Irish Dancing

Is it nerdy that I have a sudden interest in Irish dancing? I was introduced to it during my vacation in Fuerteventura, in one of the night shows which was an interpretation of Riverdance. (If you've never heard of Riverdance, which I hadn't either, its a "theatrical show consisting of traditional Irish stepdancing, known for its rapid leg movements" according to Wikipedia)
The music enchanted me; It was magical. Look at the video below. The dancers look so light on their feet and like they're having so much fun! Isn't it amazing how fast they move?
 I feel like joining them on stage.
Not that I'm able to prance around like that.
Yet.

 
 
The good news is, I might be able to take classes. Believe it or not, the former leader of Riverdance teaches classes right outside of Lyon! Is it a sign that I must take Irish dancing classes? I mean, how fortunate is it that I am so close to one of the most successful Irish dancers in the world?
Quelle coïncidence!
