The video, which features 65 Irish dancers, has since gained more than 5k likes on Facebook.
Chris Naish, the founder of and artistic director at Fusion Fighters, told IrishCentral: “Fusion Fighters are well known for creating these compilation videos in the past and for using our platform to find creative ways to provide free entertainment, so this seemed like the perfect time to all come together in these unprecedented times to get creative to both entertain our audience and give the Irish dancers in our community something to be a part of.
“The great thing about this is that Irish dancers from all over the world can apply to take part in the next versions - all they need to do is send us an HD video filmed sideways / horizontal of them Irish dancing acapella (no music) to reel timing on wooden flooring."
Naish is encouraging Irish dancers everywhere to submit their videos to FFVideoFeature@gmail.com.

About Fusion Fighters
Fusion Fighters is a progressive performance company and online community first launched on St. Patrick’s Day 2013 at the Mayor of London Festival in Trafalgar Square.
Since then, they have branched away from what has become the typical Irish dance experience in order to evolve for a modern audience while still preserving their traditions. The initiative has continued to grow and has now established itself worldwide working intensively in the creation, production, and delivery of unique campaigns and community projects. With their message of ‘Creativity and Inclusion,’ they offer a range of projects to include dancers of all ages and levels.
