division and distracts from more constructive conversations. The comment about how some people try to make "her feel like she doesn't belong" is utter garbage.
this is absolutely brilliant. and yeah, ANY person who posts even a single video publically has to have a little bit of a thick skin about it. I'm glad she's got ways to counteract that. <3
