Celtic Bompa and Mick Mulkerrin, Irischer Herbst 2004, Proitzer Muhle Here are three advance & retire steps that were taught. Click on the titles to see a video clip.

1) Advance & retire for reels by Mick Mulkerrin

For practising purposes, it is good to separate the step in the following sequences of each 1 bar, with an additional up beat for the first bar. When a particular step takes no weight, we put it in italics:

  • / R-heel-down - // L-step-left-forward R-step-behind / L-step-left-fwd - / R-step-right-fwd - /R-heel-down -//
  • // L-stamp - / R-step-forward L-heel-brush / L-tip L-down / R-step-forward - //
  • // R-step-back L-heel-down / R-heel-down - / L-step-back R-heel-down / L-heel-down - //
  • // R-stamp L-heel-brush / L-tip L-down / R-step-forward - /
