Every few years, there's a dance craze that takes over the world. Whether you're doing the Macarena, the Hustle, or shaking it Gangnam style, you're exploring dance culture at its most popular. Check out highlights below!

But one dance craze that has proved its staying power is Riverdance. The awe-inspiring display of tap and Irish step dancing grew from the Michael Flatley signature event to an international phenomenon that spans cultures and countries. It's become a powerful movement in the world of dance, bringing a style usually reserved for tradition into the mainstream.

BroadwayHD has not one, not two, but five Riverdance titles for your enjoyment.

The beauty of Riverdance is in its complexity. Unlike the Macarena, Hustle, or Gangnam style, it's not designed for the average person to be able to do. That said, we hope it doesn't stop you from dancing along to these great specials in your living room.
