Clicks (Irish dance)


Clicks are a type of step in Irish dance.

When an Irish dancer does clicks he or she jumps in the air with their legs out. While in mid-air the dancer's feet go up and down. Dancers can do both front andbackclicks, though front clicks are more common. (Back clicks are considered harder to do and have an injury hazard).
