- O Michael Flatley είναι Ιρλανδο-Αμερικανός χορευτής και δημιουργός των μιούζικαλ «Lord of the Dance», «Riverdance», «Feet of Flames» και «Celtic Tiger». Γεννήθηκε στις 16 Ιουλίου 1958 στο Σικάγο και είναι Ιρλανδικής καταγωγής.
Ξεκίνησε τα πρώτα του βήματα στον Ιρλανδικό χορό και στις κλακέτες στα 11. Στα 17 κέρδισε τον διαγωνισμό Ιρλανδικού χορού στην Αμερική. Μετά τις σπουδές άνοιξε σχολή χορού. Το 1994 με την συνεργασία του Jean Butler δημιούργησε το σόου «Riverdance» που πρωτοπαρουσιάστηκε στο διαγωνισμό τραγουδιού της Eurovision την ίδια χρονιά. Είχε μεγάλη επιτυχία και εξακολουθεί να παίζεται μέχρι σήμερα. Μετά το «Riverdance» συνέχισε το 1996 με το «The Lord of the Dance» που εντυπωσίασε στην απονομή βραβείων Όσκαρ το 1997. Ίσως είναι η μεγαλύτερη του επιτυχία και συνεχίζεται να παίζεται έως σήμερα. Ο Michael Flatley δεν χορεύει πλέον στις περιοδείες του «The Lord of the dance». Σε κάθε παράστασή του μιούζικαλ χτυπιέται 150.000 φορές η κλακέτα. Ένα εκατομμύριο CD και 9 εκατομμύρια βίντεο της παράστασης έχουν πωληθεί μέχρι τώρα. Η παράσταση έχει παιχτεί σε 30 χώρες συμπεριλαμβανομένης και τις Ελλάδας.
Επόμενο βήμα του ήταν το «Feet of Flames» το 1998 το οποίο πρωτοπαρουσιάστηκε στο Hyde Park του Λονδίνου. Τα κύρια στοιχεία του δεν διαφέρουν ιδιαίτερα από το «The Lord of the Dance». To αποκορύφωμα της παράστασης ήταν όταν το 2000 παίχθηκε μπροστά σε 100.000 θεατές στην Βουδαπέστη. Η τελευταία παράσταση του ήταν το 2001. Σε κάθε παράσταση ο Michael Flatley έχανε 5 κιλά βάρος , κυρίως υγρά. Αρκετά αργότερα, στα 47, το 2005 δημιουργεί το «Celtic Tiger» στο οποίο συμμετείχε χορεύοντας. Ή πορεία του μιούζικαλ δεν ήταν μεγάλη αφού τον Νοέμβριο του 2006 αρρώστησε και οι παραστάσεις ματαιώθηκαν. Σήμερα πλέον παίζεται το «The Lord of the Dance» από τέσσερις διαφορετικές διανομές χορευτών.
Το πάθος του για τον χορό τον απόκτησε από την γιαγιά του που και αυτή ήταν πρωταθλήτρια στον Ιρλανδικό χορό. Σε κάθε παράσταση αφήνει μία κενή θέση προς τιμή της. Αν και πετυχημένος μποξέρ άφησε την αθλητική του καριέρα και αφιερώθηκε στον χορό. Εκτός από εξαιρετικός χορευτής είναι πολύ ικανός στο φλάουτο. Κατείχε το ρεκόρ γκίνες στις κλακέτες με 38 χτυπήματα της κλακέτας το δευτερόλεπτο.
Michael Ryan Flatley (born July 16, 1958 in Chicago, Illinois) is an Irish step dancer from the south side of the city. His parents were from County Sligo and County Carlow. As a child, he moved to Chicago - the city which he considers his home town. He began dancing lessons at 11 and, in 1975, became the first non-European resident to win the All-Ireland World Championship for Irish dance. As a trained boxer he won the Chicago Golden Gloves Championship in 1975. Flatley is also known as being a proficient flautist, having twice won the All-Ireland Competition. His first dance teachers were his mother and his grandmother Hannah Ryan, an Irish horse dancing champion. After graduating from Brother Rice High School, on Chicago's South Side, he opened a dance school.
His first professional break came when he joined The Chieftains for tours in the 1980s. He co-created the initial choreography for Riverdance and, with fellow lead dancer Jean Butler, led the show to great success as the intermission act in the Eurovision Song Contest on April 30, 1994. Flatley and Butler then starred in the full-length show that was developed from the original seven-minute act. After leaving the show due to creative disagreements,[1] Flatley produced, directed, and choreographed his own show, Lord of the Dance. In 1998, Flatley put together a dance production called Feet of Flames, a version of which toured the US in 2000 and 2001.
Flatley's current Irish dance show is Celtic Tiger, which opened in July 2005. The show explores the history of the Irish people and Irish immigration to the US and fuses a wide range of dance styles, including jazz. The show also includes popular elements from his previous shows, such as Flatley's flute solos and the line of dancers in the finale. Flatley released his own autobiographical book titled Lord of the Dance: My Story in March 2006. Regarding his future plans, Flatley was quoted in the Celtic Tiger program book as saying, "I will be a dancer until the day I die."
latley received the National Endowment for the Arts' National Heritage Fellowship in 1988 and was named one of National Geographic Society's Living Treasures in 1991 for mastery of a traditional art form - the youngest person at that time ever to receive this accolade. In May of 1989, Flatley set a Guinness Book world record for tapping speed at 28 taps per second; when this record was broken, he set another record in February of 1998, by achieving 35-foot (11 m) taps per second. The current record holder is Michael Donnellan, at 40 taps per second.

This Man can sure Strut his Stuff !! Yeeeha 💞
Well, hes got the stuff to strut, wish I was all those girls he kisses, hmmmm...
I wish I could find the video of the end of this, where mairead nesbitt was standing on one of the forward circles playing and they were doing encores and he got behind her and started dancing against her and then he moved away and did more encores, he kept asking if the audience wanted more, but he had on the white jacket and headband
Carol Watson I know you said this 2 years ago, but if you still want to find it/ haven’t already search ‘Lord Of The Dance Finale’ and I’m sure it’s the first video that comes up.
Fantastic!!!!
i wish that every man could walking in pants like this guy has :DD
On dancing with the stars when Michael was there in 2008 they said that this was put together new especially for that show but this is exactly the same dance but with less dancers
Thingy Lol yep. Same with alot of other tv performances. It's always this one.
It's like if Michael Jackson was a tap dancer he would be the Michael Flatly of this performance
maravilloso.
Bravo!👏💐
Best Showman since P.T. Barnum !
my brain is still making that clicking sound
lord of the dance final
😂😂😂
AMAZING!!!!
what a shame, but thx so much for your comment. I still feel like I need them both on DVD.^^
Wow amazing, love it! thx for posting!
Can someone help me please? Some music parts I know from LOTD are also in FOF! have they both mostly the same music and just different settings or are they completly different?
It's basically just improved but some differences and additions.
just WOW!!!!
And here we see a traditional Celtic mating ritual.
Madeleine Pearson excellent !!! Ahahahaha
And pure talent !
Amazing dance!
thx for the help. I've seen the DVD now, which helped to solve all confusion. ;-)
am I the only one who thinks the tapping (especially in the section starting at 2:41 ) sounds like the background/in between parts of “Run Boy Run” by Woodkid?
brilliant
why watch if yuu dont like?
Que schou. ..maravilhoso
BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT BRILLIANT
Amazing. Xxx
Супер
he can do 40 steps per second.. this is absolutely crazy!
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
And every boy said dancing was for girls. Well, they're WRONG!!
jasminne mcdonald nobody ever said that
Ballet is for girls
Oh look at Michael, everyone, he's straight, you know? He proves it here. Multiple times.
Who ever could think he wasnt??
I love this. Can anyone tell me though what are they saying though?
👏🏼⚡️⚡️⚡️🌟🌟🌟
If you search for "Michael Flatley speed" this video is the first result. That's why: 2:31
perfect TELEIO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:44 “Oh, you son of a bitch. I thought we agreed upon no kissing during the performance!”
Does anyone know where the full version of this is? It used to be on here..
Украина тоже в восторге !!!
@RiderOfTheGod
i quite agree ;D
Ноги надо беречь.......
He was hot in those days
Ma ne dumme Frage: warum hört man keinen störenden Ton wenn er über den Boden läuft? Müsste man da wegen der speziellen absätze nicht auch einen hören?
Nein, weil er dann anders läuft. nämlich so das man kein Step hört!
Leute genießt diese Auftritte guckt sie an löst euch von dem Scheißfernsehen 👍🌹😝
O MG
devotedsub einai eksairetiko... me kathulwse kuriolektika!!!
mpravo sou pou to anevases
When your feet do the dance
nos vestimos la misma
i completely agree but in LOTD he is not as bad
Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures was buried and rose again on the third day according to the scriptures 1Corinthians 15:3
Name. Is. Ruth. .schaffer
What a silly dance.
How does this gimmick not get old after the first few minutes.
oh right lol makes more sense
Born in Chicago and fooled the world that he was Irish when his mother is Cherokee
qoaa His mother is a 4x4?
That would explain his sure footedness.
Ireland made America, so yes Michael is Irish. We are loved world over. Get over your self
@@bid84 what's your,s?a six by six ?
zajebiste...
Michael Jackson meets Irish dancing
did all of them just scream "sex" at 2:04?
thanks!
I say "thanks"
D
Such a spectacular dancer. What a shame he was led by his ego to vulgarise what with Riverdance had been near perfection.
The dancers are amazing but his posturing and ego is just criiiiiiiiiiiinge.
Pan Dora well he is American 😂
I agree. Far better than I could ever do. No doubt about it. What I don't understand is why Mr. Flatley is putting the moves on that woman over and over, while he's clearly gay.
How can he be gay hes married with children with a former dancer from the show and if I could dance like that I would be a happy man but after the show him and most of the dancers stand in dustbins full of ice water to stop the pain and swelling posturing I don't think so!!!
you are too used to soy boys
hey dont drink cows!. ?? is tht wat they say lol?
chiddy55 😂😂
why am i seeing this shit?
1:18 How the hell can Flatley be a Nazi when he looks gay?
He definitely ain't Nazi my friend, but as Irish as what Irish Whiskey is. Listen to an interview and is NOOOO German accent honey👌😉
Pretending to be Michael Jackson again...
You mean, dead?
Collin Dunne is much much better. And this guy is a true SMUG. yyyuuukkkhhh, i hate his performance. Trying hard by acting, hate that, not genuine at all
ruby hus just go watch Collin’s channel then and leave us alone.
